CreateNamespace

(Enterprise edition only) Creates a new namespace for you to use with Amazon Quick Sight.

A namespace allows you to isolate the Quick Sight users and groups that are registered for that namespace. Users that access the namespace can share assets only with other users or groups in the same namespace. They can't see users and groups in other namespaces. You can create a namespace after your Amazon account is subscribed to Quick Sight. The namespace must be unique within the Amazon account. By default, there is a limit of 100 namespaces per Amazon account. To increase your limit, create a ticket with Amazon Web Services Support.
