- Qlik Monitoring Apps API Key Rotator
This template is intended to be used alongside the “Qlik Cloud Monitoring Apps Installer” template. This automation provides the ability to keep the API key and associated data connection used for the Qlik Cloud Monitoring Apps up to date on a scheduled basis. Simply input the space ID where the ‘monitoring_apps_REST’ data connection should reside, and the automation will recreate both the API key and data connection regularly. Ensure that the cadence of the automation’s schedule is less than the expiry of the API key.
