Amazon QuickSight Embedding SDK

 
Thank you for using the Amazon QuickSight JavaScript SDK. You can use this SDK to embed Amazon QuickSight in your HTML.

Amazon QuickSight offers four different embedding experiences with options for user isolation with namespaces, and custom UI permissions.

* Dashboard Embedding
* Visual Embedding
* Console Embedding
* QSearchBar Embedding
* Generative Q&A Embedding
* Quick Chat Embedding

 

Installation

 

Option 1: Use the Amazon QuickSight Embedding SDK in the browser:
``html
...


...

...
`

Option 2: Install the Amazon QuickSight Embedding SDK in NodeJs:
`shell
npm install amazon-quicksight-embedding-sdk
`
and then use it in your code using require syntax
`javascript
const QuickSightEmbedding = require("amazon-quicksight-embedding-sdk");

const embeddingContext = await QuickSightEmbedding.createEmbeddingContext();
`

or, using named import syntax:

`javascript
import { createEmbeddingContext } from 'amazon-quicksight-embedding-sdk';

const embeddingContext = await createEmbeddingContext();
`

or, using wildcard import syntax:

`javascript
import * as QuickSightEmbedding from 'amazon-quicksight-embedding-sdk';

const embeddingContext = await QuickSightEmbedding.createEmbeddingContext();
`

 


Creating the Embedding Context

 

Use createEmbeddingContext method to create an embedding context. It returns a promise of EmbeddingContext type.

`typescript

export type CreateEmbeddingContext = (frameOptions?: EmbeddingContextFrameOptions) => Promise

export type EventListener = (
event: EmbeddingEvents,
metadata?: ExperienceFrameMetadata
) => void;

export type EmbeddingContextFrameOptions = {
onChange?: EventListener;
};

export type IEmbeddingContext = {
embedDashboard: (frameOptions: FrameOptions, contentOptions?: DashboardContentOptions) => Promise;
embedVisual: (frameOptions: FrameOptions, contentOptions?: VisualContentOptions) => Promise;
embedConsole: (frameOptions: FrameOptions, contentOptions?: ConsoleContentOptions) => Promise;
embedQSearchBar: (frameOptions: FrameOptions, contentOptions?: QSearchContentOptions) => Promise;
embedGenerativeQnA: (frameOptions: FrameOptions, contentOptions?: GenerativeQnAContentOptions) => Promise;
};
`

You can create the embedding context by calling createEmbeddingContext method without any arguments
`javascript
import { createEmbeddingContext } from 'amazon-quicksight-embedding-sdk';

const embeddingContext: EmbeddingContext = await createEmbeddingContext();

`

or, you can pass an object argument with onChange property

`javascript
import { createEmbeddingContext } from 'amazon-quicksight-embedding-sdk';

const embeddingContext: EmbeddingContext = await createEmbeddingContext({
onChange: (changeEvent) => {
console.log('Context received a change', changeEvent);
},
});
`

The embedding context creates an additional zero-pixel iframe and appends it into the body element on the page to centralize communication between the SDK and the embedded QuickSight content.

 


Embedding the Amazon QuickSight Experiences

 

An EmbeddingContext instance exposes 6 experience methods

* embedDashboard
* embedVisual
* embedConsole
* embedQSearchBar
* embedGenerativeQnA
* embedQuickChat

These methods take 2 parameters:

* frameOptions (required)
* contentOptions (optional)

`typescript
import { createEmbeddingContext } from 'amazon-quicksight-embedding-sdk';

const embeddingContext = await createEmbeddingContext();

const {
embedDashboard,
embedVisual,
embedConsole,
embedQSearchBar,
} = embeddingContext;

const frameOptions = {
//...
};
const contentOptions = {
//...
};

// Embedding a dashboard experience
const embeddedDashboardExperience = await embedDashboard(frameOptions, contentOptions);

// Embedding a visual experience
const embeddedVisualExperience = await embedVisual(frameOptions, contentOptions);

// Embedding a console experience
const embeddedConsoleExperience = await embedConsole(frameOptions, contentOptions);

// Embedding a Q search bar experience
const embeddedQSearchExperience = await embedQSearchBar(frameOptions, contentOptions);

// Embedding a Quick Chat experience
const embeddedQuickChatExperience = await embedQuickChat(frameOptions, contentOptions);

`

#### 🔹 url: string (required)

This is the embed URL you have generated using the QuickSight API Operations for Embedding.

