Connecting Smartsheet (preview) to Amazon Q Business
Smartsheet is an enterprise work management platform that lets users manage projects, programs and processes at scale using sheets, channels, and workspaces. You can connect your Smartsheet instance to Amazon Q Business—using either the AWS Management Console, CLI, or the CreateDataSource API—and create an Amazon Q Business web experience.
Integrating Smartsheet as a data source in Amazon Q Business enables users to quickly get insights from project sheets. For example, users can ask questions like:
-
"Which project manager is responsible for Project Harpo?", where the answer comes from a Smartsheet row
-
"What are the requirements for the Create APIs task?", where the answer is fetched from a PDF attached to the row for Create APIs
-
"Who is the owner of the Individual Task Management workspace?", where the answer comes from workspace metadata
The Amazon Q Business Smartsheet connector understands user access permissions and strictly enforces them at the time of the query. This ensures that users aren't able to see content they don't have access to.
