aws-quicksight: `rowLevelPermissionDataSet` deprecated without replacement

[miekassu]

Describe the bug

The rowLevelPermissionDataSet property on CfnDataSetProps is marked as deprecated, but there's no replacement documented and the CloudFormation docs don't show it as deprecated.

Regression Issue

• Select this option if this issue appears to be a regression.

Last Known Working CDK Library Version

2.179.0

Expected Behavior

Either provide a migration path to an alternative property, or don't mark it deprecated if CloudFormation still supports it.

Current Behavior

TypeScript shows deprecation warning when using rowLevelPermissionDataSet. No replacement is documented.

Reproduction Steps

import { CfnDataSet } from 'aws-cdk-lib/aws-quicksight'

const dataSet = new CfnDataSet(this, 'DataSet', { /* ... */ })

// IDE shows: 'rowLevelPermissionDataSet' is deprecated
dataSet.rowLevelPermissionDataSet = {
  arn: 'arn:aws:quicksight:...',
  formatVersion: 'VERSION_1',
  status: 'ENABLED',
  permissionPolicy: 'GRANT_ACCESS',
}

Possible Solution

If the property is intentionally deprecated, document the replacement. If not, remove the deprecation marker.

Additional Information/Context

• CloudFormation docs still show RowLevelPermissionDataSet as valid: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/aws-properties-quicksight-dataset-rowlevelpermissiondataset.html
• The nested RowLevelPermissionDataSetProperty interface is NOT deprecated, only the property on CfnDataSetProps

Hi @miekassu,

Thank you for reporting this issue with detailed version information.

After investigation, I can confirm this appears to be a valid concern. The deprecation marker originates from the CloudFormation Registry Schema which explicitly lists RowLevelPermissionDataSet in its deprecatedProperties array:

"deprecatedProperties" : [ 
  "/properties/LogicalTableMap", 
  "/properties/RowLevelPermissionDataSet", 
  "/properties/RowLevelPermissionTagConfiguration" 
]

The CDK correctly imports this deprecation through the import-cloudformation-registry.ts importer in the awscdk-service-spec repository.

However, you've identified an inconsistency:

• The CloudFormation documentation doesn't mark this property as deprecated
• No replacement property is documented
• The RowLevelPermissionDataSetProperty type interface is not deprecated, only the property itself

This suggests the deprecation may have been added to the CloudFormation schema without corresponding documentation updates or migration guidance.

Next Steps:

1. We'll escalate this to the AWS QuickSight CloudFormation team to clarify the deprecation status
2. If confirmed as an error, the schema will need to be updated upstream
3. If the deprecation is intentional, documentation should be updated with migration guidance

I'll follow up after the holidays.

In the meantime, the property should still function correctly - the deprecation warning is informational only.

Thank you for helping improve the CDK!
