Set Refresh Frequency via API

Question & Answer

Hi All,

When I’m creating a new dataset via the API can I set the refresh to be hourly? I don’t see any way to do this through the documentation?

Hi @dmarcus

QuickSight supports CreateIngestion API that invokes a full refresh of a SPICE data set. Using this API, you can manually refresh datasets in an Enterprise edition account 32 times in a 24-hour period. You can manually refresh datasets in a Standard edition account 8 times in a 24-hour period. Each 24-hour period is measured starting 24 hours before the current date and time.

You can create a script to invoke this API programmatically at any interval you prefer.
