I am looking to retrieve a list of data sources, user information, workbooks, etc from Tableau. I am new to Tableau server so throwing the question out there.
Thanks,
Puff
Hi @stapuff, take a look at the SQL's mentioned in the following Tableau community post, and use them in Alteryx's Input tool to fetch the data inside Alteryx for further analysis.

Please mark this post as solution accepted if it answers your query
I appreciate the response back. I will take a look at it and let you know how I fair.
I appreciate you posting that link. Extremely useful documents.
I did not use this suggestion though. Just ended up build a Rest API workflow to produce the results I was looking for.
Again Thank You for your post,
I have the same requirement. Could you please share the workflow.

Sorry... just seeing this. Do you still need the example?
Hi I also need the workflow do you mind sharing? Here's mine but I got some 404 errors.

I am going to describe what works for me.
1) I created a user in Tableau and gave the user Admin rights.
2) I took the url of our Tableau site, username and password created in step 1 and placed it into the input tool marked with red line.
3) I then placed the url of our Tableau site and placed it in the formula tool marked with red line.
*Note - the formula tool marked with red line is where you can change what api is getting call/returned. Look at the tail end of the url getting called. I have mine hardcoded to /users?pageSize=1000 ,but this can be dynamic
Yes, I would be interested in an example thank you!
