Add User to Site

Adds a user to Tableau Server or Tableau and assigns the user to the specified site.

Tableau Server

If Tableau Server is configured to use local authentication, the information you specify is used to create a new user in Tableau Server.

Note: After creating the user, you must set a full name, password, and email address for the user with the call to Update User. If you are using SAML with local authentication, the user information that you add is not synchronized with the SAML IdP, as it would be if you were using Active Directory. Even if it is not used by SAML, the user information must be present.

If Tableau Server is configured to use Active Directory for authentication, the user you specify is imported from Active Directory into Tableau Server.

Tableau Cloud

When you add a user to Tableau Cloud, the name of the user must be the email address that is used to sign in to Tableau Cloud. After you add a user, Tableau Cloud sends the user an email invitation. The user can click the link in the invitation to sign in and update their full name and password.

If you try to add a user using a specific site role but you have already reached the limit on the number of licenses for your users, the user is added as an unlicensed user. In that case, the response code is 201 (which indicates success), but the siteRole value in the response body is set to Unlicensed.

Note: After you create a resource, the server updates its search index. If you make a query immediately to see a new resource, the query results might not be up to date.

URI

POST /api/api-version/sites/site-id/users

Parameter Values

api-version	The version of the API to use, such as `3.24`. For more information, see REST API and Resource Versions.
site-id	The ID of the site to add users to.

Request Body

(Use the icon in the top right corner to copy the text.)

<tsRequest>
  <user name="user-name"
        siteRole="site-role"
        authSetting="auth-setting"
		identityPoolName="identity-pool-name"
		idpConfigurationId="idp-configuration-id" />
</tsRequest>

(Use the icon in the top right corner to copy the text.)

{
	"user": {
	   "name":"user-name",
	   "siteRole":"site-role",
	   "authSetting":"auth-setting",
	   "identityPoolName":"identity-pool-name",
	   "idpConfigurationId":"idp-configuration-id"
	 }
}

Attribute Values

user-name	The name of the user. If the server uses local authentication, this can be any name. If you are using Active Directory authentication, or if you are using Tableau Cloud, there are specific requirements for the name. Tableau Server If Tableau Server uses Active Directory authentication, this must be the name of an existing user in Active Directory. If the user name is not unique across domains, you must include the domain as part of the user name (for example, example\Adam or adam@example.com). Note: Active Directory specifies a user name using two attributes: `sAMAccountName` and `userPrincipalName` (UPN) prefix. For most Active Directory users, these attributes are the same. By default, if you are adding a user from Active Directory, the name that you provide in the user-name is matched against the Active Directory `sAMAccountName` attribute, which becomes the name that the user signs in to Tableau Server with. Two exceptions are when the name that you provide: is longer than 20 characters; and includes an `@` character. In these cases, Tableau imports the user using the Active Directory UPN. For more information, see User Naming Attributes(Link opens in a new window) on the MSDN site. Tableau Cloud The user-name is the email address that the user will use to sign in to Tableau Cloud. When you add a user to the site, Tableau Cloud sends an email invitation. The user can click the link in the invitation to sign in and update their full name and password.
site-role	The site role to assign to the user. You can assign the following roles: Creator, Explorer, ExplorerCanPublish, SiteAdministratorExplorer, SiteAdministratorCreator, Unlicensed, or Viewer. Note: You cannot use the REST API to set a user to be a server administrator (ServerAdministrator site role).
auth-setting	(Optional) The authentication type for the user. Important: For Tableau Server, the authSetting attribute only applies when adding users to sites with site-specific SAML enabled settings. For Tableau Cloud, starting in API 3.24, multiple authentication configurations can be created and enabled. Therefore, use authSetting attribute to assign user authentication if only one authentication configuration exists on your site. If working with multiple authentication configurations on a site, use the idpConfigurationId attribute instead to assign user authentication. See idp-configuration-id. You can assign the following values for this attribute: `SAML` - The user signs in using the identity provider (IdP) configured for the site. For Tableau Cloud configuration, see Enable SAML Authentication on a Site(Link opens in a new window). For Tableau Server, see Configure Site-Specific SAML(Link opens in a new window). `OpenID` - Tableau Cloud only the user signs in using Google, Salesforce, or their OpenID Connect provider credentials. In Tableau Cloud authentication settings, `OpenID` corresponds to Google, Salesforce, or OIDC configuration. `TableauIDWithMFA` - Tableau Cloud only: The user signs in using a combination of TableauID credentials and a registered verification method. For more information, see About multi-factor authentication and Tableau Cloud(Link opens in a new window). `ServerDefault` - The user signs in using the default authentication method that's set for the server. For Tableau Cloud, if Tableau hasn't updated your site to require Tableau with MFA yet, you can continue to use this authentication type on a temporary basis. The `ServerDefault` value corresponds to TableauID in authentication settings. For Tableau Server, the SAML(Link opens in a new window) Server help page describes default authentication options.
identity-pool-name	(Optional, Tableau Server only) When identity pools are configured, the name of the identity pool. Starting in API 3.19, include the identity pool name when identity pools are configured and you need to add a user to an identity pool that uses the local identity store and OIDC authentication. For more information, see Identity Pools Methods.
idp-configuration-id	(Optional, Tableau Cloud only) Starting in API 3.24, multiple authentication configurations can be created and enabled at the same time. Include the idpConfigurationId to assign a specific authentication to a user. Include the idpConfigurationId attribute instead of the authSetting attribute to assign a specific authentication to a user, but not both. If idpConfigurationId or authSetting is not specified, then `TableauIdWithMFA` (or in some cases `ServerDefault` if that option is still available for your site) is the authentication assigned to the user. To find the idpConfigurationId value, use the List Authentication Configurations method. For more information, see Authentication(Link opens in a new window) in the Tableau Cloud Help.

