Description
Tableau Product
The name of the Tableau product to which you want to connect.
You can choose one of the following Tableau products to publish the TDE or TWBX file:
  • Tableau Desktop. Creates a TDE file in the Data Integration Service machine. You can then manually import the TDE file to Tableau Desktop.
    Tableau Desktop is not applicable for TWBX file.
  • Tableau Server. Publishes the generated TDE or TWBX file to Tableau Server.
  • Tableau Online. Publishes the generated TDE or TWBX file to Tableau Online.
Connection URL
URL of Tableau Server or Tableau Online to which you want to publish the TDE or TWBX file. The URL has the following format:
http://<Host name of Tableau Server or Tableau Online>:<port>
User Name
User name of the Tableau Server or Tableau Online account.
Password
Password for the Tableau Server or Tableau Online account.
Content URL
The name of the site on Tableau Server or Tableau Online where you want to publish the TDE or TWBX file.
Contact the Tableau administrator to provide the site name.
Template File Path
The path to a sample TDE file from where the Integration Service imports the Tableau metadata.
Enter one of the following options for the template file path:
  • Absolute path to the TDE file.
  • Directory path for the TDE files.
  • Empty directory path.
The path you specify for the template file becomes the default path for the target TDE file. If you do not specify a file path, the Integration Service uses the following default file path for the target TDE file:
<Data Integration Installation Directory>/main/java/lib
