customPermissionsName

(Enterprise edition only) The name of the custom permissions profile that you want to assign to this user. Customized permissions allows you to control a user's access by restricting access the following operations:

  • Create and update data sources

  • Create and update datasets

  • Create and update email reports

  • Subscribe to email reports

A set of custom permissions includes any combination of these restrictions. Currently, you need to create the profile names for custom permission sets by using the Quick Sight console. Then, you use the RegisterUser API operation to assign the named set of permissions to a Quick Sight user.

Quick Sight custom permissions are applied through IAM policies. Therefore, they override the permissions typically granted by assigning Quick Sight users to one of the default security cohorts in Quick Sight (admin, author, reader).

This feature is available only to Quick Sight Enterprise edition subscriptions.