Permissions

This method can only be called by server administrators and site administrators.

Create Group

Creates a group on Tableau Server or Tableau Cloud site.

If Tableau Server is configured to use Active Directory for authentication, this method can create a group and then import users from an Active Directory group.

Note: After you create a resource, the server updates its search index. If you make a query immediately to see a new resource, the query results might not be up to date.

To add users to a group, call Add User To Group. To make changes to an existing group, call Update Group.

For Tableau Server, if you use the method to import users from an Active Directory, the import process can be performed immediately (synchronously) or as a background job (asynchronously).

Note: If Active Directory contains a large number of users, you should import them asynchronously; otherwise, the process can time out.

The Create Group response returns information in two ways: in the response header and in the response body. The ID of the new group is always returned as the value of the Location header. If you create a local group or import an Active Directory group (Tableau Server only) immediately, the response body contains the name and ID of the new group. If you import an Active Directory group (Tableau Server only) using a background process, the response body contains a <job> element that includes a job ID. You can use the job ID to check the status of the operation by calling Query Job.

URI

POST /api/api-version/sites/site-id/groups

POST /api/api-version/sites/site-id/groups?asJob=asJob-value

Parameter Values

api-version The version of the API to use, such as 3.24. For more information, see REST API and Resource Versions.

site-id The ID of the site to create the group in.

asJob-value

A Boolean value that is used if you are importing from Active Directory. If you set this to false (the default), the import process runs as a synchronous process. If the Active Directory group contains many users, the process might time out before it finishes.

If you set this to true, the process runs asynchronously. In that case, Tableau Server starts a job to perform the import and returns the job ID in the Location header. You can check the status of the import job by calling Query Job.

Note: This parameter has no effect if the server is configured to use local authentication.

This attribute is available for Tableau Server only.

Request Body

Creating a local group

<tsRequest>
  <group name="new-tableau-server-group-name"
   minimumSiteRole="minimum-site-role"
   ephemeralUsersEnabled="on-demand-access"/>
</tsRequest>

When the request is to create a local group and minimumSiteRole is specified, users are granted a license using the grant license on-login mode by default.

