Download View Crosstab Excel

Downloads an Excel (.xlsx) file containing crosstab data from a view that the user has permission to access in a workbook. If a crosstab is exported from a dashboard, data from only the first view in the dashboard will appear in the .xlsx file. Downloads of data from story dashboards are not supported at this time.

If you make multiple requests for an .xlsx, subsequent calls return a cached version of the file. This means that the returned .xlsx might not include the latest changes to the workbook. To decrease the amount of time that a workbook is cached, use the maxAge parameter.

Note the data exported is at a summary level only. Detail level data is only available as a download option in the user interface.

This method includes the ability to filter a view using fields in the underlying workbook data. To learn more about filtering query views, see Filtering and Sorting in the REST API.

URI

GET /api/api-version/sites/site-id/views/view-id/crosstab/excel

GET /api/api-version/sites/site-id/views/view-id/crosstab/excel?maxAge=max-age-minutes

GET /api/api-version/sites/site-id/views/view-id/crosstab/excel?vf_<fieldname>=filter-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 workbook.
view-id	The ID of the view to use as the source of the crosstab to be downloaded as an `.xlsx` file.
max-age-minutes	(Optional) The maximum number of minutes an `.xlsx` file will be cached on the server before being refreshed. To prevent multiple `.xlsx` requests from overloading the server, the shortest interval you can set is one minute. There is no maximum value, but the server job enacting the caching action may expire before a long cache period is reached.
filter-value	The value of the field that you want to use to filter the workbook view. For example, a workbook with the filter `/excel?vf_year=2017` would only display data from the year 2017. To learn more, see View filter queries.

Request Body

None

Permissions

To export a crosstab to an .xlsx of a view, users who are not server administrators or site administrators need Read and ExportData permissions for the workbook containing the view and for the view itself.

Response Code

200

Response Body

This method has no response body. The response is in the form of a downloaded .xlsx file. The response header content will have Content-Type: application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet.

The response is a file that contains the crosstab, whose data is no older than 60 minutes, saved as an .xlsx file.

Download Workbook

Downloads a workbook in .twb or .twbx format.

Security note: Content in .twb or .twbx files downloaded using this method is stored in plain text. All data, including filter values that may give semantic clues to the data, will be readable by anyone who opens the files.

URI 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-luid	The LUID for the site.
page-size	(Optional) The number of items to return in one response. The minimum is 1. The maximum is 1000. The default is 100. For more information, see Paginating Results.
page-number	(Optional) The offset for paging. The default is 1. For more information, see Paginating Results.
field-expression	(Optional) An expression that lets you specify the set of available fields to return. When a request has a valid field expression, describing the attributes of a Tableau resource like a workbook or datasource, only the attributes specified in the expression will be present in the response. For example, a field expression that results in a response containing only the resources LUIDs of the resources being requested would look like: `?field=id` You can qualify the expression to return values based upon predefined keywords such as `_default_`, which returns only default values, and `_all_`, which returns default and non-default values. You can include multiple field expressions in a request, and mix field, sort, and filter expressions in the same request. The supported fields for custom views are its attributes: `id`, `name`, `createdAt`, `updatedAt`, and `shared`. For more information, see Using Fields in the REST API.
filter-expression	(Optional) An expression that lets you filter which Tableau resources are present in the response. A filter expression has a resource, an operator, and a value. For example, a filter that returns only resources created after a specified date would look like: `?filter=createdAt:gt:2016-08-26T18:00:33Z` (where `gt` is the greater-than operator) You can include multiple filter expressions in a request, and mix field, sort, and filter expressions in the same request. The supported filters for custom views use the `eq` (equals) operator, with the resources: `viewId`, `ownerId`, and `workbookId`. For more information, see Filtering and Sorting in the Tableau REST APII.
sort-expression	(Optional) An expression that lets you sort the Tableau resources present in the response. A sort expression contains an attribute name and a direction (`asc` or `desc`). For example, a sort expression that sorts the requested resource by creation date with the latest date first would look like: `?sort=createdAt:desc` You can include multiple sort expressions in a request, and mix field, sort, and filter expressions in the same request. The supported filters for custom views use the `eq` (equals) operator, with the resources: `viewId`, `ownerId`, and `workbookId`. For more information, see Filtering and Sorting in the Tableau REST API.

