Previewing tables in a dataset

You can preview each individual data table within a dataset. When you choose a data table to preview, a read-only preview of the table appears in a new tab in the data preview section. You can have multiple table preview tabs open at once.

You can only preview tables that you have access to in a dataset. If a table doesn't appear in the top half of the data preparation space, you can't preview the table.

The Dataset tab contains all transformations, like new columns or filters. Table preview tabs don't show any of your transforms.

To preview a data table

  1. On the Amazon QuickSight start page, choose Datasets.

  2. Choose the dataset that you want, and choose Edit dataset.

  3. Choose the data table that you want to preview, choose the down arrow to open the menu, and choose Show table preview.
