create-dashboard

Description

Creates a dashboard from a template. To first create a template, see the `` CreateTemplate `` API operation.

A dashboard is an entity in Amazon QuickSight that identifies Amazon QuickSight reports, created from analyses. You can share Amazon QuickSight dashboards. With the right permissions, you can create scheduled email reports from them. If you have the correct permissions, you can create a dashboard from a template that exists in a different Amazon Web Services account.

JSON Syntax:

    {
      "Name": "string",
      "Values": ["string", ...]
    }
    ...
  ],
  "IntegerParameters": [
    {
      "Name": "string",

    }
    ...
  ],

  ],
  "DateTimeParameters": [
    {
      "Name": "string",
      "Values": [timestamp, ...]
    }
    ...
  ]
}

--permissions (list)

A structure that contains the permissions of the dashboard. You can use this structure for granting permissions by providing a list of IAM action information for each principal ARN.

To specify no permissions, omit the permissions list.

(structure)

Permission for the resource.

Principal -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the principal. This can be one of the following:

  • The ARN of an Amazon QuickSight user or group associated with a data source or dataset. (This is common.)

  • The ARN of an Amazon QuickSight user, group, or namespace associated with an analysis, dashboard, template, or theme. (This is common.)

  • The ARN of an Amazon Web Services account root: This is an IAM ARN rather than a QuickSight ARN. Use this option only to share resources (templates) across Amazon Web Services accounts. (This is less common.)

Actions -> (list)

The IAM action to grant or revoke permissions on.

(string)

Shorthand Syntax:

Principal=string,Actions=string,string ...

JSON Syntax:

[
  {
    "Principal": "string",

  }
  ...
]

--source-entity (structure)

The entity that you are using as a source when you create the dashboard. In SourceEntity , you specify the type of object you’re using as source. You can only create a dashboard from a template, so you use a SourceTemplate entity. If you need to create a dashboard from an analysis, first convert the analysis to a template by using the `` CreateTemplate `` API operation. For SourceTemplate , specify the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the source template. The SourceTemplate ARN can contain any Amazon Web Services account and any Amazon QuickSight-supported Amazon Web Services Region.

Use the DataSetReferences entity within SourceTemplate to list the replacement datasets for the placeholders listed in the original. The schema in each dataset must match its placeholder.

SourceTemplate -> (structure)

Source template.

DataSetReferences -> (list)

Dataset references.

(structure)

Dataset reference.

DataSetPlaceholder -> (string)

Dataset placeholder.

DataSetArn -> (string)

Dataset Amazon Resource Name (ARN).

Arn -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the resource.

JSON Syntax:

{
  "SourceTemplate": {
    "DataSetReferences": [
      {
        "DataSetPlaceholder": "string",
        "DataSetArn": "string"
      }
      ...
    ],
    "Arn": "string"
  }
}

--tags (list)

Contains a map of the key-value pairs for the resource tag or tags assigned to the dashboard.

(structure)

The key or keys of the key-value pairs for the resource tag or tags assigned to the resource.

Key -> (string)

Tag key.

Value -> (string)

Tag value.

Shorthand Syntax:

Key=string,Value=string ...

JSON Syntax:

[
  {
    "Key": "string",
    "Value": "string"
  }
  ...
]

--version-description (string)

A description for the first version of the dashboard being created.

--dashboard-publish-options (structure)

Options for publishing the dashboard when you create it:

  • AvailabilityStatus for AdHocFilteringOption - This status can be either ENABLED or DISABLED . When this is set to DISABLED , Amazon QuickSight disables the left filter pane on the published dashboard, which can be used for ad hoc (one-time) filtering. This option is ENABLED by default.

  • AvailabilityStatus for ExportToCSVOption - This status can be either ENABLED or DISABLED . The visual option to export data to .CSV format isn’t enabled when this is set to DISABLED . This option is ENABLED by default.

  • VisibilityState for SheetControlsOption - This visibility state can be either COLLAPSED or EXPANDED . This option is COLLAPSED by default.

AdHocFilteringOption -> (structure)

Ad hoc (one-time) filtering option.

AvailabilityStatus -> (string)

Availability status.

ExportToCSVOption -> (structure)

Export to .csv option.

AvailabilityStatus -> (string)

Availability status.

SheetControlsOption -> (structure)

Sheet controls option.

VisibilityState -> (string)

Visibility state.

Shorthand Syntax:

AdHocFilteringOption={AvailabilityStatus=string},ExportToCSVOption={AvailabilityStatus=string},SheetControlsOption={VisibilityState=string}

JSON Syntax:

{
  "AdHocFilteringOption": {
    "AvailabilityStatus": "ENABLED"|"DISABLED"
  },
  "ExportToCSVOption": {
    "AvailabilityStatus": "ENABLED"|"DISABLED"
  },
  "SheetControlsOption": {
    "VisibilityState": "EXPANDED"|"COLLAPSED"
  }
}

--theme-arn (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the theme that is being used for this dashboard. If you add a value for this field, it overrides the value that is used in the source entity. The theme ARN must exist in the same Amazon Web Services account where you create the dashboard.

--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string) Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.

Global Options

--debug (boolean)

Turn on debug logging.

--endpoint-url (string)

Override command’s default URL with the given URL.

--no-verify-ssl (boolean)

By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.

--no-paginate (boolean)

Disable automatic pagination.

--output (string)

The formatting style for command output.

  • json

  • text

  • table

  • yaml

  • yaml-stream

--query (string)

A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.

--profile (string)

Use a specific profile from your credential file.

--region (string)

The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.

--version (string)

Display the version of this tool.

--color (string)

Turn on/off color output.

  • on

  • off

  • auto

--no-sign-request (boolean)

Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.

--ca-bundle (string)

The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.

--cli-read-timeout (int)

The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-connect-timeout (int)

The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-binary-format (string)

The formatting style to be used for binary blobs. The default format is base64. The base64 format expects binary blobs to be provided as a base64 encoded string. The raw-in-base64-out format preserves compatibility with AWS CLI V1 behavior and binary values must be passed literally. When providing contents from a file that map to a binary blob fileb:// will always be treated as binary and use the file contents directly regardless of the cli-binary-format setting. When using file:// the file contents will need to properly formatted for the configured cli-binary-format.

  • base64

  • raw-in-base64-out

--no-cli-pager (boolean)

Disable cli pager for output.

--cli-auto-prompt (boolean)

Automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

--no-cli-auto-prompt (boolean)

Disable automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.
