Working with Tableau

Tableau is business intelligence software that helps people see and understand their data. Integrating Tableau in Collibra Data Intelligence Cloud enables you to see metadata from Tableau Server and Tableau Online in CollibraData Catalog.

In this section, we describe how you can ingest Tableau metadata in CollibraData Catalog and synchronize the metadata using the lineage harvester, a standalone Java application.

Important Please note the following important points regarding this integration method:

It is a cloud-only feature.
The new Tableau operating model is only available in Collibra versions 2021.10 and newer.
The two Tableau integration methods—Tableau integration via the Data Catalog and the new integration method via lineage harvester—coexist, and you are free to use the method of your choosing.
