Prerequisites

  • A Tableau account with admin access

  • Ability to generate a Personal Access Token (PAT)

Setup

  1. Go to Viio → Integrations and choose Tableau.

  2. Generate a Personal Access Token in Tableau:

    • In Tableau, click your profile icon and go to My Account Settings.

    • Scroll to the Personal Access Tokens section.

    • Enter a token name and click Create new token.

    • Copy both the token and its name. You’ll need these shortly.

      For more help, see Tableau’s PAT documentation.

  3. In Viio, fill in the following details:

    • Server address (e.g., https://dub01.online.tableau.com)

    • Access token name

    • Access token

    • Site name (found in the URL after /#/site/, e.g., https://.../site/Viio/home → site name is Viio)

  4. Validate and confirm.

    • Click Validate to check your credentials.

    • Follow the on-screen steps to complete the integration.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

  • Invalid token? Make sure you copied the full token immediately after generating it, Tableau doesn’t show it again.

  • Incorrect site name or URL? Double-check the Tableau address and site segment of your URL.

  • Still not working? Reach out to Viio support for assistance.
