source Entity
The entity that you are using as a source when you create the dashboard. In SourceEntity
, you specify the type of object that you want to use. 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 AWS account; and any QuickSight-supported AWS 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.
