Welcome back to our blog series providing an over of Qlik Cloud’s New UI. We have now covered the first three sections of the new UI, Insights, Analytics and Data Integration. Today we will begin our coverage of the final section: Administration. Due to the vast options within this section, it will be divided into two blogs.
The Administration section of the new UI is centered around management of the tenant. In this section you will find many repetitions of previous options, though this time they will be based on the management of that option.
The first option in Administration is ‘Home’. While the other sections also contain a Home option, Administration’s Home provides information about your tenant’s subscription. Here you’ll find how many Analyzer and Professional entitlements are in use in the tenant. You’ll also find the number of deployed models, automations that are being run, and how many reports are being generated. This option also contains information on the capabilities of the tenant.
Under Home, you’ll find ‘Manage Users’. In Manage Users, if your credentials allow, you can manage a user’s roles, see their current roles and entitlement. You can also invite more users to your tenant, create and manage groups and create roles and establish permissions.
The Spaces option provides an overview of the current spaces within the tenant. Here you can see the current spaces, what kind they are and who owns them. Here you can also change the owner of each space, create a new one, or delete it. Additionally, you can assign or unassign users from a space here as well.
In Alerts, users will find all their current alerts for their tenant. This includes both enabled and disabled alerts. In this option, you can also enable or disable an alert, or delete, or reassign ownership of it as well. Information on the alerts can be found here as well, providing the name, owner, last evaluation, last trigger, next evaluation and the date the alert was created.
Moving downward we’ll find Subscriptions. Here you’ll find the various subscriptions within your tenant, even if you are not the owner. A subscription provides the owner with the chart or sheet by email according to a schedule set by the app user. Here you’ll find the name, type, owner, the app the subscription is tied to, when it was last sent, when it’s scheduled again and the current state of the subscription. As with alerts, you can delete, enable or disable subscriptions in this section as well.
In Events, you’ll find a log of the various events that have happened on your tenant. These events can vary vastly, from when an app was opened, to when an alert or subscription was sent, everything that happens in you tenant, it will be logged here along with which user is associated with the event, what kind it was, what the source of it was, and when it happened.
Moving on to the next subsection of Administration, we’ll find Content. Content displays everything on your tenant and information about that content. Here you’ll find information on all the apps uploaded to the tenant, the scripts, data flows, data connections and data files. You can also change the owners of this content, move or delete it. This section is very good for seeing what is on your tenant and what is taking up space.
In Automations, you’ll find the various automations on your tenant. Here you can manage those various automations, create new ones, see the runs of the automations and the connections for the automations as well. Qlik’s automations are so vast that you can do almost anything with them, and this section gives you control over them.
In the AutoML option of Administration, you will find information on the various experiments being run on your tenant. Here you can activate and deactivate your models, view information about the models, see the spaces they were deployed in, and the various jobs and settings for each model.
In Generic Links you will find the links used to make external resources available in the cloud. Here you will find all of those links, what the url, the name, its space, and when it was last updated.
Extensions provide information on the extensions within your tenant. Here you can add or delete extensions and view information on the extensions as well. You’ll find the name of the extension, the author of it, the name of the file for the extension and the version of it as well as the published and uploaded date.
The final option we’ll be covering in this blog post is Themes. Like extensions, themes are uploaded through QEXT files, which can be added or deleted in this option. As with extensions, you’ll find the name of the theme, the name of the file, and the version and the author of the theme as well.
That’s all we have time for in this blog entry but come back next time when we’ll cover the final part of the Administration section, and finally complete our overview of the new Qlik Cloud UI.
