What authentication does Tableau use?

Tableau uses Personal Access Tokens (PATs). Generate one in My Account Settings > Personal Access Tokens. You'll need the token name and token secret.

Can I get dashboard data through the agent?

Yes. The get_view_data tool retrieves the underlying data of any view/dashboard in CSV or JSON format.

Does it work with both Tableau Cloud and Server?

Yes. Set your server URL to either your Tableau Cloud pod (e.g. https://10ay.online.tableau.com) or your on-premise server URL.
