I would like to embed a visual into our app/website, but only show data filtered by a certain dimension.

For example, let’s say I want to embed a dashboard onto a customer’s page (customer #1234), and the URL for their page is “{my company’s URL}/customer/1234.” On the dashboard, I only want to show data for customer #1234, NOT all our data. How can I embed one of our QuickSight dashboards that only shows customer #1234’s data on customer #1234’s page?

Hi @michaelkhosrofian,
I believe the easiest way to achieve this would be by creating a parameter for Customer/Customer ID. You can then include your parameter in the URL (included an article below that explores this a bit more).

Let me know if you have any additional questions or if this helps for your case!

Hi @michaelkhosrofian,
It’s been awhile since we last heard from you so following up to see if you had any additional questions regarding your topic?

If we do not hear back within the next 3 business days, I’ll go ahead and close out this topic.

Thank you!

@Brett Is it a secure way of doing it?
Because then users could play by changing the customer_id if it’s numeric

We are using RLS to filter data based on clients
