Hello @Bhargavi

Welcome to the community! Thanks for your question!

To assign Reader permissions to an IAM user in Amazon QuickSight so that they can view published dashboards, follow these steps:

In the QuickSight console, navigate to the Manage QuickSight section by clicking on your profile name at the top right and selecting Manage QuickSight. QuickSight Admins have the authority to invite IAM users to QuickSight

Invite the IAM User:

  • In the “Manage Users” section, click on “Invite users.”
  • Enter the email address associated with the IAM user.
  • Assign the role “Reader.”
  • Click “Send invitations.”

You can refer Using Amazon QuickSight with IAM - Amazon QuickSight for better understanding from QuickSight.

Just in case… remember that you need to share the dashboards with this new user. You can share it in the dashboard menu options or by using shared folders.
