AWS SSO integration with QuickSight

Question

A customer asks what information we need to enter on AWS SSO and on QuickSight to integrate the federated authentication. Unfortunately I can't find any documentation online. It seems like it is possible, but undocumented. Any information/examples would be appreciated.

Accepted Answer

When you add the Quicksight app in AWS SSO, there is an instructions page with everything you need. The URL is generic, but long as be damned. I've hyper-linked it, [here][1].

The Quicksight steps for configuring the service with SAML stands with AWS SSO, though. So there shouldn't be much issue from using those [intructions][2] either. If you or your customer find any issue with the instructions provided through the app in AWS SSO, then have them raise a support request with the AWS SSO service, explaining what steps are causing issue. Support will push the feedback on to the app team in AWS SSO and the instructions will be updated.
