Specific bookmark for each users

Hi there,

I have a question about whether it’s possible to assign one bookmark to a specific user.

The idea is that I have one page containing data from all branches. What I want to do is create a bookmark for each branch and assign each bookmark to the corresponding branch manager.

If this isn’t possible, is there another way to achieve this without duplicating the streams for each branch?

Thanks

Hi

If our business requirement is:
"Each Branch Manager should only access his/her own branch."
Use:
Section Access + USERID → BRANCH
If the requirement is:
"Managers can access everything, but I want the app to open with their branch selected."
Use:
USERID → BRANCH mapping + default selection logic
This allows you to keep one Qlik Sense application and one stream, rather than creating separate apps/streams for every branch.

One important point: don't rely on bookmarks for security. A bookmark is just a selection state; Section Access is the appropriate security mechanism.
