Exporting Users Admin Roles

I can see a list of all our users along with their Admin Role, but I have no way of exporting it into an excel spreadsheet for analysis. I did find the link, but after 4 years I'm hopeful this functionality would be more embedded for security auditing purposes. Our company needs to create new roles and assign them to the appropriate people while revoking the old (implementing a new standard).

Hi,

My recommendation will be you create a connection to Postgres database (That Qlik uses for storing the configuration) as a data source and pull the data from that using below query.

SELECT "ID",
"UserId",
"UserDirectory",
"Name",
"RolesString",
"Inactive",
"CreatedDate",
"ModifiedDate",
"ModifiedByUserName",
"RemovedExternally",
"Blacklisted",
"DeleteProhibited"
FROM "public"."Users"
where "RolesString" = 'RootAdmin';

Hi @bmartin_hm 

I know this is an old thread, but I can highly recommend Export Qlik Sense QMC Tab, which is a Chrome extension:

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/export-qlik-sense-qmc-tab/dbnjjihpapafmihpnionckfipbmalhko

It is a simple plugin that allows you to save tables from QMC to a file or copy onto your clipboard.

Forgive me for the dumb questions. I've been supporting other applications for our company and Qlik Sense is one that was recently added.

I'm not finding the name of that database. Is there a place I can look to get that info or do you know the default database name? Also, for credentials to query the data. Is Root Admin good enough or does it need to be an 'sa' account (if so, what is the default password for an sa account)?

Hi The database name is QRS.

But if you want to query you should connect using the same user which was used while installing Qlik Sense Repository.

Check with your installation team about user credentials.
