How do I manage inactive users in Quick Sight?

Resolution

In Quick Sight, a user is either active, inactive, or deleted. The following factors determine how Quick Sight determines user status:

• Users are active as soon as they log into Quick Sight for the first time.
• Even if users don't log in for several months after their first login, users are active and billed.
• Inactive users are those who haven't logged into Quick Sight after they received an invitation. Or, they're users that have been deleted recently.
• Deleted users appear in the Inactive users list until the first day of the following month. After then, they're automatically removed.
• If a user is removed from IAM Identity Center, Active Directory, or a group associated with a Quick Sight role, then they're deleted.

To list active users in your Quick Sight account, use the following AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI) command:

Note: If you receive errors when you run AWS CLI commands, then see Troubleshooting errors for the AWS CLI. Also, make sure that you're using the most recent AWS CLI version.

aws quicksight list-users --aws-account-id \[ACCOUNT\_ID\] --namespace default

To make an active user inactive, you must delete them. For information on how to delete a user, see DeleteUser.
