Qlik Admin can see QVW on Access Point even not granted access?

[#1]

Hi,

My account is in the local admin group and Qlik admin group of QlikView Server. While I was doing a test and didn't not grant myself access to a specific application, I could still see this application on Access Point. Is it because I am the "Admin" or  "Qlik Admin"? Is there any document explaining this? Thanks!

If the user has file permissions but no CAL, they will see the thumbnail, then on clicking the thumbnail will either see a message that they have no CAL to access the document, or if automatic CAL allocation is enabled, and there are document or named CALs available, a call is allocated automatically.

Automatic allocation will allocate full CALs first, then if no full CALs are available, a named CAL will be allocated if there is an available pool for that app.

‌Does this only happen with NTFS? I had experience with DMS and don't recall that thumbnails showing up because of file permissions. Would this happen with Configurable ODBC? Thanks!