Follow Embedding with the QuickSight API in the Amazon QuickSight User Guide to generate the url.

For each experience, you need to make sure that the users are granted the necessary permissions to view the embedded experience.

#### 🔹 container: string | HTMLElement (required)

This is the parent HTMLElement where we're going to embed QuickSight.

It can be an HTMLElement:
`javascript
container: document.getElementById("experience-container")
`
Or, it can be a query selector string:
`javascript
container: "#experience-container"
`

#### 🔹 width: string (optional, default='100%'),
You can set width for the iframe that holds your embedded QuickSight experience. You can set it to be a fixed value:
`javascript
width: "1000px"
`
Or, a relative value:
`javascript
width: "60%"
`

To make your embedded QuickSight experience responsive, don't set it (leave them at the default: 100%). Then you can make the container HTMLElement responsive to screen size change.

#### 🔹 height: string (optional, default='100%')

You can set height for the iframe that holds your embedded QuickSight experience. You can set it to be a fixed value:
`javascript
height: "700px"
`

Or, a relative value:
`javascript
height: "80%"
`

To make your embedded QuickSight experience responsive, don't set it (leave them at the default: 100%). Then you can make the container HTMLElement responsive to screen size change.

#### 🔹 className: string (optional)

You can customize style of the iframe that holds your embedded experience by one of the followings:

- Option 1: Use the "quicksight-embedding-iframe" class we predefined for you:
`
.quicksight-embedding-iframe {
margin: 5px;
}
`
- Option 2: Or, create your own class and pass in through className property:
`
.your-own-class {
margin: 5px;
}
`
`javascript
const option = { className: "your-own-class" }
`

We've overridden the border and padding of the iframe to be 0px, because setting border and padding on the iframe might cause unexpected issues. If you have to set border and padding on the embedded QuickSight session, set it on the container div that contains the iframe.

#### 🔹 withIframePlaceholder: boolean (optional, default=false)

It renders a simple spinner in the embedded experience container while the contents of the embedding experience iframe is being loaded.

#### 🔹 onChange: EventListener (optional)

This callback is invoked when there is a change in the SDK code status.

`
export type EventListener = (event: EmbeddingEvents, metadata?: ExperienceFrameMetadata) => void;

export interface ChangeEvent {
eventName: EventName,
eventLevel: ChangeEventLevel,
message?: EventMessageValue,
data?: EventData
}

export type ExperienceFrameMetadata = {
frame: EmbeddingIFrameElement | null;
};

See Common Properties of frameOptions for All Embedding Experiences for url, container, width, height, className, withIframePlaceholder, onChange, framePermissions, properties

 
#### resizeHeightOnSizeChangedEvent: boolean (optional, default: false)

Use resizeHeightOnSizeChangedEvent to allow changing the iframe height when the height of the embedded content changed.
`json
{
"height": "300px",
"resizeHeightOnSizeChangedEvent": true
}
`

When the resizeHeightOnSizeChangedEvent property is set to true, the value of the height property acts as a loading height.

Note: With the resizeHeightOnSizeChangedEvent set to true, modals generated by the dashboard can be hidden if the content is larger than the screen. An example of this type of modal is the one that displays when you select "Export to CSV" on a Table visual. To solve this issue, you can add the following code to autoscroll the focus to the modal.
`javascript
const contentOptions = {
//...
onMessage: (messageEvent, metadata) => {
switch (messageEvent.eventName) {
case 'MODAL_OPENED': {
window.scrollTo({
top: 0 // iframe top position
});
break;
}
//...
}
},
}
`

Visual Embedding

 

Visual Embedding provides an interactive read-only experience.

For more information, see Embedding Amazon QuickSight Visuals in the Amazon QuickSight User Guide.

