Cannot edit in read_only editor

1

Hi

Weeks ago I wrote sql query and created visualization from scratch. Now after holiday I can not edit my own sql code and get message cannot edit in read-only editor. I was able to do so before holiday without an issue.

Thanks a lot for your help.

Kind regards: Peter

Hi Peter, check out the following:

  1. https://community.amazonquicksight.com/t/unable-to-edit-custom-sql-of-a-dataset/4644/10
  2. https://community.amazonquicksight.com/t/share-dashboard-with-another-qs-author-how-to-grant-permissions-to-change-custom-sql/3361/5

I find the Amazon QuickSight community forums to be the best place for questions around QS. These threads provides a few solutions to grant permission - let me know if this helps.

Finally if you're trying to edit the data after it's published check out : https://repost.aws/questions/QUaDUzxjLwSNqD76pfYv3yQg/can-you-edit-the-data-in-an-amazon-quicksight-dashboard-after-it-s-published

"An Amazon QuickSight dashboard is a read-only snapshot of an analysis, so the the data displayed within a published dashboard can't be edited.

To allow dashboard users to use a calculation within a dashboard and transform data that is shown in an analysis, you can use parameters in Amazon QuickSight."

If this answer helped, please accept the answer,