Permissions Details

For users who do not have administrator permissions:
The custom views present in the response to a request, and the details of those views that are displayed, depend on four things:

Does the user have both Write and WebAuthoring permissions for the custom view?
Is the user is the owner of the custom view
Is there filter applied in the request parameters.
Is site user visibility(Link opens in a new window) set to Limited?

The expected behavior in a response is as follows:

If the request has no filter parameters: Users will see only custom views that they own.
If the filter parameters include ownerId: Users will see only custom views that they own.
If the filter parameters include viewId and/or workbookId, and don't include ownerId:
- Users will see those custom views that they have Write and WebAuthoring permissions for.
- If site user visibility in not set to Limited, the Users will see those custom views that are "public", meaning the value of their shared attribute is true.

Publish Workbook

Publishes a workbook on the specified site. To make changes to a published workbook, call Update Workbook or Update Workbook Connection.

This method is used in two ways. You can call it to publish a workbook in a single request. To do that, you include the content of the workbook file in the body of the request. The maximum size of a file that can be published in a single request is 64 MB. If you want to avoid having the publishing process time out, you can use the asJob parameter to make workbook publication asynchronous.

Alternatively, you can publish a workbook in multiple parts. To do that, you initiate a file upload by calling Initiate File Upload, send portions of the file to the server using Append to File Upload, and then commit the upload by calling Publish Workbook. In this case, Publish Workbook doesn't contain the file to publish.

Hiding views in a published workbook
To exclude certain sheets (also known as views) when you publish a workbook, configure them in the request as hidden. You cannot publish a workbook if all sheets are hidden.

Extracts with multiple table options
If an extract was stored using the multiple tables option, you can't append data to it.

Workbooks that rely on external local resources
When you publish a workbook from your local computer to the server, the publish process will fail if the workbook relies on resources (such as an Excel file or other data file) that are on your local computer but are not available on the server. (Unlike the publish process that is used in Tableau Desktop, the REST API publish process cannot automatically include extracts or other resources that the workbook uses.) If you are publishing a workbook that gets its data from a source on your computer, save the workbook as a packaged workbook (.twbx file) and publish the package so that workbook has all the resources it needs on the server.

For more information, see Publishing Resources.

POST /api/api-version/sites/site-id/workbooks?uploadSessionId=upload-session-id&workbookType=workbook-file-type&overwrite=bool&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 publish to.
overwrite-flag	(Optional) true to overwrite a workbook that has the same name, or false to fail if the specified workbook already exists. The default is false. If overwrite-flag is set to true but the workbook doesn't already exist, the operation succeeds.
asJob-value	(Optional, boolean) If `false`, the workbook publishing process runs as a synchronous process. If a workbook is very large, the process might time out before it finishes. If you set this value to true, the process runs asynchronously, and a job will start to perform the publishing process and return the job ID. You can check the status of the import job by calling Query Job. Default value is `false`.
skip-connection-check-flag	(Optional, boolean) If `true`, then the Tableau server will not check if a non-published connection of a workbook is reachable. Publishing will succeed but unchecked connection issues may result in a non-functioning workbook. If you encounter this issue, follow Keep Data Fresh guidelines(Link opens in a new window). Default value is `false`.
upload-session-id	If you are calling this method to commit a file that was uploaded in parts, this value contains the upload session ID that was generated by a call to Initiate File Upload. If this value is not included, the server assumes that the body of the request contains the file to be published.
workbook-file-type	twb or twbx to indicate whether you have uploaded a workbook file (twb) or a packaged workbook file (twbx). This value is required if you are calling Publish Workbook in order to commit a file that was previously uploaded using Append to File Upload. The value is not used if you upload a file in the body of the request.

