We are currently working with Qlik Sense Nov 2019 Release and we have use like below:
1)We are using Attrib table coming from Oracle to Allocate the licenses.
2)When user logs on the URL if user exists in the Attrib table he is allocated a license
3) tomorrow if the user leaves or no longer needs a license he is removed from the Atrrib table so on the next reload He is not coming in as a User
4) Even though he does not exist in the Attrib table . The license is still Allocated to him cuz Qlik cant Deallocate the license automatically.
How I can write a powershell script t o Deallocate his license.
Is that attribute present in Qlik Sense? Are you synchronizing to Oracle as a UDC? If so, what is the format? group = foo? Something else?
Yes we have a attribute called 'Licensetype" with a value of "professional" . I was able to find your script in one o fthe blogs . Please see attached script. How can I use it. Can you please provide the QLik CLI steps to consume the script. We have a subscription model
