Edited July 7th: Clarified that the change will begin rollout on July 28, 2026.
Qlik is introducing a change in which automation permissions are included in the Tenant Admin Automations scope.
When is the change being introduced?
The change is being rolled out beginning July 28, 2026.
What does that mean for me?
Anyone assigned the Tenant Admin Automations scope in a custom role will be able to claim ownership of another user's automation. After claiming ownership, they can make necessary changes to it and enable the automation. However, they can no longer transfer ownership to another user.
The default Tenant Admin role will not be impacted. Tenant admins can still transfer ownership to any user with the appropriate access rights in the tenant.
How do I claim ownership of an automation?
As a User assigned a custom role with the Tenant Admin Automations scope, you can claim ownership of an automation by following these steps:
- Navigate to the Automations section in the Administration Console
- Locate the automation you want to claim ownership of, and click the Actions menu (...)
- Choose Claim ownership
This behavior change only applies to the Tenant Admin Automations scope when it is added to a custom role. Tenant admins can still transfer ownership to any user with the appropriate access rights in the tenant.
