Tableau Server v1.6 Released - Offers Data Personalization and Easier, Secure Password Management

Good news for people who want to share analytics and collaborate with colleagues over the web. We've just released Tableau Server v1.6 which offers new capabilities regarding user-based filtering, and password and data source management. These enhancements make sharing business dashboards and collaborating a little easier for everyone - whether you're publishing workbooks and views, consuming those on the web or administering the server itself.

The latest release of Tableau Server delivers greater flexibility for deploying Tableau workbooks. New capabilities make it easier to manage database usernames and passwords and also make it possible to dynamically change the content of a single view depending on the individual looking at that view. I have to say - our development team really nailed that last feature. It's pretty easy to define who should see what - no need for a programmer and certainly no need to follow pages and page of instructions.

Tableau Server 1.6 works in conjunction with the enhanced capabilities of Tableau Professional 3.6.
