Publish to Tableau server--- Append option

KNIME Extensions
1

Hi All,
I want to know if there is any way to append the new data to the data source which is published by Send to server (Tableau)node in knime.
I know there is an overwrite option but when we think of having the data of like 6- 12 months, overwriting it is a time-consuming process. So please let me know if there is a way to append the new data to the existing data source instead of overwriting it. Thank you!

Hi @Srikanth3 -

Right now appending is not supported. However, we are going to be reworking the Tableau nodes in the future to support the .hyper format, among other things. I will add your idea as a +1 feature request for the developers.