Request Body

The content type in the header of requests to publish a workbook must use the mixed multipart content type with a boundary string definition, in the form of: Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary=boundary-string.

Attribute Values

boundary-string	A string of characters that is guaranteed to be unique within the body of the request, and that is used to delimit sections of the request body. This value must be declared as a header that has this format: `Content-type: multipart/mixed; boundary=boundary-string`
workbook-name	The name to assign to the workbook when it is saved on the server.
show-tabs-flag	(Optional) Specify true to have the published workbook show views in tabs; otherwise, false. The default is false.
user-luid	(Optional) The LUID of the user to generate thumbnails as. You can get the user LUID by calling Get Users on Site.
server-address	(Optional) Specify the server address for a data source connection if that data source does not use OAuth.
port-number	(Optional) Specify the port number for a data source connection if that data source does not use OAuth.
connection-username	(Optional) If the workbook's data source connections require credentials, the <connectionCredentials> elements are included and this attribute specifies the connection username. If the element is included but is not required (for example, if the data source uses OAuth), the server ignores the element and its attributes. Note: Even if credentials are embedded in a workbook, you must still provide credentials when connecting to a data source that requires credentials, unless that data source uses OAuth.
connection-password	(Optional) If the workbook's data source connections require credentials, the <connectionCredentials> elements are included and this attribute specifies the connection password. If the element is included but is not required (for example, if the data source uses OAuth), the server ignores the element and its attributes. Note: Even if credentials are embedded in a workbook, you must still provide credentials when connecting to a data source that requires credentials, unless that data source uses OAuth.
embed-flag	(Optional) If the workbook's data source connection requires credentials, the <connectionCredentials> element is included. Setting this attribute to true instructs the server to save the credentials for when the data source is used.
oauth-flag	(Optional) If the workbook's data source connection is configured to use OAuth, set this to `true` to specify that the value of the name attribute in the <connectionCredentials> element is an OAuth username. In that case, no password is required and the value of the embed attribute specifies whether to embed the OAuth credential with the workbook, and the server address and port number are not required. For more information, see OAuth Connections(Link opens in a new window) in the Tableau Server documentation.
hide-view-flag	Setting this flag to `true` will cause the named view to be hidden in the published workbook. The default value is `false`. You can specify any number of views to hide. If all views in a workbook are hidden the server will not perform a publish.
project-id	The ID of the project to assign the workbook to. If the project is not specified, the workbook will be published to the default project.

Query View Data

Returns a specified view rendered as data in comma-separated-value (CSV) format.

CSV data is provided in the response body, rather than as a download. If the request is for a dashboard, only data for the dashboard's first view is returned.

If you make multiple requests for a view's data, subsequent calls return a cached version of the data. This means that the returned data might not include the latest changes to the view. To decrease the amount of time that an data is cached, use the maxAge parameter.

For Tableau Cloud, concurrent requests to endpoints that start long-running jobs, including this one, are limited to 20 at a time. A 429 HTML reponse means that a request exceeded the limit and should be retried at a later time. (introduced September 2021).

Note the data exported is at a summary level only. Detail level data is only available as a download option in the user interface.

This method includes the ability to filter a view using fields in the underlying workbook data. To learn more about filtering query views, see Filtering and Sorting in the REST API.

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 view.
view-id	The ID of the view to render as data.
max-age-minutes	(Optional) The maximum number of minutes view data will be cached before being refreshed. To prevent multiple view data requests from overloading the server, the shortest interval you can set is one minute. There is no maximum value, but the server job enacting the caching action may expire before a long cache period is reached.
filter-value	The value of the field that you want to use to filter the workbook view. For example, a workbook with the filter `/data?vf_year=2017` would only display data from the year 2017. To learn more, see View filter queries.

Query Workbook Preview Image

Returns the thumbnail image as a PNG file for the specified workbook. Usually the image that is returned is for the first sheet in the workbook.

