Using AWS Lake Formation with Quick

Quick supports exploring datasets managed by Lake Formation permissions in Amazon S3 using Athena.

Both Standard and Enterprise edition users of Quick integrate with Lake Formation, but slightly differently.

  • Enterprise edition – Grant fine-grained access control (FGAC) permissions to individual Quick users and groups to access databases and tables.

  • Standard edition – Grant permissions to IAM roles to access databases and tables.

Note

By default, Quick uses a role named aws-quicksight-service-role-v0. You can also define custom roles with required permissions that enable Quick to access Athena.
