I am trying to schedule a workflow, which involves reading the data from a live Tableau server. I tried searching with different nodes included in Tableau integration extension but however cannot come up with anything.
IS there any way I can read data from Tableau in Knime?
A common use-case is to perform final visualizations into Tableau for finishing touches or due to existing pipelines.
For that, we have our Tableau Integration you already pointed out (and a guide available here).
If you would like to look into further programmatic access to Tableau, you can checkout Tableau’s REST API. We have REST nodes to interact with any service offering a respective API.
Hope this helps!
Generally, we’re always super interested to find out more about cool use-cases for KNIME, so that we can provide better documentation or develop new features to easily automate them. To that extent, you’d be very welcome to share further details on what your goal is. Maybe other community members even had the same idea and have already built a workflow or can share ideas on the topic.
