How to change password for QlikSense Repository Database & service account?

Hi all,

We are setting up a new Qlik Sense Production server. As Qlik Sense server admin's we are accountable to change or hand over the password to higher authority.

As part of it we need to pass the Qlik Sense Service account password to higher management. Wanted to understand should we change/pass the Qlik Sense repository database password as well? Also if we need to change the password for the Qlik Sense repository database password what are the steps required?

Thanks in advance....

Best Regards

Amar

Thank you so much Kaushik, may I also know if we need to reset the monitoring apps user id as mentioned in the support link  https://support.qlik.com/articles/000050653

However I noticed that the support document is from Oct 2018 and when checking now the monitoring app are run using the INTERNAL/sa_repository account. Do we need to reset the monitoring apps when changing the service account password. Many Thanks...

Checking to see if I can find someone to have a look at that article and update if necessary.  I would probably follow the Help guidance actually:

Hopefully you may find what you need there in the meantime.
