what are the pros and cons of using 1 click embedding and api based embedding?

Hello Tisha,

May be the potential comparison of 1-click embedding vs. API-based embedding in QuickSight would look like below:

1-Click Embedding:

Pros:

  • Simple and quick to implement

  • No coding required

  • Ideal for basic embedding needs

  • Works well for internal applications

  • Faster time to market

Cons:

  • Limited customization options

  • Less control over user experience

  • Cannot customize the QuickSight UI

  • Not suitable for complex integration scenarios

API-Based Embedding:

Pros:

  • High degree of customization

  • Complete control over user experience

  • Can customize UI elements

  • Ability to integrate with custom authentication

  • Can control individual visual elements

  • Better suited for customer-facing applications

  • Can implement custom actions and interactions

Cons:

  • More complex to implement

  • Requires development effort and expertise

  • Longer implementation time

  • Requires more maintenance

  • Higher initial development cost

Choose 1-Click Embedding if:

  • You need quick implementation

  • Internal use cases

  • Basic embedding requirements

  • Limited development resources

Choose API-Based Embedding if:

  • You need extensive customization

  • Customer-facing applications

  • Complex integration requirements

  • Have development resources available

  • Multi-tenant applications

  • Need granular control over the experience

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
