Overview of Tableau#

The Tableau API allows you to tap into the robust data visualization and business intelligence capabilities of Tableau. Within Pipedream, you can leverage this API to automate reporting, manage users, update data sources, and extract insights. This enables you to integrate Tableau's analytics with other services, streamlining your data workflows and ensuring your dashboards remain up-to-date with minimal manual effort.

Connect Tableau#

import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
  props: {
    tableau: {
      type: "app",
      app: "tableau",
    }
  },
  async run({steps, $}) {
    return await axios($, {
      url: `https://${this.tableau.$auth.domain}/api/3.21/sessions/current`,
      headers: {
        "X-Tableau-Auth": `${this.tableau.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
        "Accept": `application/json`,
      },
    })
  },
})

Overview of Node#

Develop, run and deploy your Node.js code in Pipedream workflows, using it between no-code steps, with connected accounts, or integrate Data Stores and File Stores.

This includes installing NPM packages, within your code without having to manage a package.json file or running npm install.

Below is an example of installing the axios package in a Pipedream Node.js code step. Pipedream imports the axios package, performs the API request, and shares the response with subsequent workflow steps:

Connect Node#

// To use previous step data, pass the `steps` object to the run() function
export default defineComponent({
  async run({ steps, $ }) {
    // Return data to use it in future steps
    return steps.trigger.event
  },
})
