Amazon QuickSight

{'UserArn': 'string'}

Generates a server-side embeddable URL and authorization code. Before this can work properly, first you need to configure the dashboards and user permissions. For more information, see Embedding Amazon QuickSight Dashboards.

Currently, you can use GetDashboardEmbedURL only from the server, not from the user’s browser.

CLI Sample:

Assume the role with permissions enabled for actions: quickSight:RegisterUser and quicksight:GetDashboardEmbedURL . You can use assume-role, assume-role-with-web-identity, or assume-role-with-saml.

aws sts assume-role --role-arn "arn:aws:iam::111122223333:role/embedding_quicksight_dashboard_role" --role-session-name embeddingsession

If the user does not exist in QuickSight, register the user:

aws quicksight register-user --aws-account-id 111122223333 --namespace default --identity-type IAM --iam-arn "arn:aws:iam::111122223333:role/embedding_quicksight_dashboard_role" --user-role READER --session-name "embeddingsession" --email user123@example.com --region us-east-1

Get the URL for the embedded dashboard

aws quicksight get-dashboard-embed-url --aws-account-id 111122223333 --dashboard-id 1a1ac2b2-3fc3-4b44-5e5d-c6db6778df89 --identity-type IAM
