Access document Authorization through QMS API

apurvkolte — Mon, 26 Jan 2026 16:26:21 GMT

I am trying to read the document authorization set in QMC, we currently have set the document authorization set to User Type => All Authenticated Users. From QMS API, I get the DocumentMetaData but the Authorization or Authorization.Access doesn't has this information. How to read and update this setting from QMS API. Below is some code snippet that I use.

ServiceInfo[] MyQVS = Client.GetServices(ServiceTypes.QlikViewServer); DocumentNode[] allDocs = Client.GetUserDocuments(MyQVS[0].ID); .. DocumentMetaData Meta = Client.GetDocumentMetaData(doc, DocumentMetaDataScope.All); DocumentAccessEntry[] accessList = Meta.Authorization.Access;

Since this question is about APIs I will move it to the integration board

Hi @apurvkolte

The information should be in the distribution task, this example shows the configuration for a Manual Distribution:

Hope it helps!
