Passing Project and Data Source Name to Tableau Publish Tool

Jon-Knepper

Hello community!  I was wondering if anyone has had success with being able to update the Tableau publish tool so that the Project and Data source name could be passed to it via a workflow. 

 

The reason I am wanting this is that each year we archive our tableau data sources so that are business users can look at the data at that point in time.  This forces us to go into each workflow and update the tableau publish tool so that a new data source can be created.  I thought about diving into the macro and making the changes myself, but thought I would ask and see if anyone else has already taken an shot and had any issues.

 

Thank you!

Were you able to find a solution to this? We are starting to publish end of year data sources, as well, and I'd like to not have to edit the workflow every year to accommodate the new year iteration.
