Email Report for a BRIGHT Dashboard

Steps to Configure Email Reports

1. Access the Dashboard:

   • Log in to your Amazon QuickSight account.

   • Navigate to the dashboard you intend to share.​

2. Schedule the Report:

   • Click on the Share button located at the top-right corner of the dashboard.

   • Select Schedule email report from the dropdown menu.​

3. Configure Email Settings:

   • Report Name: Enter a name for the scheduled report.

   • Recurrence: Choose how often the report should be sent (e.g., daily, weekly).

   • Time: Set the time of day for the report delivery.

   • Time Zone: Select the appropriate time zone.​

4. Add Recipients:

   • In the To field, enter the email addresses of the recipients.

   • Note: Recipients must have QuickSight accounts within the same subscription.​

5. Customize Message (Optional):

   • Add a subject line and message body for the email.​

6. Save the Schedule:

   • Click Create to save the scheduled email report.​

Important Notes

• Only BRIGHT EDITOR users with QuickSight accounts in the same subscription can receive scheduled reports directly.​

• To share reports with individuals outside the BRIGHT EDITOR users, consider forwarding the email manually or setting up an automatic forwarding rule in your email client.​

Suggested Method:

1. Schedule Reports to Your Account: Set up the desired report schedule to be sent to the email linked with your account (IAM user).

2. Automate Email Forwarding: Set up your email client (e.g., Outlook, Gmail) to automatically forward these reports to the recipients' email addresses. You can establish a specific subject line to facilitate the automatic forwarding setup.
