SQL Provisioning for Tableau

SYNC your SQL database security with Tableau Server security.

Use the SQL Provisioning Tool for Tableau Server to synchronize SQL based security information with Tableau Server security information. The tool uses a direct SQL connection to your SQL data source and allows you to enter in a SQL statement to query your security data. It then uses the Tableau REST API to create and synchronize the users and groups between the two sources. It's fast, fun, and it saves you time from building a custom integration application.


Configure, Schedule, Relax!

The tool provides a front end management console as well as an executable that you can place on the windows scheduler. Configure the link between the SQL Server and Tableau Server, test it out to confirm that everything is correct, then put it on the windows scheduler and it will sync everything automatically.
