> Learn how to enable embedded Atlan metadata in Tableau dashboards for seamless data context and governance.

# Enable embedded metadata in Tableau

By default, the browser extension shows Atlan metadata in a sidebar. With embedded metadata enabled, Atlan context appears directly overlaid on your Tableau dashboards—giving users immediate access to descriptions, lineage, and governance information without opening a separate panel.

## Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have:

- The Atlan browser extension installed and configured. If not, see [Install and set up browser extension](https://docs.atlan.com/llms/governance/integrations/install-and-set-up-the-browser-extension/llms.txt).
- The **Admin** role in Atlan.
- Access to **Labs** in your Atlan workspace.

## Enable embedded metadata in Tableau

To enable the embedded metadata experience for all users in your workspace:

1. In your Atlan workspace, click **Settings** from the left menu.

 If you are using the **Old UI (Classic)**, from the left menu, click **Admin**.

2. Click **Labs**.

3. Under _Access Control_, turn on **View embedded metadata in Tableau**.

Once enabled, users with the browser extension installed see Atlan metadata overlaid directly in their Tableau dashboards.
