Field usage in analysis of datasets

Hi,
according to this thread How to quickly find Fields in use, there is a way to see the usage of fields in the console. Could you please provide a visual guide to find this feature? Because I cannot find it in my UI.

Best,
I

Hi @i_ka

Welcome to the QuickSight community!

QuickSight currently does not provide a built-in feature to visualize field usage within datasets, analyses, or dashboards.

To identify which fields are in use, you can manually inspect each analysis and dashboard. Alternatively, you can utilize the Boto3 API to programmatically retrieve this information. For example, the describe_analysis_definition API can be used to scan for column names used in an analysis.

Thank you for bringing this option to attention. At AWS, our roadmap is primarily driven by our customers. Your feedback helps us build a better service. I have tagged this as a feature request to promote visibility to the support team!

Hi, that’s what I thought, but the mentioned thread is very misleading and should not be marked as solution. Thank you. Best, Iris
