At

If we want to test user access in a space or in a tenant what option can we perform.

In the video one of the expert mention API and use the ID from a user in qmc.

Can someone enlight me and describe me the step to do it.

I think it could help lots of people as well.

Thank you for your help and the support

Hi @random_user_3869 

By quering https://TENANT.REGION.qlikcloud.com/api/v1/spaces/SPACEID/assignments

you will get the list of users that have access to the space, and their role.

For instance:

{
"data": [
{
"id": "userid1",
"type": "user",
"assigneeId": "...",
"roles": [
"codeveloper"
],

...

{
"id": "userid2",
"type": "user",
"assigneeId": "...",
"roles": [
"consumer"
],

There is no "testing", like emulating a user access.

If you want a simplified graphical interface, you can install the Access Evaluator monitoring app:
