The following example shows the .NET/C# code that you can use on the app server to generate the URL for the embedded Q search bar. You can use this URL in your website or app to display the Q search bar.

using Amazon.QuickSight.Model;

namespace GenerateQSearchBarEmbedUrlForAnonymousUser
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            var quicksightClient = new AmazonQuickSightClient(

                    = new AnonymousUserQSearchBarEmbeddingConfiguration
                    {
                        InitialTopicId = "U4zJMVZ2n2stZflc8Ou3iKySEb3BEV6f"
                    };
                AnonymousUserEmbeddingExperienceConfiguration anonymousUserEmbeddingExperienceConfiguration
                    = new AnonymousUserEmbeddingExperienceConfiguration
                    {
                        QSearchBar = anonymousUserQSearchBarEmbeddingConfiguration
                    }; 
                
                Console.WriteLine(
                    quicksightClient.GenerateEmbedUrlForAnonymousUserAsync(new GenerateEmbedUrlForAnonymousUserRequest
                    {
                        AwsAccountId = "111122223333",
                        Namespace = "DEFAULT",
                        AuthorizedResourceArns '["topic-arn-topicId1","topic-arn-topicId2"]',
                        AllowedDomains = allowedDomains,
                        ExperienceConfiguration = anonymousUserEmbeddingExperienceConfiguration,
                        SessionTags = '["Key": tag-key-1,"Value": tag-value-1,{"Key": tag-key-1,"Value": tag-value-1}]',
                        SessionLifetimeInMinutes = 15,
                    }).Result.EmbedUrl
                );
            } catch (Exception ex) {
                Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);
            }
        }
    }
}

To assume the role, choose one of the following AWS Security Token Service (AWS STS) API operations:

The following example shows the CLI command to set the IAM role. The role needs to have permissions enabled for quicksight:GenerateEmbedUrlForAnonymousUser.

aws sts assume-role \
     --role-arn "arn:aws:iam::111122223333:role/embedding_quicksight_q_search_bar_role" \
     --role-session-name anonymous caller

The assume-role operation returns three output parameters: the access key, the secret key, and the session token.

The following example shows how to set these three parameters in the CLI. For a Microsoft Windows machine, use set instead of export.

export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID     = "access_key_from_assume_role"
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY = "secret_key_from_assume_role"
export AWS_SESSION_TOKEN     = "session_token_from_assume_role"

Running these commands sets the role session ID of the user visiting your website to embedding_quicksight_q_search_bar_role/QuickSightEmbeddingAnonymousPolicy. The role session ID is made up of the role name from role-arn and the role-session-name value. Using the unique role session ID for each user ensures that appropriate permissions are set for each user. It also prevents any throttling of user access. Throttling is a security feature that prevents the same user from accessing QuickSight from multiple locations. In addition, it keeps each session separate and distinct. If you're using an array of web servers, for example for load balancing, and a session is reconnected to a different server, a new session begins.

To get a signed URL for the dashboard, call generate-embed-url-for-anynymous-user from the app server. This returns the embeddable dashboard URL. The following example shows how to generate the URL for an embedded dashboard using a server-side call for users who are making anonymous visits to your web portal or app.

aws quicksight generate-embed-url-for-anonymous-user \
--aws-account-id 111122223333 \
--namespace default-or-something-else \
--authorized-resource-arns '["topic-arn-topicId1","topic-arn-topicId2"]' \
--allowed-domains '["domain1","domain2"]' \
--experience-configuration 'QSearchBar={InitialTopicId="topicId1"}' \
--session-tags '["Key": tag-key-1,"Value": tag-value-1,{"Key": tag-key-1,"Value": tag-value-1}]' \
--session-lifetime-in-minutes 15 

For more information about using this operation, see GenerateEmbedUrlForRegisteredUser. You can use this and other API operations in your own code.
