How to use Custom Visual Content display content in private S3 bucket without using a world-readable URL

Question & Answer
1

I would like to display private content in private S3 bucket. Currently the Custom Visual Content seems to only support public URL. However, for security reasons, some contents are private. Is there a way to display content in private S3 bucket without using world-readable URL?

Hi @wjdong!
You can use a CloudFront distribution to serve content out of a private S3 bucket. Please see this documentation link.

Hello @Kellie_Burton,
Thanks a lot for your answer. I’ll try this method. In addition, it would be great if Quicksight could support direct and secured access to private S3 bucket in Custom Visual in a future version. :grinning:
