Publishing apps

If you publish an app in Qlik Cloud/SaaS, can non-licensed users interact with the app if it has been shared with them?

If not, are there any ways for a non-licensed user to see the app such as embedding?

Hi Pruitt_s_a,

At this moment, Qlik SaaS doesn't support Anonymous access. The user must be authenticated and have a valid license allocation to work with apps.

Please refer: https://community.qlik.com/t5/Knowledge/Does-Qlik-Sense-Business-and-Qlik-Sense-Enterprise-SaaS-allow/ta-p/1712585

To embed sheets in iFrame please refer these:

I hope this clarifies. Let me know!

In Qlik Cloud/SaaS, non-licensed users cannot interact with published apps, even if shared—they need at least a “Professional” or “Analyzer” license. For viewing without a license options are limited to static exports (PDF, images) or embedding via Qlik’s Capability/API for public access which must be configured carefully for data security.

In application development CONTUS Tech advises designing embedded dashboards with anonymous access through governed APIs to balance accessibility and compliance requirements.
