I have a set of datasets from datasources created by me. I update the datasource credential (password based on rotation) by following steps-

New dataset-from existing datas ources- select my created datasource- provide new password- update datasource. Works great!!!

I shared the datasets with another team member who has the similar admin access, however he is not able to update the datasource .(He has to update the datasource password) In his portal, he doesn’t see those datasets in the existing datasets.

We went through the aws cli-

update-data-source --aws-account-id *** --data-source-id *** --name *** --credentials{CredentialPair{Username=““,Password=””}}

This is showing error in syntax.

Could someone please help, how to update the datasource credential by another person with whom I have shared my datasets, since I wont be able to login for few days and someone has to take care of it.

Thank you,
Dibyasha

Hello @dsahu !

Could you try the following:

aws quicksight update-data-source --aws-account-id [YOUR_AWS_ACCOUNT_ID] --data-source-id [YOUR_DATA_SOURCE_ID] --name [YOUR_DATA_SOURCE_NAME] --credentials CredentialPair="{Username='NEW_USERNAME',Password='NEW_PASSWORD'}"

Let me know if this helps!
