Cannot add another dataset to my analysis (no entry sign on the Add button)

Q&A

I’ve built an analysis with 60+ datasets (all are SPICE) and had no issue before. I’m trying to add a new dataset to my analysis, and the Add button is grayed out (tooltip showing no-entry sign ).
What I’ve tried so far and didn’t work:

  1. Removing multiple datasets from my analysis in case there is some quota
  2. Trying to add a different dataset (smaller one) than the one I intended to add

Appreciate any help here!

Hello @GZ999, welcome to the QuickSight community!

I am actually not sure how you were able to add more than 50 datasets since 50 is the maximum number allowed. I would recommend bringing that number down to at least 50, otherwise you may not be able to publish it as a dashboard.

Once you reduce the number, you can add the dataset you want. If you are wanting to replace a dataset you added with another one, you can utilize the replace feature. As long as you can map fields between the 2 datasets, you should be able to replace them on the analysis. I’ll link some documentation below that explains the process. Let me know if this helps!
