Tableau developer tools

Use the Tableau Embedding API to integrate Tableau visualisations into your own web applications.

Programmatic access to work with your content, users, sites and more.

With our Dashboard Extensions API, developers can create dashboard extensions that enable customers to integrate and interact with functionality or data from other applications directly in Tableau.

Extend Tableau calculations to dynamically include popular data science programming languages, tools and platforms and create integrations similar to Tableau’s integrations with TabPy and MATLAB.

Subscribe to events in Tableau, then capture them in your app or trigger custom workflows.
