Query (execute) analysis and get data through the API?

Question & Answer
,

I’ve been reading the docs, and I saw that there was a DescribeAnalysis endpoint for getting info about the analysis, but I can’t seem to find any endpoint that actually executes the query from the analysis and returns the data for me.

I would like to integrate QuickSight into a project not with its iframe embedding API, but rather me having my own charts and logic, and I would like to take just the data from the analysis so I could render it on my web app however I want. I also would also like to be able to use filters at runtime-execution assuming that is possible.

So is there an endpoint for executing the analysis and getting the raw data?

Hi @amcsi - Welcome to AWS QuickSight community and thanks for posting the question. QuickSight API’s are contain the metadata information NOT the actual data. for example it can provide the details like data sets name, details, permission, table and column details. For your requirement can you explore the QuickSight embedded functionality where you can embedded QuickSight dashboards in any third party applications. See the below documentation for the same.
