Enabling executive summaries in embedded dashboards

 Applies to: Enterprise Edition 
   Intended audience: Amazon QuickSight developers 

You can enable executive summaries in your embedded dashboards. When enabled, registered users can generate executive summaries that provide a summary of all insights that QuickSight has generated for the dashboard. Executive summaries make it easier for readers to find key insights and information about a dashboard. For more information about how users generate an executive summary of a dashboard, see Generate an executive summary of an Amazon QuickSight dashboard.

Note

Executive summaries are only available in embedded dashboards for registered users, and cannot be enabled in embedded dashboards for anonymous or unregistered users.

To enable executive summaries in embedded dashboards for registered users

  • Follow the steps in Embedding QuickSight dashboards for registered users to embed a dashboard with the following changes:

    1. When generating the URL in Step 2, set Enabled: true in the ExecutiveSummary parameter in the GenerateEmbedUrlForRegisteredUser or GenerateEmbedUrlForRegisteredUserWithIdentity as shown in the following example:

      ExperienceConfiguration: {
        Dashboard: {
            InitialDashboardId: dashboard_id,
            FeatureConfigurations: {
                AmazonQInQuickSight: {
                    ExecutiveSummary: {
                        Enabled: true
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

    2. When embedding the dashboard URL with the QuickSight Embedding SDK in Step 3, set executiveSummary: true in contentOptions, as shown in the following example:

      const contentOptions = {
    toolbarOptions: {
        executiveSummary: true
    }
};
