I am trying to develop a new method in my frontend application that is able to retrieve the ID of the open analysis in my embedded Quicksight console using the Quicksight SDK. With this ID, I want to retrieve meta information about this analysis, such as datasets used to create the analysis, etc. However, there is no method to retrieve information about the currently open analysis. The onMessage method for content options only provides the information about the PAGE_NAVIGATION, but not the analysis ID.
Is your frontend app the same place where you have embedded the QuickSight console? Also, is it required to capture the analysis ID post-embedding? I think it would be easier to capture the ID before embedding or directly from QuickSight.
Ultimately you would want to use DescribeAnalysis to retrieve the analysis meta data:
yes the console is in my frontend app embedded. I must at least enter the ID of the selected analysis in order to obtain information if required. DescribeAnalysis won’t help me if I don’t know which analysis my users selected.