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

GET /api/api-version/sites/site-id/workbooks/workbook-id/previewImage

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 workbook.
workbook-id	The ID of the workbook to return the thumbnail image for.

Request Body

None

Permissions

Users who are not server administrators or site administrators can query a workbook preview image only if they have Read (view) permission for the workbook (either explicitly or implicitly) and also have Read (view) permission for the view that is used as the preview image. If the user doesn't have Read permissions to that view, the preview image for another view might be used. If the user doesn't have Read permissions to any views in the workbook, the user is not allowed to query a workbook query image.

Notes on Data Freshness Policy(Link opens in a new window) and View Acceleration(Link opens in a new window):

Data Freshness Policy and View Acceleration are independent features.
If a policy is set without view acceleration for a workbook, then only query caching(Link opens in a new window) for the workbook will be affected by the policy.
If a workbook has a data freshness policy configured, then updating the workbook to turn on view acceleration will not impact the policy unless the update explicitly changes that.
If a workbook has accelerated views enabled, but does not have a data freshness policy explicitly set for it, data will be refreshed on the site default cadence of every 12 hours.
On Tableau Cloud, view acceleration is limited to 12 refreshes per day, per view. If data freshness policy for a workbook is set to refresh data more frequently than every 2 hours, refreshes for a view after the 12th one will not trigger the computation that accelerates that view until the first refresh of the next day.
The preceding example shows the freshAt data freshness policy option. The freshEvery option is illustrated in the following Attribute Values section.

Attribute Values

workbook name (Optional) New name for the workbook being updated.

workbook showTabs (Optional) Specify true to have the updated workbook show views in tabs; otherwise, false. The default is false.

workbook recentlyViewed (Optional) Set this value to true to have the updated workbook show in the site's recently viewed list. The default is false. Once the flag is set to true, setting it to false will have no effect. When enough views or workbooks have populated the recently viewed list, the oldest item will fall off the list and its recently-viewed-flag will revert to false.

workbook encryptExtracts (Optional) true to encrypt the extracts or false to not encrypt extracts. For more information, see Extract and Encryption Methods.

workbook description (Optional) The new description for the updated workbook.

project id (Optional) The LUID of a project to assign the workbook to.

owner id (Optional) The LUID of a user to assign the workbook to as owner.

dataAccelerationConfig accelerationEnable (Optional) Boolean: If true, accelerate the specified view(s). Default is false.

dataAccelerationConfig accelerateNow

(Optional) Boolean: If true, make view acceleration available as soon as possible. Default is false. Note, the view object in the response (visible by using the ?includeViewAccelerationStatus=true query parameter) contains the accelerationStatus attribute, which can have the following values:

Off - Accelerate now is not enabled.
Pending - Accelerate now is enabled, but backgrounder processes are still running to make the acceleration available.
On Acceleration is enabled.

view id (Optional) LUID: The LUID of a view being accelerated. If no views are listed in the request then all views in the workbook will be accelerated.

dataFreshnessPolicy option

(Optional) Enum: The data freshness policy mode for scheduling refreshment of the workbook data specified in the request. A valid value is one of:

SiteDefault - Use the default scheduling policy: refresh the data every 12 hours).
AlwaysLive - Refresh as the data changes.
FreshAt - Define a detailed cadence for refreshing the data.
FreshEvery- Define an interval between data refreshes.

freshAtSchedule frequency

(Optional) Enum: The interval of workbook data refresh. A valid value is one of:

Day
Week
Month

freshAtSchedule time (Optional) Time in HH:MM:SS: The time of day that workbook data will be refreshed, in increment of 15 minutes. Minutes must end in 00, 15, 30, or 45. for instance time="10:30:00".

freshAtSchedule timeZone (Optional) Timezone string in IANA format: The timezone of the fresh at schedule time. For instance, timezone="America/Los_Angeles". If no timezone is provided, then the local timezone of the Tableau server is used."

freshAtSchedule intervals interval

A value that specifies the interval between refreshes of view acceleration data. The value you specify here depends on the value specified in freshAtSchedule frequency.

