Governed Data Connection Management (New Security Scope)

Share this message

One of the most requested governance features has arrived! Qlik Cloud now gives administrators full control over who can create, manage, or only read data connections. This new security scope delivers enterprise-grade governance that goes beyond spaces, ensuring consistent enforcement across your entire tenant.

Highlights include:

  • Global Control – Define who can create or read data connections across the tenant.

  • Governance Beyond Spaces – Add global enforcement on top of space-level permissions.

  • Stronger Restrictions – Even space editors and PACC users need explicit assignment to create connections.

This long-awaited enhancement strengthens data governance, security, privacy, and compliance while giving organizations the precision they’ve been asking for.
