Refresh Tableau Workbook

Refresh one or more Tableau workbook extracts from a Bolt schedule, so your dashboards reflect the latest data right after your dbt™ pipeline completes.

​

Prerequisites

• Tableau connected as a workspace integration, with credentials set as Bolt schedule environment variables:
  • TABLEAU_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN_NAME
  • TABLEAU_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET
  • TABLEAU_HOST
  • TABLEAU_SITE_NAME
  • TABLEAU_TIMEOUT (optional; request timeout in seconds, default 300)
• Credentials embedded in the data source (in Tableau, edit the data source, click Publish, and select Embed credentials).

​

Usage

Add the Refresh Tableau Workbook command to your schedule, then choose how to Identify workbook by:

• Name or UUID — enter the workbook name or its UUID. Use the UUID when names are not unique; list workbooks and their UUIDs with the CLI.
• Project path + Name — enter the full Tableau project path (for example, Explore/Samples/TestNested/Nested2) plus the workbook name to fully qualify it.

Then click Add command.
