Question & Answer

Hello QuickSight Community,

My name is Emmanuel Katto. I am currently working on a project in Amazon QuickSight and I’m looking to implement row-level security to ensure that users can only see data that is relevant to them based on their roles.

Could anyone provide guidance or best practices on how to set up row-level security effectively in QuickSight? Specifically, I want to know:

  1. What are the most efficient ways to prepare my data for row-level security?
  2. How should I structure user roles in QuickSight to align with row-level security requirements?
  3. What steps should I take to test and validate that row-level security is functioning as expected?
  4. Are there any common pitfalls or challenges that I should be aware of when implementing this feature?

Thank you in advance for your help!

I appreciate any insights or resources you can share.

Best,
Emmanuel Katto
