Question on Quicksight Real-time Dashboard Update

Hi everyone,

I’m curious to know if there are plans to introduce native real-time streaming capabilities for Amazon Quick Sight dashboards. Specifically, will there be support for continuous, automatic updates of dashboard data as new data streams in, without requiring manual refreshes or scheduled updates?

Thank you,
Shravya

Hi @shravya,
Just to clarify, as opposed to talking about Direct Query, you mean more specifically that data on visuals just smoothly update as opposed to a visual or page refresh?

I can mark this as a feature request to promote visibility to the support team.

Thank you!

Hi @Brett,

Yes, I am specifically referring to smooth visual updates, where the data on the visuals updates seamlessly without requiring a manual refresh of the visual or the page.

That would be great if it is added to a feature request.

Thank you,
Shravya

Second this request - it would open up new use-cases for QS (including control-centre type scenarios), plus be a helpful selling proposition for existing dashboards for when data is more dynamic and may change while the dashboard is still open.
I believe this is something that other competing platforms are capable of handling, e.g. Power BI Real-Time Intelligence

There is a solution in the following blog post talking about dashboard with auto refresh using Direct Query. Agree that we should continue to improve to make it more streamline
