Is it possible to render HTML content in a visual?
Suppose I have a very simple dataset with 1 column and 1 row:

html_content
html_described_below

<!doctype html>
	 <html lang="en">
	 <head>
	     <meta charset="UTF-8">
	     <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
	     <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="ie=edge">
	     <title>Basic Chart</title>
	</head>
	<body>
		<ul>
			<li>Item 1<li/>
			<li>Item 2</li>
		</ul>
	</body>
	</html>

What can be done for this to be displayed as:

  • Item 1
  • Item 2

Is it possible using the table visual?
Or the only option would be to host that and have an url that actually renders the web page?

Also, for example: If I have a text with /n would it create a new line if I display this text in a table?

Currently this is not possible.

You can embed url’s so if you have a way to host this on a website that can be accomplished.

@Srikanth_Baheti @Ramon_Lopez can we pls prioritise this. to me this seems fairly easy as long Quicksight is browser based app. we have high pressing needs to render html content. there are many other tools which support this, one challenge we have is that our data in AWS so we are trying to stick to AWS tools as much as possible. it’s sad that there is not much happening on Quicksight
