Create an Analysis
It’s possible to change an existing dashboard and customize existing visuals and also add your own visuals with your own business logic. The first step in order to have an editable dashboard is to create an Analysis from the dashboard deployed in your account. This is effectively a branch from the main template and any dashboard you publish from here will be separate from your templated dashboard.

-
Visit the dashboard you wish to customize in QuickSight
-
In the top right, click the Share icon, then choose Share dashboard from the dropdown
-
Toggle Allow "save as" for your own user account and click on Confirm in the "Enable save as" prompt
-
Click the Go back link in the top left
-
When you’re returned to the dashboard, refresh the web page by reloading the URL or pressing the browser refresh button
-
Now you will see a new Save icon in the upper right corner
-
Click on Save icon and enter a name for Analysis, for example CUDOS Analysis and click on Save button
-
Wait for a few seconds and the customizable Analysis will open in the same window.

Once you have a customizable QuickSight Analysis created from the above steps, you can begin to implement the customizations outlined in this section of the workshop. Click Next below to see the first module on Adding Tags!
