Question & Answer

Hi @Perraudeau_Laurie, welcome to the QuickSight Community! I am not sure I will be able to tell you which data-source is connected, but I may be able to help guide you through how to check the data-source with some options I have added below:

The following depends on the access permissions you currently have:

  1. If you have access to the analysis:
    a. You can check which dataset is connected under “Dataset” on the left-hand side of the screen

    b. If you have access to the dataset, then you can:
    - go to the data source and trace back to the connection to review the data
    OR
    - (If one does not already exist) create a new table visual in the analysis that contains all of the columns to get a sense of what the raw data looks like, and how it might be being rolled-up

    c. If you do not have access to the dataset then please ask the dataset owner to share the dataset with you, or ask them to review the data:
    - Sharing datasets - Amazon QuickSight

    d. If you are not sure who the dataset owner is, then I would recommend reaching out to the QuickSight account admin for the account where the dashboard exists

  2. If you have access to the dashboard:
    A. You can view the connected datasources via the “Data” button on the top-right corner of the screen, and follow steps b-d from above

    b. If the table visual is rolled-up into a summary view, you may be able to expand the columns to see more details via the + button on the visual (there is a chance it may not be available on the visual depending on how it was setup)

I hope this helps! Feel free to reach out if you have any additional questions.
