Authorise objects for admin users

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 18:19:17 GMT

In Qlikview i have several objects that only admin users may see. At the layout tab (of an object) you have a conditional function. But what do i need to type there to authorise only Admin users?

p.s.: in section access i have the roles admin and user.

Hi Chiel,

I'm sharing script:

SECTION Access;

LOAD * Inline

[UserID, Password

u1,1

u2,2

admin,admin];

SECTION Application;

Data:

LOAD * Inline

[Region, Sales

A,10

B,20

C,15

D,30];

Previledges:

LOAD * Inline

[UserID, ViewObject

u1,CH01

u2,CH02

admin,CH01

admin,CH02];

Here CH01 & CH02 are my two objects , similarly you can define at your end.

Thanks,

If you want to do it using Layout tab, conditional option then you can try the following in Conditional box:

=GetFieldSelections([Your Field name]) = 'ADMIN'

Hello,

In condition write QVUSER()='ADMIN'

ADMIN should be in caps only