Importing a group from Active Directory (Tableau Server only)

<tsRequest>
  <group name="active-directory-group-name" >
    <import source="ActiveDirectory"
      domainName="active-directory-domain-name"
      grantLicenseMode="license-mode"
      siteRole="minimum-site-role"/>
  </group>
</tsRequest>

When the request is to create a group with grantLicenseMode, a siteRole value should also be supplied.

When the request body contains an <import> element, a Tableau Server configured to authenticate via Active Directory will create the group and modify the set of users in the group to be the same as those in Active Directory. The source attribute of the <import> element must be set to ActiveDirectory. If Tableau Server or Tableau Cloud site is configured to use local authentication, including an <import> element has no effect.

Note: When a group is created by importing from Active Directory, Tableau Server uses the value of the Active Directory sAMAccountName attribute as the user name.

Attribute Values

new-tableau-server-group-name	The name for the new group.
active-directory-group-name	The name of the Active Directory group to import. This attribute is available for Tableau Server only.
active-directory-domain-name	The domain of the Active Directory group to import. This attribute is available for Tableau Server only.
minimum-site-role	Required if an import element or grantLicenseMode attribute are present in the request. For Tableau Server, the site role assigned to users who are imported from Active Directory or granted a license automatically using the grant license on-sync or on-login mode. If the requested user name matches an existing user in the group, the user either retains their existing role or are granted the one specified in the request, based on the role that enables the most capabilities. This is true whether the group the user belongs to is imported from Active Directory (Tableau Server only) or local. Site roles that can be assigned, listed from the one enabling the least capabilities to the most, are as follows. Unlicensed Viewer Explorer ExplorerCanPublish Creator SiteAdministratorExplorer SiteAdministratorCreator Note: You cannot use the REST API to set a user to be a Tableau Server administrator (ServerAdministrator site role).
license-mode	The mode for automatically applying licenses for group members. When the mode is onLogin, a license is granted for each group member when they log in to a site. For local groups, the mode can be either onLogin or unset. If the attribute is omitted, the default mode is unset, which results in no licenses being granted automatically to group members. For groups that import an Active Directory domain, the mode can be either onSync or onLogin. The minimum role granted to users through grantLicenseMode is specified in the siteRole attribute. If that role has less permissions than an existing role assigned to the user, then the user's permissions remain unchanged.
on-demand-access	Optional. A boolean value that is used to enable on-demand access for embedded Tableau content when the Tableau Cloud site is licensed with Embedded Analytics(Link opens in a new window) usage-based model. Set to true to enable the capability for the group or set to false to disable the capability for the group. For more information about on-demand access, see one of the following topics in the Tableau Cloud Help: On-demand access using connected apps with direct trust(Link opens in a new window) or On-demand access using connected apps with OAuth 2.0 trust(Link opens in a new window). This attribute is available for Tableau Cloud only starting from API version 3.21 (October 2023).

Import Users to Site from CSV

Creates a job to import the users listed in a specified .csv file to a site, and assign their roles and authorization settings.

The .csv file should comply with the rules described in one of the following topics:

For Tableau Cloud - CSV Import File Guidelines(Link opens in a new window)
For Tableau Server - CSV Import File Guidelines(Link opens in a new window)

URI

POST api/api-version/sites/site-id/users/import

Parameter Values

api-version	The version of the API to use, such as `3.24`. For more information, see REST API and Resource Versions.
site-id	The unique ID of the site asset.

Request Body

--boundary-string
Content-Disposition: name="tableau_user_import"
Content-Type: file
path_to_csv
--boundary-string
Content-Disposition: name="request_payload"
Content-Type: text/xml
<tsRequest>
  <user
    name="user-name"
	authSetting="auth-setting"
	idpConfigurationId="idp-configuraion-id" />
  <!--    more users    -->
</tsRequest>
--boundary-string--

A request-payload without user name or authSetting is valid, but must be present in the request in the form: <tsRequest><user /></tsRequest>.

Attribute Values

path-to-csv	The file path to the .csv list users to be imported.
user-name	(Optional) The name of the user. If the server uses local authentication, this can be any name. If you are using Active Directory authentication, or if you are using Tableau Cloud, there are specific requirements for the name. For Tableau Server: If Tableau Server uses Active Directory authentication, this must be the name of an existing user in Active Directory. If the user name is not unique across domains, you must include the domain as part of the user name (for example, example\Adam or adam@example.com). Note: Active Directory specifies a user name using two attributes: `sAMAccountName` and `userPrincipalName` (UPN) prefix. For most Active Directory users, these attributes are the same. By default, if you are adding a user from Active Directory, the name that you provide in the user-name is matched against the Active Directory `sAMAccountName` attribute, which becomes the name that the user signs in to Tableau Server with. Two exceptions are when the name that you provide: is longer than 20 characters; and includes an `@` character. In these cases, Tableau imports the user using the Active Directory UPN. For more information, see User Naming Attributes(Link opens in a new window) on the MSDN site. For Tableau Cloud: The user-name is the email address that the user will use to sign in to Tableau Cloud. When you add a user to the site, Tableau Cloud sends an email invitation. The user can click the link in the invitation to sign in and update their full name and password.
auth-setting	(Optional) The authentication type for the user. Important: For Tableau Server, the authSetting attribute only applies when adding users to sites with site-specific SAML enabled settings. For Tableau Cloud, starting in API 3.24, multiple authentication configurations can be created and enabled. Therefore, use authSetting attribute to assign user authentication if only one authentication configuration exists on your site. If working with multiple authentication configurations on a site, use the idpConfigurationId attribute instead to assign user authentication. See idp-configuration-id. You can assign the following values for this attribute: `SAML` - The user signs in using the identity provider (IdP) configured for the site. For Tableau Cloud configuration, see Enable SAML Authentication on a Site(Link opens in a new window). For Tableau Server, see Configure Site-Specific SAML(Link opens in a new window). `ServerDefault` - The user signs in using the default authentication method that's set for the server. For Tableau Cloud ServerDefault corresponds to TableauID in authentication settings. For Tableau Server, the SAML(Link opens in a new window) Server help page describes default authentication options. `OpenID` - Tableau Cloud only The user signs in using Google, Salesforce, or their OpenID Connect provider credentials. In Tableau Cloud authentication settings, `OpenID` corresponds to Google, Salesforce, or OIDC configuration. `TableauIDWithMFA` - Tableau Cloud only: The user signs in using a combination of Tableau ID credentials and a registered verification method. For more information, see About multi-factor authentication and Tableau Cloud(Link opens in a new window). Assigning user auth settings with this method The request payload enables you to set auth settings for individual users, or all users in the .csv file. To prevent the payload from having any impact on auth settings, omit the `name` and `authSetting` attributes of the `user` object: `<tsrequest><user /></tsrequest>`. To set the default auth settings for all users being imported, omit the `name` attribute and specify the `authSetting` attribute of the `user` object: `<tsRequest><user authSetting="OpenID"/><tsRequest>` If the auth setting for a user is defined in both the imported .csv and in a request payload, the setting in the .csv will take precedence. If no auth setting is defined for a user in either the .csv and the request payload, then the default setting of the site is assigned.
idp-configuration-id	(Optional, Tableau Cloud only) Starting in API 3.24, multiple authentication configurations can be created and enabled at the same time. Include the idpConfigurationId to assign a specific authentication to a user. Include the idpConfigurationId attribute instead of the authSetting attribute to assign a specific authentication to a user, but not both. If idpConfigurationId or authSetting is not specified, then `TableauIdWithMFA` (or in some cases `ServerDefault` if that option is still available for your site) is the authentication assigned to the user. To find the idpConfigurationId value, use the List Authentication Configurations method. For more information, see Authentication(Link opens in a new window) in the Tableau Cloud Help.
isVerbose	Tableau Cloud only When set to `false`, this method only returns the top three errors in a batch of users. When set to `true`, the method displays a full list of errors during CSV upload. Available in REST API 3.22 (Tableau Cloud February 2024)

Remove User from Site

Removes a user from the specified site. The user will be deleted if they do not own any other assets other than subscriptions. If a user still owns content (assets) on Tableau Server, the user cannot be deleted unless the ownership is reassigned first.

You can’t remove a user from the server if they own content on any site on that server. You can remove a user from a site if they no longer own content on the site.

If a user is removed from all sites that the user is a member of, the user is deleted.

URI

DELETE /api/api-version/sites/site-id/users/user-id

DELETE /api/api-version/sites/site-id/users/user-id?mapAssetsTo=new-user-id

Parameter Values

api-version	The version of the API to use, such as `3.24`. For more information, see REST API and Resource Versions.
site-id	The ID of the site that contains the user.
user-id	The ID of the user to remove.
mapAssetsTo	Optional. When included in the URI path, the contents owned by the user being removed are transferred to another user. If the user owns subscriptions and no mapAssetsTo is provided, the value of the owner is changed to unknown user. If a user owns only subscriptions, you can delete them from either server or site without having to set mapAssetsTo a different user. If a user owns only subscriptions, you can delete the user from the server or site without setting this value. Note: Even though both server administrators and site administrators can call this method, only server administrators can use the mapAssetsTo parameter to reassign content ownership. Site administrators can't use this parameter value. You must be a server administrator to remove a user who still owns content on Tableau Server.
new-user-id	The ID of a user that receives ownership of contents of the user being remove.

Update Group

Updates a group on a Tableau Server or Tableau Cloud site.

If Tableau Server or Tableau Cloud site is configured to use local authentication, the method lets you update the group name. If Tableau Server is configured to use Active Directory authentication, the method synchronizes the group with Active Directory.

During synchronization, the method updates the group and modifies the set of users in the group to be the same as those in Active Directory. Users in Active Directory that are not in the group on Tableau Server are added to the group, and users that are not in the Active Directory group are removed from the group. Users that are no longer in Active Directory at all are unlicensed.

If the update synchronizes with Active Directory, Tableau Server can perform the update either immediately (synchronously) or by using a background job (asynchronously). If Active Directory contains a large number of users, you should perform the synchronization process as a background job so that the process doesn't time out. By default, synchronizing with Active Directory is performed immediately (synchronously).

URI

PUT /api/api-version/sites/site-id/groups/group-id

PUT /api/api-version/sites/site-id/groups/group-id?asJob=asJob-value

Parameter Values

api-version	The version of the API to use, such as `3.24`. For more information, see REST API and Resource Versions.
site-id	The ID of the site that contains the group.
group-id	The ID of the group to update.
AsJob-value	A Boolean value that is used if you are importing from Active Directory. Set this value to true to synchronize with Active Directory as a background task, or set this value to false to synchronize immediately (synchronously). The default is false. Note: This parameter has no effect if the server is configured to use local authentication. This attribute is available for Tableau Server only.

Request Body

Updating a local group

<tsRequest>
  <group name="new-group-name"
    minimumSiteRole="minimum-site-role"
    ephemeralUsersEnabled="on-demand-access" />
</tsRequest>

When the request is to update a local group and minimumSiteRole is specified, users are granted a license using the grant license on-login mode by default.

Updating an Active Directory group (Tableau Server only)

<tsRequest>
  <group name="AD-group-name">
    <import source="ActiveDirectory" domainName="AD-domain"
      siteRole="minimum-site-role"
      grantLicenseMode="license-mode" />
  </group>
</tsRequest>

When the request body contains an <import> element, and if Tableau Server or Tableau Cloud site is configured to authenticate via Active Directory, the Update Group method synchronizes with Active Directory. If Tableau Server is configured to use local authentication, including an <import> element has no effect.

