A way to backup personal Quicksight dashboards/assets

I've located the following references which may be helpful, in terms of backing up your QuickSight resources.

• https://docs.aws.amazon.com/quicksight/latest/user/copying-a-dashboard.html
• https://docs.aws.amazon.com/quicksight/latest/user/managing-users-enterprise.html
• https://docs.aws.amazon.com/quicksight/latest/user/saving-changes-to-an-analysis.html

I would suggest opening a support case with our Billing team directly for assistance & guidance with reducing the billing on your account, here: http://go.aws/support-center. This way, an accurate analysis can be made of your request, to avoid the loss of any important data on your account.

Thank you. So this means that since Quicksight does not support backup/restore and metadata export, it also cannot be integrated with source control and therefore not an enterprise-grade software yet? Are there any plans to implement source control integration?

Other than CloudFormation, there is support for Amazon QuickSight object migration and version control with the use of QuickSight APIs. Please refer to this blog post and demo/code sample

There already are pending feature requests for this to be easier using the console or CLI.

QuickSight assets, i.e. data sets, analysis, dashboards, are considered as code and a critical part of our company. I guess behind the scenes, QuickSight stores its assets in DynamoDB. There should be a way to routinely (say daily) make a backup of all the assets on the account. This would look great if its integrated into AWS Backup service.
