Managing permissions in managed spaces

Managed space permissions control access to apps in the space. Permissions are assigned to members when they are added to a space.

Information noteManaged spaces are not available with Qlik Sense Business.

Managed spaces can only be created by tenant administrators. Tenant administrators, space owners, and users with Can manage permissions can add new members to the managed space. Space permissions are managed in Manage members. In Manage members, you search for cloud hub members and groups, assign them permissions, and add them to the managed space.

Member permissions can be changed to give them a new role in the space.

Members can be removed from a space in Manage members by clicking the delete icon beside the member.

Permissions in a managed space

Permissions in managed spaces give users a role and access rules in the space. Unlike shared spaces, members of a managed space can have multiple permissions applied to them. This enables customized access to the space for each member. If groups have been enabled by a tenant administrator, groups of users can be added to a space with the same permission.

What permissions enable for members varies depending on if they have a professional or an analyzer license.

Permissions for members with professional licenses

The following tables outline what members with the professional license can do in a space:
