Tableau
Tableau is a visual analytics platform transforming the way we use data to solve problems—empowering people and organizations to make the most of their data.

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 Slack#
The Pipedream Slack app enables you to build event-driven workflows that interact with the Slack API. Once you authorize the Pipedream app's access to your workspace, you can use Pipedream workflows to perform common Slack actions or write your own code against the Slack API.
The Pipedream Slack app is not a typical app. You don't interact with it directly as a bot, and it doesn't add custom functionality to your workspace out of the box. It makes it easier to automate anything you'd typically use the Slack API for, using Pipedream workflows.
- Automate posting updates to your team channels
- Create a bot to answer common questions
- Integrate with your existing tools and services
- And much more!

return await axios($, {
url: `https://slack.com/api/users.profile.get`,
