Most visuals in Cloud Intelligence Dashboards read "No Data"

Question

Most, say 95%, of the visuals in the imported CID dashboard indicate "No Data".  The data preview via the summary_view Data Set looks correct, but and verified that if I create a new Analysis with a similar visuals, the datasets return the correct data.

The imported dashboard are pretty complex and I'm having a difficult time trying to figure out why the visuals say No Data. Even a simple query like S3 storage spend comes back as No Data.

Any hints on how to debug this? I've shared the Dashboard, created a copy, and started looking through the copy, but I still can't seem to get a basic visual created from data from the summary_view Data Set.

Edit: I've imported the dashboard with terraform aws_quicksight_dashboard using arn:aws:quicksight:us-east-1:223485597511:template/Cost_Intelligence_Dashboard (v9) and tried arn:aws:quicksight:us-east-1:223485597511:template/Cost_Intelligence_Dashboard/version/8 as well.

Edit: It appears to be something with the billing_period filters. If I start removing those, data shows up.

At the end I realized that I didn't have all the CUR data into the s3 bucket based on an expiration rule that caused objects to be deleted. Once I restored those and rebuilt the datasets, everything was successful.

Your observation is correct. By default, CID dashboard shows data for past few months. As long as your underlying [Cost and Usage Report ](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cur/latest/userguide/what-is-cur.html) has data and your datasets are refreshed, you can adjust the months by using the 'billing_period' filter, and this can resolve the "No Data" issue.
