Ansible Collection for Qlik Cloud

This collection (qlik.cloud) includes Ansible modules and plugins to help automate the management of Qlik Cloud tenants and content.

Requirements

Tested with Ansible Core >= 2.12.0 versions.

This collection depends on the Qlik SDK for Python (qlik-sdk >= 0.14.0). The Qlik SDK requires Python >= 3.8.

Installation

ansible-galaxy collection install qlik.cloud

You can also include it in a requirements.yaml file and install it with ansible-galaxy collection install -r requirements.yaml, using the format:
