Important changes for the Tableau JavaScript API

As of February 2024, the Tableau JavaScript API is deprecated. Use the Embedding API v3 instead for embedding interactive views into web pages and applications. For guidance on embedding Tableau views, see the Tableau Embedding API v3 Help(Link opens in a new window).

Export the current visualization. This sample show how you can export the visualization in different formats: as a PDF file, as an image file, as a CSV file, as an Excel file, or as a PowerPoint file. You can also open the Download dialog box to let the user choose.
