Description

Amazon QuickSight API Reference

Amazon QuickSight is a fully managed, serverless, cloud business intelligence service that makes it easy to extend data and insights to every user in your organization. This API interface reference contains documentation for a programming interface that you can use to manage Amazon QuickSight.

Installing

To install the this package using NPM, simply type the following into a terminal window:

npm install @aws-sdk/client-quicksight-node

Getting Started

Import

The AWS SDK is modulized by clients and commands in CommonJS modules. To send a request, you only need to import the client(QuickSightClient) and the commands you need, for example CreateGroupCommand:

//JavaScript
const {
  QuickSightClient
} = require("@aws-sdk/client-quicksight-node/QuickSightClient");
const {
  CreateGroupCommand
} = require("@aws-sdk/client-quicksight-node/commands/CreateGroupCommand");

//TypeScript
import { QuickSightClient } from "@aws-sdk/client-quicksight-node/QuickSightClient";
import { CreateGroupCommand } from "@aws-sdk/client-quicksight-node/commands/CreateGroupCommand";

Usage

To send a request, you:

• Initiate client with configuration (e.g. credentials, region). For more information you can refer to the API reference.
• Initiate command with input parameters.
• Call send operation on client with command object as input.
• If you are using a custom http handler, you may call destroy() to close open connections.

const quickSight = new QuickSightClient({region: 'region'});
//clients can be shared by different commands
const params = {
  GroupName: /**a string value*/,
  AwsAccountId: /**a string value*/,
  Namespace: /**a string value*/,
};
const createGroupCommand = new CreateGroupCommand(params);
quickSight.send(createGroupCommand).then(data => {
    // do something
}).catch(error => {
    // error handling
})

In addition to using promises, there are 2 other ways to send a request:

// async/await
try {
  const data = await quickSight.send(createGroupCommand);
  // do something
} catch (error) {
  // error handling
}

// callback
quickSight.send(createGroupCommand, (err, data) => {
  //do something
});

The SDK can also send requests using the simplified callback style from version 2 of the SDK.

import * as AWS from "@aws-sdk/@aws-sdk/client-quicksight-node/QuickSight";
const quickSight = new AWS.QuickSight({ region: "region" });
quickSight.createGroup(params, (err, data) => {
  //do something
});

Troubleshooting

When the service returns an exception, the error will include the exception information, as well as response metadata (e.g. request id).

try {
  const data = await quickSight.send(createGroupCommand);
  // do something
} catch (error) {
  const metadata = error.$metadata;
  console.log(
    `requestId: ${metadata.requestId}
cfId: ${metadata.cfId}
extendedRequestId: ${metadata.extendedRequestId}`
  );
  /*
The keys within exceptions are also parsed. You can access them by specifying exception names:
    if(error.name === 'SomeServiceException') {
        const value = error.specialKeyInException;
    }
*/
}
