Working with datasets

Datasets are the foundation of your Quick Sight analytics, serving as the prepared and structured data sources that power your analyses and dashboards. Once you've created datasets from your data sources, you need to manage them effectively throughout their lifecycle to ensure reliable, secure, and collaborative analytics.

This section covers the complete dataset management workflow, from editing and versioning datasets to sharing them with team members and implementing security controls. You'll learn how to maintain dataset integrity while supporting collaborative analytics, track which analyses depend on your datasets, and implement both row-level and column-level security to protect sensitive information. Whether you're preparing datasets for team use, troubleshooting analysis issues, or implementing data governance policies, these topics provide the essential knowledge for effective dataset management in Quick Sight.
