The Qlik Sense Management Console does not allow access to configuration options. All options are greyed out.
When providing access to the QMC, a common pitfall is that only the Content Administrator or Deployment Administrator Rule is being edited.
See below:
The Qlik Sense Management Console may then not allow any access to its configuration settings and have them greyed out.

Resolution:
There are 3 rules that need to be edited, not only one.
- ContentAdmin is the general rule which allows changes to be made.
- ContentAdminQmcSections allows us to SEE the section in the QMC that we should be able to.
- ContentAdminRulesAccess allows us to edit specific rules attached to streams, data connections, content libraries and extensions (not ALL!)
The last rule needs to be edited to start like this..
user.roles = "ContentAdmin" or user.group="content" (where "content" is the name of my group)
As with the editing of any default Rules we advise caution when performing changes!
