Access Intelligence

The Access Intelligence Center allows you to discover key insights into your identity and administration program. You can view and create dashboards to customize the data you view.

  • The Access Intelligence Center dashboard is an identity program overview focusing on identity relationships. Data displayed in the Access Intelligence Center includes showing identities, requests, and certifications.

  • The AIC Audit dashboard focuses on more tangible audit events, such as access requests, certifications, lifecycle state, addition and removal of entitlements, and creation or deletion of accounts. It contains data from the last 3 months or 5 million events.

With Reader permissions, users can view public sheets and further filter the data. With Authoring permissions, users can view public sheets, create public or private sheets, and bookmark certain filters for future use.

Sheets

Use sheets to display customized visualizations to analyze and explore your data. You can view any public sheets and filter the data within the sheet to get more information. With Author permissions, you can create public or private sheets.

Sheets are comprised of visualizations, including charts, extensions, or other objects that display your data in a meaningful way. Visualizations use measures and dimensions to group and calculate the data. These are the visual representations of your data in a sheet. Refer to Qlik documentation for more information on using visualizations. Customers hosted in Canada refer to Qlik Sense documentation.
