At QuickSight, we are excited to introduce Import Visuals, a powerful new productivity feature that allows authors to seamlessly import visuals from existing dashboards or analyses they have access to, into another analysis, streamlining the dashboard and report creation process and enhancing collaboration. The Import Visuals functionality identifies and brings over all associated dependencies, such as datasets, parameters, calculated fields, filter definitions, and visual properties, including conditional formatting rules from a source dashboard. At the destination, the feature resolves conflicts, eliminates duplicates, rescopes filter definitions, and adjusts the visuals to match different sheet types and layouts while respecting the destination theme. Imported visuals are forked from the source, meaning they are no longer linked to the original.

We’re excited to introduce font customization in QuickSight, a feature that significantly enhances dashboard clarity, engagement, and accessibility. With this new capability, authors gain precise control over typography for each specific visual property. You can set font sizes in pixels, choose colors and font families, and apply styles such as bold, italic, and underline.

We are excited to announce the addition of the new image component to QuickSight, allowing authors to upload images directly from your desktops, providing greater flexibility to incorporate static images into your QuickSight dashboards, analysis, reports, and stories. This is in addition to the current capability of adding images to text boxes, insights, and custom visual content, requiring a source URL.