Attribute Values

new-group-name	The new name for the group.
AD-group-name	The name of the Active Directory group to synchronize with. This attribute is available for Tableau Server only.
AD-domain	The domain for the Active Directory group. This attribute is available for Tableau Server only.
minimum-site-role	Required if an import element or grantLicenseMode attribute are present in the request. The site role assigned to users who are imported from Active Directory (Tableau Server only) or granted a license automatically using the grant license on-sync or on-login mode. If the requested user name matches an existing user in the group, the user either retains their existing role or are granted the one specified in the request, based on the role that enables the most capabilities. This is true whether the group the user belongs to is imported from Active Directory (Tableau Server only) or local. Site roles that can be assigned, listed from the one enabling the least capabilities to the most, are as follows. Unlicensed Viewer Explorer ExplorerCanPublish Creator SiteAdministratorExplorer SiteAdministratorCreator Note: You cannot use the REST API to set a user to be a Tableau Server administrator (ServerAdministrator site role).
license-mode	Optional. The mode for automatically applying licenses for group members. When the mode is onLogin, a license is granted for each group member when they log in to a site. For local groups, the mode can be either onLogin or unset. If the attribute is omitted during an update, the group will use the license grant mode configured prior to the update. A local group configured to use onLogin can switch the mode to unset by updating the group using: `minimumSiteRole="UNLICENSED"` For groups that import an Active Directory domain (Tableau Server only), the grantLicenseMode can be updated to either onSync or onLogin. If the attribute is omitted during an update, the group will use the license grant mode configured prior to the update. The minimum role granted to users through grantLicenseMode is specified in the siteRole attribute of the import element. If that role has less permissions than an existing role assigned to the user, then the user's permissions remain unchanged.
on-demand-access	Optional. A boolean value that is used to enable on-demand access for embedded Tableau content when the Tableau Cloud site is licensed with Embedded Analytics(Link opens in a new window) usage-based model. Set to true to enable the capability for the group or set to false to disable the capability for the group. For more information about on-demand access, see one of the following topics in the Tableau Cloud Help: On-demand access using connected apps with direct trust(Link opens in a new window) or On-demand access using connected apps with OAuth 2.0 trust(Link opens in a new window). This attribute is available for Tableau Cloud only starting from API version 3.21 (October 2023).

  <group id="new-group-id"
	name="group-name"
	ephemeralUsersEnabled="true"
	minimumSiteRole="minimum-site-role">
         <import domainName="local" siteRole="default-site-role" grantLicenseMode="license-mode"/>
</tsResponse>

Updating an Active Directory group (Tableau Server only):

<tsResponse>
  <group id="new-group-id"
	name="group-name">
 	  <import domainName="active-directory-domain-name”
           grantLicenseMode="license-mode"
	    minimumSiteRole="default-site-role" />
  </group>
</tsResponse>

Background update:

<tsResponse>
  <job id="job-id"
    mode="Asynchronous"
    type="GroupSync"
    progress="0"
    createdAt="time-job-created" />
</tsResponse>

If the operation is performed asynchronously, the response body contains a <job> element that includes a job ID. You can check the status of the operation by using the Query Job method, which returns status information about the job. A typical approach is to periodically call Query Job method and get the value of the progress attribute from the response body; when this value returns 100, the import process is complete.

Update User

Modifies information about the specified user.

Tableau Server

If Tableau Server is configured to use local authentication, you can update the user's name, email address, password, or site role.

If Tableau Server is configured to use Active Directory for authentication, you can change the user's display name (full name), email address, and site role. However, if you synchronize the user with Active Directory, the display name and email address will be overwritten with the information that's in Active Directory.

Tableau Cloud

For Tableau Cloud, you can update the site role for a user, but you cannot update or change a user's password, user name (email address), or full name.

URI

PUT /api/api-version/sites/site-id/users/user-id

Parameter Values

api-version	The version of the API to use, such as `3.24`. For more information, see REST API and Resource Versions.
site-id	The ID of the site that contains the user.
user-id	The ID of the user to update.

