Question regarding ownership of API Keys And schedules task in qlik saas

random_user_3869 — Wed, 19 Mar 2025 23:08:30 GMT

Hello everyone,

I created an API key for creating a link to qlik data transfert.

But as my contract expires soon for this company i will leave and my account will be deleted.

So my question is: after i leave will the API key i created will be deleted as well.

IS it needed for other user who have the professional licence to create other one.

Same question regarding data connection and task reload regarding qlik saas apps.

Thank you

Hello,

The API Keys are tied with the users and accounts as well. So, yes if you disable the user account then all API keys tied with that account will get de-activated as well.

Also, the reload task needs to be re-created as well. Because when the app triggers the reload, it will look for the app reload permission first and then trigger the reload, so it is expected that if the account gets disabled then the schedule reloads task will no longer be able to identify the permission.

The recommendation for a smooth migration is to update the API keys and connections and change the ownership of apps to the person who is taking over.

I hope this helps!

Thank you
