Security: user can always dublicate sheet (user should have read only)

Tue, 03 Jan 2017 06:28:24 GMT

Hi,

Today we have been puzzling on limiting the access rights to an app.

We have create a stream 'Example_Stream' and a corresponding read-only access rule for user 'Example_user' to allow it to see apps in the stream. The stream has one app ('Example_App').

Example_User should only be able to look into the Example_App, browse through the sheets etc., but not duplicate sheets and/or edit own sheets.

We have followed the security rule example on the Qlik Help:

https://help.qlik.com/en-US/sense/1.1/Subsystems/ManagementConsole/Content/ServerUserGuide/SUG_ConfiguringSecurity_Envir…

However the user Example_User is still able to copy sheets and/or edit the duplicated sheet under 'my sheets'.

Does anyone know what is going wrong?

Regards,

Koen

Can you provide the rule details that you changed?

Hi,

We disabled, according to the help note I am referring to, the 'standard rules', and created costum ones:

We alterted the data connection role in a simular pattern.

This is how the two new rules look like:
