Download Tableau Dashboard data using Alteryx

Hi Team,

Good Day.

I have tableau dashboard with text table sheet only. I want to download the data from the tableau dashboard. 

In Tableau we use .csv or .xls  extension at the end of the URL link to download data. 

 

Now I want alteryx to connect to the link and download :

Example Random dashboard link

Note : in my case I have to use my org tableau dashboard. 

 

Please guide. Thanks in advance.

Hi @Nirmalkumar ,

 

To clarify, you would like to attempt to connect to a dashboard from your organisation's Tableau Server & download the underlying data extract into Alteryx, am I correct? If that's the case, you may try the Open from Tableau Server.yxi installer attached here (here's the Full GitHub documentation on how the connector works: https://github.com/scallybrian/OpenFromTableauServer).

 

If you are just attempting to connect to a Tableau Hyper Data Extract (.hyper) file stored locally into Alteryx, note that as of version 2019.4, you are able to do so natively via the Input Data Tool's Data Connections pane (see screenshot below):

Hope this clarifies!

 

Best,

Michael
