Qliksense Security rules

Hi,

We are starting to set up our security rules for our organisation.

We have three types of users in the allocated AD Groups:

  1. Those who will only read apps (and not create apps)     :  AD Group = QSENSE_Basic
  2. Those who will read apps and create their own but unable to publish  : AD Group = QSENSE_Intermediate
  3. Admin type users who can create / publish / delete etc : AD Gourp = QSENSE_Advanced

Can anyone advise how to set up the security rules for this?

I can see that there are already a lot of 'out of the box' security rules - so are there any I need to disable to achieve this?

Many thanks for your help!

TJM

hi,

I hope, this will help:

In every rule you can set the parameter create, read and so on.

Hi Petra,

Where is the user.@AD_Group from? It's a custom property? and how this connects to the AD Group?

Thanks.

Hi David,

@AD_Group is a custom propertie, to show the case how to use security rulles for groups.

But if you have AD Groups, You will find them under user.group, with value you can see the groups in your AD.

means: ((user.group="XXX Consultants")) gives users in this Group access.

Hope, this helps,

regards,

Thanks Petra.

Weird thing is I don't have "group" , only name.ID,role and etc.

Any idea why the group didn't show up?

Hi David,

I don't know, why you don't see groups.

Please check your user directory connector.

We created a sync with all users and did not check "only existing users".

Maybe that's the difference?

Thanks, Petra.

Just figured out the problem. If I included the whole directory, the "group" appears.
