# Tableau

Integrate, catalog, and govern Tableau assets in Atlan.

## Required permissions

- [Preflight checks for Tableau](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/tableau/preflight-checks-for-tableau/llms.txt): The Server Info REST API is used to fetch the `restApiVersion` value.

## Setup options

- [Set up Tableau](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/tableau/set-up-tableau/llms.txt): :::warning Who can do this? You probably need your Tableau administrator to run these commands - you may not have access yourself.
- [Choose how Atlan connects to Tableau](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/tableau/choose-how-atlan-connects-to-tableau/llms.txt): Compare the four ways Atlan can reach your Tableau environment - direct, direct with IP allowlisting, AWS PrivateLink, and the self-deployed agent.
- [Connect Tableau Cloud](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/tableau/connect-tableau-cloud/llms.txt): Connect Atlan to Tableau Cloud in four phases - service account and PAT, host and site, IP restrictions if enabled, configure and test.
- [Connect Tableau Server](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/tableau/connect-tableau-server/llms.txt): Connect Atlan to Tableau Server - everything from the Cloud guide plus the two Server-only steps, enabling the Metadata API and getting SSL certificates right.
- [Special cases](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/tableau/special-cases/llms.txt): Tableau special cases - AWS PrivateLink, fully on-premises servers, Server-to-Cloud migrations, multiple sites, and org changes that quietly break connections.
- [Set up on-premises Tableau access](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/tableau/set-up-on-premises-tableau-access/llms.txt): In some cases you may not be able to expose your Tableau instance for Atlan to crawl and ingest metadata. For example, this may happen when security requirements restrict access to sensitive, mission-critical data.
- [Set up a private network link to Tableau server](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/tableau/set-up-a-private-network-link-to-tableau-server/llms.txt): As a prerequisite for TLS configuration on Tableau Server only, ensure that the health check _Protocol_ of the target group is set to **HTTPS** or modify the health check settings as required.

## Crawl and mine

- [Crawl Tableau](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/tableau/crawl-tableau/llms.txt): Crawl metadata from Tableau to catalog workbooks, dashboards, sheets, and data sources. Extract lineage and usage information after configuring user permissions.
- [Crawl on-premises Tableau](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/connectors/tableau/crawl-on-premises-tableau/llms.txt): Extract metadata from on-premises Tableau to catalog workbooks, dashboards, and sheets. Discover and govern your BI assets after configuring extractor tool.
