The company that I work for looking at potentially using Amazon Quicksight as a BI platform to show insights on some of our data. While I know that Quicksight allows you to embed dashboards and customize their data through the use of parameters and drill downs, can you access/export the rendered data via the Javascript SDK?

For instance, if a user wanted to filter down the list of people within the dashboard, would I have the ability to access that dataset and then perform an action upon it; like send an email?

Yes, you can get data from the Amazon QuickSight SDK.

Review the API reference guide to understand the actions you can take using the SDK. Based on your question, you may want to review DescribeAnalysis (link) which responds with: A metadata structure that contains summary information for the analysis that you're describing.

Quicksight provides functionality to download data from the visuals in dashboards. It can be downloaded in csv / excel format.

Also, you can take a print of your dashboard.
