How to restrict the data export in Qlik Cloud Analytics

[Nobuaki_T]

The existing 'has restricted view' space role can export data to Excel. If you do not wish for users with the 'has restricted view' space role to be able to export data, you will need to edit the User Default role to deny download for all users, and then create a custom role that allows it for specific users and groups.

Steps

1. Go to the Administration activity center
2. Go to Manage users
3. Go to Permissions 
4. Click User Default 
   
   
   
   
5. Expand Content Types
6. Expand Applications
7. Set In-app content download to Not Allowed 
8. Click Confirm 
   
   

   This has now changed the default user behavior across the tenant. Users will no longer be able to download in-app content.

9. Back in the Permissions view, click Create New
   
   
   
   

   This creates a new role that you will need to assign to any users who should have the permission to download in-app content.

10. Name your New Role, then expand Content Types
11. Expand Applications
12. Set In-app content download to Not Allowed 
13. Click Confirm
    
    
    
    
14. Assign users or groups to the new custom role 
    
    See Assigning security roles and custom roles to users for details.

There is no function to restrict downloading by apps or spaces.