Request Body

<tsRequest>
 <user fullName="new-full-name"
    email="new-email"
    password="new-password"
    siteRole="new-site-role"
    authSetting="new-auth-setting"

	   "authSetting":"new-auth-setting",
	   "identityPoolName":"identity-pool-name",
	   "idpConfigurationId":"idp-configuration-id"
	 }
}

Attribute Values

Any combination of the elements inside the <user> element is valid. Only those elements present will result in updates to their values for the user. If no elements are present, the update will not take effect.

new-full-name	(Optional) The new name for the user. Users can change names without affecting the groups they belong to. Tableau Server only. Not available in Tableau Cloud.
new-email	(Optional) The new email address for the user. Tableau Server only. Not available in Tableau Cloud.
new-password	(Optional) The new password for the user. Tableau Server only. Not available in Tableau Cloud.
new-site-role	The new site role to assign to the user. You can assign the following roles: Creator, Explorer, ExplorerCanPublish, ServerAdministrator, SiteAdministratorExplorer, SiteAdministratorCreator, Unlicensed, or Viewer. Note: Only a user in the ServerAdministrator site role can use the REST API to add or remove another user from the ServerAdministrator site role. Users in the ServerAdministrator site role can only be moved to the Creator site role if one or more Creator licenses have been activated on the server; otherwise these users can only be moved to the Publisher site role. This method only supports the ServerAdministrator site role in API 2.8 and later.
new-auth-setting	(Optional) The authentication type for the user. Important: For Tableau Server, the authSetting attribute only applies when updating users on sites with site-specific SAML enabled settings. For Tableau Cloud, starting in API 3.24, multiple authentication configurations can be created and enabled. Therefore, use authSetting attribute to assign user authentication if only one authentication configuration exists on your site. If working with multiple authentication configurations on a site, use the idpConfigurationId attribute instead to assign user authentication. See idp-configuration-id. You can assign the following values for this attribute: `SAML` - The user signs in using the identity provider (idP) configured for the site. For Tableau Cloud configuration, see Enable SAML Authentication on a Site(Link opens in a new window). For Tableau Server, see Configure Site-Specific SAML(Link opens in a new window). `OpenID` - Tableau Cloud only: The user signs in using Google, Salesforce or OpenID provider credentials. `OpenID` corresponds to Google, Salesforce, or OIDC authentication configuration in Tableau Cloud authentication settings. `TableauIDWithMFA` - Tableau Cloud only: The user signs in using a combination of TableauID credentials and a registered verification method. For more information, see About multi-factor authentication and Tableau Cloud(Link opens in a new window). `ServerDefault` - The user signs in using the default authentication method that's set for the server. For Tableau Cloud, if Tableau hasn't updated your site to require Tableau with MFA yet, you can continue to use this authentication type on a temporary basis. The `ServerDefault` value corresponds to TableauID in authentication settings. For Tableau Server, the SAML(Link opens in a new window) Server help page describes default authentication options.
identity-pool-name	(Optional, Tableau Server only) When identity pools are configured, the name of the identity pool. Starting in API 3.19, include the identity pool name when identity pools are configured and you need to add a user to an identity pool that uses the local identity store and OIDC authentication. For more information, see Identity Pools Methods.
idp-configuration-id	(Optional, Tableau Cloud only) Starting in API 3.24, multiple authentication configurations can be created and enabled at the same time. Include the idpConfigurationId to assign a specific authentication to a user. Include the idpConfigurationId attribute instead of theauthSettingattribute to assign a specific authentication to a user, but not both. If idpConfigurationId or authSetting is not specified, then `TableauIdWithMFA` (or in some cases `ServerDefault` if that option is still available for your site) is the authentication assigned to the user. To find the idpConfigurationId value, use the List Authentication Configurations method. For more information, see Authentication(Link opens in a new window) in the Tableau Cloud Help.

Permissions

This method can only be called by server administrators or site administrators. In addition, site administrators have some limitations in what changes they can make to users:

Site administrators cannot set the fullName value.
On Tableau Server, site administrators can change the email and password values only if the caller is a site administrator for all sites that the user is a member of. On Tableau Cloud, you cannot change a user's email or password.
Site administrators can change the siteRole value only if the site is configured to allow site administrators to add and remove site users. Site administrators on Tableau Cloud can change the siteRole value because they have permission to add and remove site users.
