Some team members logged in to Quick Sight via the AWS console for the first time. I would like to give them the READER role, but they are marked as ADMINs as well. I couldn’t find out how to change this via “Manage Quick Sight”. How can I do this?

Hi ,

You cannot downgrade users from ADMIN to a READER . If these users have not created any assets in Quick Sight, you can delete those users and then recreate them as READER.
