Hi @shweta - No, as per my understanding one QuickSight account per AWS account. see the link below.

Can you create two quicksight accounts tied to 1 AWS account?

I have a use case where I want to maintain two different Quicksight accounts that are tied to 1 AWS account. Is that possible to do?

If you have 2 env in one account , you can create 2 folders in QuickSight called Dev and Prod, and restrict access accordingly.

Hope the above details will help you.

You may use folder to separate dashboard. One DEV folder. One PROD folder. You may grant DEV folder access to developer, so that can build and test dashboard in there. Grant PROD folder access to business users only to view dashboard. And grant access for admin to deploy dashboard from DEV to PROD.

There is a blog post talking about folder setup Organize and share your content with folders in Amazon QuickSight | AWS Big Data Blog

It is referring to the access for different departments rather than DEV to PROD. But you may leverage the same concept
