Data & infrastructure · Tableau Credentials Token

Use Tableau in Okou

Use Tableau Cloud's REST API to read projects, workbooks, views, view summary data, data sources, and site users or groups.

Once connected, supported Tableau actions can become steps in a reusable workflow alongside the other services your team uses. Run the workflow once, on a schedule, or when an event starts it.

What you can do with Tableau

  • Read Tableau Cloud project, workbook, and view metadata for the connected site.
  • Read the summary CSV data for a view. This is read-only and may use Tableau Cloud concurrent long-running request capacity.
  • Read Tableau Cloud data source metadata and connection metadata for the connected site.
  • Read Tableau Cloud site users, groups, and their memberships.

How the Tableau connector works

A connected service becomes one permissioned step in the work you hand off.

  • Tableau Credentials Token

Connector access is controlled per service and per action, so a workflow does not need broader access than the work you ask it to do.
