Password protecting viewing script section in Qlik Sense?

t-gilchrist — Mon, 05 Nov 2018 13:01:31 GMT

Hello All,

I have a fairly straight forward question I wasn't able to find specifically for Qlik sense.

I am wanting to password protect a section in my data load editor or possibly the entire data load section. Basically I am wanting to prevent anyone from modifying the script in the future.

I found a few posts that pertained to Qlikview about declaring the script as a "hidden script" but I was unable to find it in Sense.

to the best of my knowledge this capability isn't currently available in Qlik sense

some type of workaround

is to create the data model in one app , this app will remain in my work area

and the published app will do a binary load from the first app , so no script in the published app .

another approach is to have your whole script on a script file , that you can save in a folder only specific users have access to.

and your script in the app will only have one line to include the script file

Thank you for the reply

I will try to implement one of your suggested workarounds
