ML-Forecast not working in the new version of quicksight

Q&A

Hi community,
I’m encountering some challenges while trying to add a week’s forecast to my data. I’ve checked a tutorial for the old version (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2x3MRafqo4) and it seems to be exactly what I need. However, with the new version, I’m struggling to adapt this feature to my requirements and display it in the visual. Can anyone offer some guidance?

Hello Francisco,

What is exactly the problem you are facing? are you receiving an specific error code?

Thank you.
Arturo

In the new version when I click to add the forecast (in the insight) nothing appears. I manage to change to the old version of quicksight and it is working. Although, now I am facing a new issue, I want to create a narrative out of the forecast that I am getting from the visual, but I cannot. The insight to create a narrative is not on the same dates as the forecast is, is there any way to get the information of the forecast to a customize narrative?

Please make sure that the line chart and the narrative have the same aggregation and filters applied.

The limitation with the narrative way vs the visual forecast (in the line chart) is that you can’t have the values for the upper and lower bound.

Thank you, it works well.

In this case, I would like to customize the insight further. Is it possible for me to specify the exact day I wish to forecast? It appears that the selection of this day is determined by certain parameters that you define, but I am unable to modify them or locate where such adjustments can be made.

Once in the editor, you have to click the pencil icon on the right:

This will open a new window where you will be able to change some parameters, like periods forward (months, days, years, etc), Prediction interval, seasonality, etc.
