Data space roles and permissions

When you add members to a data space, you can assign them roles inside the space. Space roles are defined by a set of permissions on the data space, and the resources inside the space.

For more information about data spaces, see Working in spaces in Qlik Talend Data Integration.

When you create a data space, you become the owner of the data space and all resources inside of that space. Space owners, tenant admins, and data admins can add members to the data space. Also, data space members who are granted the Can manage role can add other members to the space.

As data tasks operate in the context of the owner of the project they belong to, the following roles are required:

• The owner of a project must have the Can edit role in the space where the project resides. This allows the catalog to be updated with table metadata and ensures that storage (QVD) tasks in the project can create data files in the space.

• The owner of a project must have the Can consume data, Can edit, or Can manage role in the spaces that contain:

  • Target connections that are used in the project.

  • Source connections used in data tasks in the project.

• For any data task that uses connections through Data Movement gateway, the owner of the project must have the Can consume data, Can edit, or Can manage role in the space where the data gateway resides.

To create connections to access data through Data Movement gateway, the following roles are required for the user who creates the connection:

• Can manage on the space where you create the connection.

• Can consume data, Can edit, or Can manage on the space where the data gateway resides.
