Error while save analysis as

Q&A

I have an analysis in Quicksight, and I want to do Save as Analysis but it shows me the following message>
Read permission needed

Before you can create a new analysis, you need read-only access to the following datasets:
mydataset_name

I am the owner of this dataset. What’s wrong with this dataset?

Hi @Noorali , it does not look like expected behavior but I would start with something like this:

  • put the analysis and the dataset to a shard folder owned by you and try Save As
  • create a copy of the dataset (even one with zero rows will work), replace old one in he analysis with the new one, try Save As
  • create a new analysis and try to import into it all visuals from the old one instead of Save As (but it’s not a good option for complex analyses)
  • and the best option (if you have proper permissions) is using CLI or API to describe the dataset, the analysis, their permissions and analyse them

Even if it don’t help you probably will be able find out something new about the root cause of the issue.
