How to Assign Admin Role to AD Group in Qlik Sense?

Hi,

We have AD groups setup and I need to setup a Content Admin Role to one AD Group in Qlik Sense instead of individual users..

Is this possible in Qlik Sense?

Can we get AD groups into the Qlik Sense Users list so that we can assign a Admin role to the AD group?

I am able to allocate License to the group using Login Access security rule and also able to assign Stream to the AD Group. But could not find a way to assign Admin role to AD group.

I would Appreciate your help.

Hey Ram,

You cannot assign a role based on group membership since assignment of a role requires explicit QRS API calls (either programmatically or through the QMC). But you can provide effective Admin access based on groups. I covered that scenario on this video: STT - Extending the Power of Qlik Sense with Rules - YouTube with the rule being Q-QMC-Administrators on https://github.com/levi-turner/Qonnections2018-Rules#backend-rules


Hope that helps.
