Amazon QuickSight

2021/07/27 - Amazon QuickSight - 2 new 4 updated api methods

Changes  Add support to use row-level security with tags when embedding dashboards for users not provisioned in QuickSight

GenerateEmbedUrlForRegisteredUser (new) Link ¶

Generates an embed URL that you can use to embed an Amazon QuickSight experience in your website. This action can be used for any type of user registered in an Amazon QuickSight account. Before you use this action, make sure that you have configured the relevant Amazon QuickSight resource and permissions.

The following rules apply to the generated URL:

  • It contains a temporary bearer token. It is valid for 5 minutes after it is generated. Once redeemed within this period, it cannot be re-used again.

  • The URL validity period should not be confused with the actual session lifetime that can be customized using the SessionLifetimeInMinutes parameter. The resulting user session is valid for 15 minutes (default) to 10 hours (maximum).

  • You are charged only when the URL is used or there is interaction with Amazon QuickSight.

For more information, see Embedded Analytics in the Amazon QuickSight User Guide .

type AwsAccountId

string

param AwsAccountId

[REQUIRED]

The ID for the Amazon Web Services account that contains the dashboard that you're embedding.

type SessionLifetimeInMinutes

integer

param SessionLifetimeInMinutes

How many minutes the session is valid. The session lifetime must be in [15-600] minutes range.

type UserArn

string

param UserArn

[REQUIRED]

The Amazon Resource Name for the registered user.

type ExperienceConfiguration

dict

param ExperienceConfiguration

[REQUIRED]

The experience you are embedding. For registered users, you can embed Amazon QuickSight dashboards or the entire Amazon QuickSight console.

  • Dashboard (dict) --

    The configuration details for providing a dashboard embedding experience.

    • InitialDashboardId (string) -- [REQUIRED]

      The dashboard ID for the dashboard that you want the user to see first. This ID is included in the output URL. When the URL in response is accessed, Amazon QuickSight renders this dashboard if the user has permissions to view it.

      If the user does not have permission to view this dashboard, they see a permissions error message.

  • QuickSightConsole (dict) --

    The configuration details for providing an Amazon QuickSight console embedding experience. This can be used along with custom permissions to restrict access to certain features. For more information, see Customizing Access to the Amazon QuickSight Console in the Amazon QuickSight User Guide .

    Use GenerateEmbedUrlForRegisteredUser where you want to provide an authoring portal that allows users to create data sources, datasets, analyses, and dashboards. The users who accesses an embedded Amazon QuickSight console needs to belong to the author or admin security cohort. If you want to restrict permissions to some of these features, add a custom permissions profile to the user with the UpdateUser API operation. Use RegisterUser API operation to add a new user with a custom permission profile attached. For more information, see the following sections in the Amazon QuickSight User Guide :

    • InitialPath (string) --

      The initial URL path for the Amazon QuickSight console. InitialPath is required.

      The entry point URL is constrained to the following paths:

      • /start

      • /start/analyses

      • /start/dashboards

      • /start/favorites

      • /dashboards/DashboardId . DashboardId is the actual ID key from the Amazon QuickSight console URL of the dashboard.

      • /analyses/AnalysisId . AnalysisId is the actual ID key from the Amazon QuickSight console URL of the analysis.

rtype

GenerateEmbedUrlForAnonymousUser (new) Link ¶

Generates an embed URL that you can use to embed an Amazon QuickSight dashboard in your website, without having to register any reader users. Before you use this action, make sure that you have configured the dashboards and permissions.

The following rules apply to the generated URL:

  • It contains a temporary bearer token. It is valid for 5 minutes after it is generated. Once redeemed within this period, it cannot be re-used again.

  • The URL validity period should not be confused with the actual session lifetime that can be customized using the SessionLifetimeInMinutes parameter. The resulting user session is valid for 15 minutes (default) to 10 hours (maximum).

  • You are charged only when the URL is used or there is interaction with Amazon QuickSight.
