AWS – Amazon QuickSight launches scheduling and alerts in embedded dashboards

Amazon QuickSight launches support for threshold alerts and scheduling in embedded dashboards for registered users. Users viewing embedded QuickSight dashboards can now define data thresholds and receive email notifications when their data exceeds them. They can also view and manage alerts at anytime in embedded dashboard. QuickSight admins can customize how the alerts emails notification appear and behave for account users. QuickSight admins can personalize alert email notifications for account users, tailoring their appearance and behavior. They can customize the sender display name, logo, and footer in the email, as well as specify where the dashboard opens when recipients click on it. Additionally, they can replace the custom email address with a user-friendly name, such as “Sales.” Application developers can enable alerts using the GenerateEmbedUrlForRegisteredUser and
GenerateEmbedUrlForRegisteredUserWithIdentity API.

Registered users viewing embedded QuickSight dashboards can now subscribe to schedules for dashboard email reports and pixel-perfect reports. They can also create schedules to deliver pixel-perfect reports via email. Readers can create up to five schedules per dashboard for themselves. This empowers each user to create the view of pixel perfect report that they are interested in and send them as scheduled reports. User can also view previously generated snapshots when viewing embedded QuickSight dashboards. Application developers can enable scheduling using the
GenerateEmbedUrlForRegisteredUser and GenerateEmbedUrlForRegisteredUserWithIdentity API. .

Scheduling and Alerts in Embedded Dashboards are now available in all supported Amazon QuickSight regions – see here for QuickSight regional endpoints.
