π€ Who can do this? You will probably need your Amazon QuickSight administrator to run these commands β you may not have access yourself.
Atlan currently only supports IAM user authentication for Amazon QuickSight.
Create IAM policy
To create an IAM policy with the necessary permissions, follow the steps in the AWS Identity and Access Management User Guide.
Create the policy using the following JSON:
{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [{
"Effect": "Allow",
"Action": [
"quicksight:ListAnalyses",
"quicksight:ListDataSets",
"quicksight:ListDashboards",
"quicksight:ListFolders",
"quicksight:ListDataSources",
"quicksight:DescribeAnalysis",
"quicksight:DescribeDashboard",
"quicksight:DescribeDataSet",
"quicksight:DescribeFolder",
"quicksight:ListFolderMembers"
],
"Resource": [
"arn:aws:quicksight:<region>:<account_id>:*"
]
}]
}
- Replace
<region>
with the AWS region of your Amazon QuickSight instance. - Replace
<account_id>
with your AWS account ID.
Configure user-based authentication
Using the IAM policy created above, configure user-based authentication.
To configure user-based authentication:
- Create an AWS IAM user by following the steps in the AWS Identity and Access Management User Guide.
- On the Set permissions page, attach the policy created in the previous step to this user.
- Once the user is created, view or download the user's access key ID and secret access key.
π¨ Careful! This will be your only opportunity to view or download the access keys. You will not have access to them again after leaving the user creation screen.
