AWS Certified Data Analytics – Specialty — Question 36

A data analyst is using Amazon QuickSight for data visualization across multiple datasets generated by applications. Each application stores files within a separate Amazon S3 bucket. AWS Glue Data Catalog is used as a central catalog across all application data in Amazon S3. A new application stores its data within a separate S3 bucket. After updating the catalog to include the new application data source, the data analyst created a new Amazon QuickSight data source from an Amazon Athena table, but the import into SPICE failed.
How should the data analyst resolve the issue?

Answer options

• A. Edit the permissions for the AWS Glue Data Catalog from within the Amazon QuickSight console.
• B. Edit the permissions for the new S3 bucket from within the Amazon QuickSight console.
• C. Edit the permissions for the AWS Glue Data Catalog from within the AWS Glue console.
• D. Edit the permissions for the new S3 bucket from within the S3 console.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because the issue with the SPICE import is likely related to insufficient permissions for the new S3 bucket where the application data is stored. Editing the permissions directly in the Amazon QuickSight console ensures that QuickSight has the necessary access to the data in the new S3 bucket. The other options focus on permissions for the AWS Glue Data Catalog or the wrong console, which would not resolve the access issue for the new S3 bucket.
