Question & Answer

AWS Cost and Usage reports are stored in S3 and are being visualised in QuickSight
At the beginning of each month the manifest file needs to be updated in order to include the new month’s AWS consumption data
How can I change the json manifest file for the dataset stored in S3, so that more data are added to the dataset?

Hi @leotos
You can use URI Prefixes to specify the entire folder in S3 so that you dont have to change the manifest every time. QuickSight also picks file from sub-folders.
