Hello, my name is Duncan. I'm a data engineer with West Loop Strategy, an AWS partner. Today for our AWS analytics expert series I'm going to be talking about how to add custom content into your QuickSite dashboards.

Customizability is one of the main reasons that our team we went all in on QuickSight. Something that we love being able to provide to our clients is the ability to bring in custom content onto their dashboards. So what's even better is that the team that made QuickSite over at AWS has made this really simple.

To show this, let's say I want to embed a part of my website or my logo directly into my dashboard. All I need to do is add a new visual. I'm going to choose the custom content visual. I'm going to need a URL to do this. So I'm going to go to my desired URL, whether it's my website or an image from the internet that has my logo, and I'm going to go and paste that into the section called URL on my visual properties menu. Now, I have custom content embedded directly into my dashboard.

This is a great way to bring new and exciting elements into any dashboard. And between us and our clients, we really appreciate how simple this is.

Thanks for joining me today. To find out more about how we help our clients use AWS Cloud Technology or to schedule your own QuickSight training session with us, visit our website or follow us on LinkedIn. Thank you.

However, for larger enterprises with complex systems, the migration process could extend over several months or even years.It's essential to thoroughly plan and execute the migration, considering factors like data transfer, application refactoring, testing, and training.
