Can we create alerts using Quicksight API's?

Question & Answer

Hi All,

I wanted to know if there is a way to set threshold and create alerts using quicksight API’s? We will be using Quicksight dashboard URL to redirect the user to quicksight UI on the application. But we need to set threshold values and create alerts beforehand, is that doable?

Thanks

Hi @riya-fale and welcome to the QuickSight community!

There are threshold alert options within QuickSight depending on what you are looking to achieve, here are a couple articles for you to explore:

Let me know if you have any additional questions!

Hi Brett

Thanks for responding and sharing the resources.
However, I couldn’t find anything that would help me to create alerts using quicksight API’s. I want to make an API call through my code for the respective dashboard and create an alert. Are there any resources that could help me to do. If there are it would be very helpful if you could share some.

Thanks and Regards,
Riya

Hi @riya-fale,
This is currently not available. The alert functions are still somewhat limited, as they still cannot be created for visuals in an embedded dashboard or from the QuickSight mobile app.

Here’s a breakdown of available API calls for QuickSight that are currently available for your additional review.

I’ll go ahead and mark this as a feature request as well though!
