Authorizations

Authorization

string

header

required

Organization API key (sl_…).

Headers

x-tenant-id

string

required

The organization ID the request is scoped to.

Body

application/json

A Tableau connection to add.

name

string

required

Display name for the connection, as shown throughout SELECT.

Minimum string length: 1

server_url

string

required

Base URL of the Tableau deployment to connect to, including the scheme and without a site path — for example https://us-east-1.online.tableau.com.

site_name

string

required

The site on that deployment to read. Use the site's URL name; pass Default for the default site of a Tableau Server deployment.

Minimum string length: 1

credentials

TableauCredentials · object

required

The personal access token SELECT authenticates with. Validated against Tableau before the connection is added.

Show child attributes

sync_enabled

boolean

default:true

Whether SELECT starts syncing data for this connection.

query_sanitization_enabled

boolean

default:false

Whether query text is sanitized before SELECT stores it.

Response

Successful Response

A connection to one Tableau site.

string

required

read-only

The unique identifier of the connection.

etag

string

required

read-only

Opaque strong ETag for this connection's configuration. Matches the ETag response header, and is what If-Match requires on a write. It changes whenever a configurable field on the connection changes.

name

string

required

Display name for the connection, as shown throughout SELECT.

connection_id

string

required

read-only

Identifier of the connection resource this Tableau connection belongs to (see GET /v2/connections/{connection_id}). Distinct from id, which identifies this Tableau connection specifically.

server_url

string

required

Base URL of the Tableau deployment SELECT connects to, without a site path — for example https://us-east-1.online.tableau.com.

site_name

string

required

The site on that deployment SELECT reads. This is the site's URL name, which is what Tableau signs in against; Default names the default site of a Tableau Server deployment.

site_luid

string

required

read-only

The identifier Tableau assigns the site, resolved when the connection is added. Unlike site_name it survives a rename, so it is what SELECT keys the site's data and access rules on.

sync_enabled

boolean

required

Whether SELECT is currently syncing data for this connection.

query_sanitization_enabled

boolean

required

Whether query text is sanitized before SELECT stores it.

create_time

string

required

read-only

When the connection was added.

update_time

string

required

read-only

When the connection was last changed.

added_by_email

string | null

Email address of the person who added the connection. Null when it was not added by a person.

last_successful_sync_time

string | null

When SELECT last completed a sync for this connection. Null before the first one succeeds.
