November 29, 2022: What’s New in Qlik Cloud?

Machine-to-Machine (M2M) enabled OAuth clients

Admins can now embed Qlik Cloud into their web portals and embedded applications using OAuth2 authorization, a web standard for portal integrations. Public clients and single-page application flows can mitigate issues with third-party cookies.

Machine-to-Machine (M2M) enabled OAuth clients are a powerful and secure way to manage and automate operations on a Qlik Cloud tenant. These clients require no user interaction and have a Tenant admin role, which gives administrators complete control over their tenants.

Automatic token refresh for connectors

Some Qlik Cloud connectors now automatically refresh the authentication token before expiring. ​Previously, authentication had to be refreshed manually every 90 days when the token expired. This automatic token refresh capability occurs when these connectors are used at least once every 90 days. Any connections created before November 2022 must be manually refreshed once to trigger the automatic refresh capability. Connections that are not used within 90 days still need to be manually refreshed. The following connectors support automatic token refresh:

Web storage provider connectors:

• Azure Storage

• Office 365 SharePoint

• OneDrive

Data connectors:

• Azure Storage Metadata

• Microsoft Dynamics CRM

• Office 365 SharePoint Metadata

• OneDrive Metadata

• Outlook 365
