Tableau Desktop and Web Authoring Help

You can use the Tableau Hyper API to create .hyper extract files (supported in Tableau 10.5 and later). Using the Hyper API you can build applications that can insert, read, update and delete data from those files.

• For more information about the Tableau Hyper API, see the Hyper API documentation(Link opens in a new window).
• For more information about the .hyper format, see Extract Upgrade to .hyper Format.

If you are using Tableau 10.5 and later, you can still use the Upgrade from the Extract API 2.0 to the Hyper API(Link opens in a new window) to create .hyper files. However, the Hyper API provides you more options for working with the extract files and offers improved performance.

The Hyper API runs on Windows, Linux and macOS and supports multiple programming languages, including C++, Java and Python and .NET (C#).
