Publish to Tableau - Connection Issues

dlund2010

Hi all, I have a query I am pulling from a SQL Server DB and trying to push into Tableau. I am using a personal token to connect to Tableau, and I am successfully connected in the left pane.

 

However, when I run the workflow, I get the error "Connection to platform was not successful".

 

Any insights?

if you are using more than one Tableau Output tool,

you should create a separate token for each one, with the appropriate keys.

it seems the macros get conflicted if you session uses the same token

 

it is simple to create multiple tokens, just keep them straight

 

I struggled with this for a very long time, but that solved it.

Nothing to do with access etc.

I even tried timing the output with StopUntilDone and eventually control containers, to no avail.

 

good luck/
