My company uses Tableau for visualization, and I want to produce an automatically-updating dashboard based on my output from Trifacta. It looks like I can only produce a CSV. Is there a way to publish directly into my company's Tableau Server and make the data update every month?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Yes! I actually just set this up on my instance of Trifacta. You will need to create a new connection that points to your Tableau server (of course, you should check with your IT department to make sure that your Trifacta server can communicate with your Tableau server, otherwise nothing will work 😞 ).
Here's what I did to make the connection:
Now, whenever I run a job in Trifacta and create a "TDE" output, I can make that output go into my Tableau server! It's saved me so much manual effort it's crazy.
LOL. You're right--I did need to ask my admin to open the port between Trifacta and Tableau. But once she did that for me, your instructions worked perfectly.
@Connor Carreras? Is this still true? I know this post was from 4 years ago however I am having the same problem and don't have a solution
