Tenant Admin role is required to grant the Manage API Keys permission.

​
Generate an API key

An API key authenticates requests to Qlik Cloud with the same permissions as the user who created it.

1

Grant the Manage API Keys permission

Sign in to Qlik Cloud with a Tenant Admin account.

  • In the Administration activity center, click Manage users in the left sidebar.
  • Select the Permissions tab at the top.
  • Click the User Default button in the top right corner.
  • In the User Default dialog, expand Features and actions.
  • Expand the Developer section.
  • Set Manage API keys to Allowed.
  • Click Confirm to save the changes.
2

Generate a new API key

In the Administration activity center, click API keys in the left sidebar.

  • Click Generate new > Generate new key.
  • In the API key description field, enter a name (e.g., StackOne Integration).
  • For Expires in, select 1 day (recommended for longer-running integrations; the other option is 6 hours).
  • Click Generate.
3

Copy API key

A popup will be displayed with the generated API key. Copy the API key and store it securely — it is only displayed once and cannot be retrieved again.

​
Find your Tenant Name and Region

When connecting in StackOne, you will need your Tenant Name and Region.

1

Locate from your browser URL

After logging in to Qlik Cloud, look at the URL in your browser address bar. It follows this format:
https://<tenant-name>.<region>.qlikcloud.com
For example, if your URL is https://my-company.us.qlikcloud.com/hub:

  • Tenant Name is my-company.
  • Region is us (the part between the tenant name and qlikcloud.com).

​
Linking the Account from the Hub

1

Navigate to the Hub

Use one of the three Linking Account Methods to access the Hub.
2

Fill out the fields

Fill out the following fields using details from your provider:
  • Tenant Name
  • Region
  • API Key
3

Connect

  • Click Connect
  • If applicable, the provider will redirect you to a sign-in or authorization page. Complete the provider’s authorization flow.
  • Once authorization is successful, you will see a confirmation popup

If the account linking is successful, you will see the newly linked account in your Accounts page.