 

$3

 

Use embedVisual method to embed a dashboard visual. It returns a promise of VisualExperience type.

`typescript
export class VisualExperience extends BaseExperience {
setParameters: (parameters: Parameter[]) => Promise>;
reset: () => Promise;
getActions: () => Promise;
addActions: (actions: VisualAction[]) => Promise;
setActions: (actions: VisualAction[]) => Promise;
removeActions: (actions: VisualAction[]) => Promise;
getFilterGroups: () => Promise;
addFilterGroups: (filterGroups: FilterGroup[]) => Promise;
updateFilterGroups: (filterGroups: FilterGroup[]) => Promise;
removeFilterGroups: (filterGroupsOrIds: FilterGroup[] | string[]) => Promise;
setTheme: (themeArn: string) => Promise;
setThemeOverride: (themeOverride: ThemeConfiguration) => Promise
send: (messageEvent: EmbeddingMessageEvent) => Promise>;
}

See Common Properties of frameOptions for All Embedding Experiences for url, container, width, height, className, withIframePlaceholder, onChange, framePermissions properties

 
#### resizeHeightOnSizeChangedEvent: boolean (optional, default: false)

Use resizeHeightOnSizeChangedEvent to allow changing the iframe height when the height of the embedded content changed.
`json
{
"height": "300px",
"resizeHeightOnSizeChangedEvent": true
}
`

When the resizeHeightOnSizeChangedEvent property is set to true, the value of the height property acts as a loading height.

See Common Properties of contentOptions for All Embedding Experiences for locale and parameters properties

#### 🔹 parameters: Parameter[] (optional)

It allows you to set initial parameter values for your embedded QuickSight visual. Pass an array as value for multi-value parameters.
For more information about parameters in Amazon QuickSight, see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/quicksight/latest/user/parameters-in-quicksight.html

#### 🔹 fitToIframeWidth: boolean (optional, default=true)

If this is set to false, the visual keeps its dimensions as it was designed within its dashboard layout. Otherwise, it adjusts its width to match the iframe's width, while maintaining the original aspect ratio.

The observed behavior of the fitToIframeWidth property varies depending on the layout setting of the underlying dashboard that the visual is a part of:

In Tiled and Free-form layouts, the width is fixed. When the fitToIframeWidth property is toggled, the width changes between fixed width and full iframe width.

In Classic layout, the width is responsive. Since the visual already fits to the width of the iframe, it remains full iframe width even when the fitToIframeWidth property is set to false.

#### 🔹 scaleToContainer: boolean (optional, default=false)
If this is set to true, the visual adjusts its width and height automatically to fit the entire viewport within the iframe while the iframe width and height are adjusted.
The resizing doesn't adhere to the original aspect ratio.
This performance will take precedence when both scaleToContainer and fitToIframeWidth are true.

#### 🔹 onMessage: SimpleMessageEventHandler (optional)

The eventNames the visual experience receives

CONTENT_LOADED: Received when the visuals of the Amazon QuickSight dashboard are fully loaded
ERROR_OCCURRED: Received when an error occurred while rendering the Amazon QuickSight visual. The message contains errorCode. The error codes are:
- Forbidden -- the URL's authentication code expired
- Unauthorized -- the session obtained from the authentication code expired
If you follow the instructions to generate the correct URL, but you still receive these error codes, you need to generate a new URL.
PARAMETERS_CHANGED: Received when the parameters in Amazon QuickSight dashboard changes.
SIZE_CHANGED: Received when the size of the Amazon QuickSight dashboard changes.

#### 🔹 setParameters: (parameters: Parameter[]) => Promise<ResponseMessage>;

Use this function to update parameter values. Pass an array as value for multi-value parameters.
You can build your own UI to trigger this, so that viewers of the embedded QuickSight session can control it from your app page.

Parameters in an embedded experience session can be set by using the following call:
`javascript
embeddedVisualExperience.setParameters([
{
Name: 'country',
Values: ['United States'],
},
{
Name: 'states',
Values: ['California', 'Washington'],
}
]);
`
