Work with QuickSight Q topics using the Amazon QuickSight CLI

Use this section to learn how to work with QuickSight Q topics using the Amazon QuickSight command line interface (CLI).

Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure that you have an AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) role that grants the CLI user access to call the QuickSight API operations. The following table shows which permissions must be added to the IAM policy to use specific API operations. To use all of the Q topic API operations, add all of the permissions listed in the table.

The following example shows an IAM policy that allows a user to use the ListTopics API operation.
