Adding users log

Is it possible to know who added a CAL user and when was added?

Thanks

Hi @JoshD1,

In QlikView Server 12.60 SR1, Named User CAL assignments are logged in the QlikView Server Events log.  As a test, I assigned a Named User CAL to userID "User1".  In the QVS Events log, this action was logged with the below entries:

100    Notice    CAL allocation: Named CAL "USRAL-WMY02\USER1" added - ok.

100    Notice    CAL allocation audit: "USRAL-WMY02\USER1" added by "QTSEL\WMY"

So you can see that userID USER1 was added and added by account QTSEL\WMY

When a Named User CAL is removed in the QMC, it is again logged in the QVS Event logs, with below entries:

100    Notice    CAL allocation: Unused Named CAL "USRAL-WMY02\USER1" deleted - ok.

100    Notice    CAL allocation audit: "USRAL-WMY02\USER1" deleted by "QTSEL\WMY"

So you can see that userID USER1 was deleted and deleted by account QTSEL\WMY

By default, the QVS logs are stored in %ProgramData%\QlikTech\QlikViewServer.  If you have configured the QVS logs to be written to a different location, you can check for the location in QMC > System > Setup > QlikView Servers > QVS@ > Logging tab > Log folder.
