Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

Customizing report and alert emails

   Intended audience: System administrators and Amazon QuickSight administrators 

In Amazon QuickSight, you can customize how dashboard report emails and alert emails appear and behave for account users. You can customize the following components of emails:

  • The sender email address, including configuring a user-friendly name in place of the email address. For example: Sales, or Metrics emails.

  • The logo in the email.

  • The footer in the email.

  • Where the dashboard opens when recipients choose it from the email.

To edit the custom email template, you must have the appropriate IAM permissions to create and update account customizations. If you plan to use a custom email address to send emails from, such as a company email address, you must have permissions to obtain Amazon SES identity attributes. For more information about the required permissions, and to see an example IAM policy, see IAM identity-based policies for Amazon QuickSight: customizing email report templates.

Important

All customizations apply only to the Amazon Web Services Region and account that's selected in the QuickSight console.

Use the following topics to edit the custom email template.
