Question & Answer

Hello QuickSigh team,
Is there a way to verison control quicksight reports? I had a situation earlier where Dataset wad deleted . Now, It was not documeneted and I lost all canges. How cna I version control each changes in my quicksight report? For other reporting tool for example: ssrs. I can save the rdl file in github easily. How do everyone here version their quicksight analyses and datasets? Is there a way to download the analyses and save it? We are till not full blown quicksight as we still do not know if we can version control these reports. I am wondering how everyone els eis doing it in production.
Thanks
Ro

Hi @kochar,

Thank you for posting.

There are various ways you can go about this

  1. Exporting your assets as JSON files. Documentation can be accessed here
  2. Datasets versioning. Documentation can be found here
  3. Using Templates for your analyses and dashboard.

Regards,
Demola

Hi
For version control I don’t think so it’s available in quicksight. As a way around you can copy/Saveas your analysis and take backup for you.

For data recovery this might be helpful for you.

So you can save your analysis to your locla computer and recreate again in the cloud by uplaodng those files? I did not see that option

Hi @kochar,
It’s been awhile since we last heard from you on this thread, did you have any additional questions regarding your initial post?
QuickSight recently published a new update that revolves around the added ability of dashboard versioning, you can review at the attached article below:

Let us know if you have any remaining or additional questions regarding your post. If we do not hear back within the next 3 business days, I’ll close out this topic.
