How do i refresh csv data set in quicksight and not replace the data set as this loses my calcs

Tags:

I am looking to refresh a data set in quicksight, this is in Spice. The data set comes from a csv file that has been updated and now has more data than the original file I uploaded.

I can't seem to find a way to simply repoint to the same file with same format. I know how to replace the file but whenever i do this it states that it can't create some of my calculated fields and so drops multiple rows of data!

I assume I'm missing something obvious but I can't seem to find the right method or any help on the issue.

Thanks

Unfortunately, QuickSight doesn't support refreshing file data-sets to my knowledge. One solution, however, is to put your CSV in S3 and refresh from there.

The one gotcha with this approach is that you'll need to create a manifest file pointing to your CSV. This isn't too difficult and the QuickSight documentation is pretty helpful.
