Hello,
I am a new user of QuickSight. I have deployed some dashboards (CUQOS, KPI, etc.), but I need to display additional data that is not available in the dataset created while deploying the dashboards. Could you please tell me how I can do that?
Hello @Ahmed1,
Welcome to the QuickSight community, it is great having you here!
To add data to an existing Dashboard, you just need to add new datasets to the analysis.
Hope this helps!
Hello @andres007 ,
Thank you for your response,
In fact, I am currently collecting data from multiple management accounts through a collector account (using the default CUDOS Dashboard). I need to collect additional data (reso
urce informations) from all accounts (both management and their children). Could you please advise me on the best solution to do this? Do I need to modify something in the CloudFormation or make any other adjustments to collect more data? Thank you in advance!
Indeed, you will need to change the ingestion process to add the new data. There is no easy way to explain / do this in this forum since it will take reengineering of the whole process. And not something I have done before and I was not able to find any documentation on how to do this.
If you have an internal team in AWS assigned to your account I will recomend contacting them directly or filing a case with AWS Support where we can dive into the details so that we can help you further. Here are the steps to open a support case. If your company has someone who manages your AWS account, you might not have direct access to AWS Support and will need to raise an internal ticket to your IT team or whomever manages your AWS account. They should be able to open an AWS Support case on your behalf.
Hope this helps!
Hello @andres007 ,
Thank you for your support. I would like to simplify my request to clarify my needs.
From a collector account, I extract EC2 details from all management accounts (which collect data from their member accounts), including EC2 ID, size, and region. Some of these details are already included in the dataset I use (the dataset that was included in the dashboard I deployed from the Cloud Intelligence Dashboards Framework).
I would like to know if I can add additional details that are not included in the mentioned dataset. If so, how can I do that?
Thank you in advance!
No problem, always happy to help.
Maybe you can try creating a new dataset with your new extracted data, join it to the existing CUDOS dataset and use the resulting dataset for your new visualizations.
Hope this helps!
