Amazon Quicksight in SageMaker Unified Studio

Enabling Amazon QuickSight integration in Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio allows data consumers to directly visualize and analyze data from the SageMaker Catalog using QuickSight. With QuickSight in Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio, users can access their data and employ the built-in business intelligence visualization capabilities reaching a seamless data analysis workflow.

With this integration, users can go from exploring data in Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio to visualizing it in QuickSight with a single click. Behind the scenes, Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio creates a QuickSight dataset and organizes it in a secured folder accessible only to members within the project. Any dashboards you build in QuickSight stay within this folder and are automatically added as assets to your Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio project, where you can publish them to the SageMaker Catalog. From there, you can share them with users or groups in your corporate directory for broader access—all within Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio. This keeps your dashboards organized, discoverable, shareable, and governed, making cross-team collaboration and asset reuse much easier.

Important

To enable the QuickSight blueprint in an AWS account, you must meet the following required conditions:

  • Your Amazon SageMaker unified domain and QuickSight account both must be integrated with AWS IAM Identity Center using the same Identity Center instance.

  • Your QuickSight account must exist in the same AWS Account where you are looking to enable the QuickSight blueprint.

Enable the QuickSight blueprint

  2. Choose View domains or View associated domains depending on whether you want to enable the Quicksight blueprint in the domain owner AWS account or the associated AWS account and then choose that domain by choosing its name from the list. The name is a hyperlink.

  3. On the domain's details page, navigate to the Blueprints tab.

  4. In the Blueprints tab, locate the QuickSight blueprint. You can either choose the radio button next to the QuickSight blueprint and then choose the Enable button. Or you can choose the QuickSight blueprint (the name is a hyperlink) and then on the blueprint details page, choose Enable in this account.

    • Authorized domain units - these are domain units where projects can access resources defined by this blueprint. You can use the text field to search for the domain units and then the Add button to add them to the list of authorized domain units.

Complete the following steps to add the Quicksight blueprint to an existing project profile. You can only do this in the domain owner AWS account.

Add the QuickSight blueprint to an existing project profile

  1. Navigate to the Amazon SageMaker management console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/datazone and use the region selector in the top navigation bar to choose the appropriate AWS Region.

  2. Choose View domains and then choose the domain that you're working with by choosing its name from the list. The name is a hyperlink.

  3. On the domain's details page, navigate to the Project profiles tab and then choose the project profile to which you want to add the Quicksight blueprint. It can be either the All capabilities project profile, or the Generative AI application development project profile, or the SQL analytics project profile, or an existing custom project profile.

  4. On the chosen project profile's details page, choose Add blueprint deployment settings.

  5. On the Add blueprint deployment settings page, specify the following and then choose Add blueprint deployment settings.

    • Blueprint deployment settings name

    • Blueprint deployment settings description - optional

    • Under Blueprint, use the drop-down menu to choose Quicksight.

    • Deployment properties - the account and region where you want this blueprint deployment settings to be created. Note that the corresponding blueprint should be enabled in this account and region so that the blueprint deployment settings could be created successfully. This is also where you can specify the Mode, choosing between On create (deploy the blueprint deployment settings as soon as the project is created) or On demand (deploy blueprint deployment settings when users need it) and the deployment order.

    • AWS SSM Parameter Store path in AWS Systems Manager Parameters Store that contains parameters definition.

    • Blueprint parameters - these parameter values that will be used during project creation. You can override values that are set as blueprint or SSM values and check the Editable box if you want the values to be provided during project creation.

Note

It is recommend when you add the Quicksight blueprint to a project profile together with at least one of the following blueprints - LakehouseDatabase, LakehouseCatalog, RedshiftServerless. For more information, see Blueprints in Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio.

If you include the above blueprint(s), it is also recommended that in the blueprint deployment configuration, you keep the order of the Quicksight blueprint after the LakehouseDatabase, LakehouseCatalog, RedshiftServerless blueprints.

You can also add the Quicksight blueprint to a new custom project profile. For more information on creating custom project profiles, see Custom project profile.
