First Time Set-up Troubleshooting

Hello! I downloaded the standalone application and went through the set-up. However, with every prompt I try. I get no responses. I’ve tried restarting and re-granting perms but nothing seems to be working. The app is totally non-responsive. Any ideas?

Hi @milljosi,

Welcome to the community!

I have a couple of quick things to check:

  1. Sign-in. Go to Settings → Capabilities → Connections → Authentication and confirm you’re fully signed in. If auth isn’t completed, the app can’t reach the AI models.

  2. Full restart. Quit the app completely and relaunch.

A few clarifying questions that would help:

  • Are you using the Amazon Quick desktop app, or are you referring to something within QuickSight itself?

  • What OS are you on (Mac/Windows)?

  • Do you see any loading indicator when you send a prompt, or does absolutely nothing happen?

  • Is there an error message anywhere, or just silence?

Hope this helps!

I fixed it! I had to go to the ‘Danger Zone’. After clearing all data and trying again it worked.

Well…nevermind it happened again. When I go to Connections it shows…nothing. When I go to explore options I have tons that I’m connected with. What’s going on?

Hi @milljosi,

That is definitely some interesting behavior, especially since it shows your connections within Options. Without revealing any sensitive data, could you please specify or send a screenshot of any errors or behavior you are encountering (as that could help us better figure out why this is occurring for you)?

In the meantime, I would also definitely recommend creating a support ticket with AWS Support, as they will be able to better assist if this is indeed an account-related issue or something similar.

Thank you!