Day

If the schedule frequency is Daily, no interval is specified. Any information specified in the <intervals> element is ignored.

Week

The interval expression is weekDay="weekday", where weekday is Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, or specify multiple <interval> elements to indicate that scheduled jobs should run on multiple days during the week.

Month

The interval expression is monthDay="day", where day is either the day of the month (1, 2, etc.) or LastDay.

freshEverySchedule frequency

(Optional) Enum: The time unit used for the cadence of view acceleration data refreshes. The count of the specified unit that occurs between refreshes is determined by freshEverySchedule value. A valid value is one of:

Minutes
Hours
Days
Weeks

freshEverySchedule value (Optional) Integer: The quantity of frequency units between view acceleration data refreshes. For instance, to specify a refresh every 4 hours, the dataFreshnessPolicy would look like:

XML JSON

Copy

<dataFreshnessPolicy option="FreshEvery">
  <freshEverySchedule 
  frequency="hours" 
  value="4" />
  </dataFreshnessPolicy>

Copy

"dataFreshnessPolicy": {
  "option": "FreshEvery",
  "freshEverySchedule": {
  "frequency": "hours",
  "value": 4"
  }
}

With the exception of dataFreshnessPolicy options, any combination of the elements inside the <workbook> element is valid. Only the attributes and child elements that are included result in updates to the data source. If no attributes or nested elements are included, no update is made.

The dataFreshnessPolicy option can only be one of listed options, and the elements of a specified option are required for that option to be updated.

If the <project> element is included, the id attribute must be included; other attributes of the <project> element are ignored.

If the <owner> element is included, the id attribute must be included; other attributes of the <owner> element are ignored.

Update Workbook Connection

Updates the server address, port, username, or password for the specified workbook connection.

If the workbook contains multiple connections to the same data source type, all the connections are updated. For example, if the workbook contains three connections to the same PostgreSQL database, and you attempt to update the user name of one of the connections, the user name is updated for all three connections.

Any combination of the attributes inside the <connection> element is valid. If no attributes are included, no update is made.

URI

PUT /api/api-version/sites/site-id/workbooks/workbook-id/connections/connection-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 workbook.
workbook-id	The ID of the workbook to update.
connection-id	The ID of the connection to update.

Request Body

<tsRequest>
  <connection
    serverAddress="server-address" serverPort="port"
    userName="connection-username" password="connection-password"
    embedPassword="embed-password"
	queryTaggingEnabled="query-tagging-enabled" />
</tsRequest>

Attribute Values

server-address	The new server for the connection.
port	The new port for the connection.
connection-username	The new username for the connection.
connection-password	The new password for the connection.
embed-password	`True` to embed the password; otherwise, `False`.
query-tagging-enabled	In API 3.23 (Tableau Cloud June 2024 / Server 2024.2) and later: using `queryTaggingEnabeld` to enable query tagging for individual connections is deprecated, will no longer be supported, and may be retired in future releases. Instead: - For Tableau Cloud, query tagging will be enabled for all content on a site by default. - For Tableau Server 2023.3 and later, you can use TSM to enable query tagging for all content on a server by setting native_api.UserInfoInGeneratedSQLEnabled(Link opens in a new window) to true. For API 3.22 or earlier: `true` to enable query tagging(Link opens in a new window) that associates a specific server log query event with the Tableau resource that made the query. `False`, which disables query tagging, is the default.

Any combination of the attributes inside the <connection> element is valid. If no attributes are included, no update is made.

Permissions

Users who are not server administrators or site administrators can update permissions only for a workbook for which they have the Write capability (either explicitly or implicitly). Only users with administrator permissions can enable or disable query tagging.

Required scope for JWT authorization

Introduced in Tableau Cloud June 2022 (API 3.16) and Tableau Server 2022.3 (API 3.17).
