CreateNamespace

Use the CreateNamespace API operation to create a new namespace for you to use with Amazon QuickSight.

You can create a namespace after your AWS account is subscribed to Amazon QuickSight. The namespace must be unique within the AWS account. By default, there is a limit of 100 namespaces per AWS account. To increase your limit, create a ticket with AWS Support.

Following is an example AWS CLI command for this operation.

AWS CLI

aws quicksight create-namespace 
    --aws-account-id AWSACCOUNTID 
    --namespace NAMESPACE \
    --identity-store QUICKSIGHT

You can also make this command using a CLI skeleton file with the following command. For more information about CLI skeleton files, see Using CLI skeleton files.

aws quicksight create-namespace 
    --cli-input-json file://createnamespace.json

For more information about the CreateNamespace API operation, see CreateNamespace in the Amazon QuickSight API Reference.
