Custom Instructions for Topics now generally available for Amazon Q in QuickSight

Today, AWS announces the general availability of Custom Instructions for Q&A topics in Amazon Q in QuickSight.

Custom Instructions enables Author Pros to curate Amazon Q's responses to questions by adding domain-specific knowledge that can’t be captured through a topic’s metadata settings, such as synonyms or semantic types. By providing these metadata descriptions or custom instructions, Authors can guide Amazon Q to align its responses with distinct definitions, preferences, and expert knowledge—ensuring more accurate, relevant, and tailored answers that are better suited for their business needs.

Custom Instructions are available to Amazon Q in QuickSight Pro Author and Pro Admin users in all supported regions.
