1. Login to Qlik and navigate to Settings> API Keys and enable API keys
Developer privileges must be given to users to use API keys:
1. Navigate to the Management Console > Users > Edit Roles
2. Check the box next to ‘Developer’ and save.
Generate API Keys:
1. Navigate to Management Console > API Keys and select ‘Generate new key’
2. provide a description and expiration and Save.
