Access personal metadata and private resources using OAuth M2M

The admin.apps scope has additional permissions granting OAuth tokens with this scope applied non-interactive access to the personal and private resources end users in tenants can create and curate.

This update helps administrators address several management use cases involving resources in personal spaces and unpublished content in Qlik Sense applications.

Situations where this new ability is helpful include:

  • Access orphaned resources and content when users are removed from the tenant.
  • Change ownership from one user’s personal space to another.
  • Programmatically publish content in Qlik Sense applications located in shared or managed spaces.
  • Extract private content from Qlik Sense applications in managed spaces for app lifecycle management, such as promoting content to base-level.
  • Backup and version control resource metadata, such as Qlik Sense applications, automations, data pipeline definitions, and more.
  • Migrating resources and content from client-managed Qlik Sense to Qlik Cloud Analytics, or between Qlik Cloud tenants.

You can use this capability with qlik-cli, qlik-api, or calling tenant REST apis directly. This capability is not available in Qlik Cloud graphical user interfaces.

To learn more about how to configure and use this capability, please see the tutorial on managing personal and private content.
