Hi Team,

any idea on

how to identify the means by which reports/dashboard are connected to their data source (users, personal accounts or some other way).

using tableau server version 8.2.2

I have got access to tableau external account but are there any custom views already built for this purpose.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!!

There are not but with the access you get from your other thread you'll be able to do it.

Toby,
I have been looking for this workbook for a while! This is awesome - where did you get it? Did you create it from scratch?

Thanks,

John

This is very easy to do with Tableau's repository. I have attached a simple workbook for your reference.

I had it saved on my computer for a rainy day I don't exactly know who created it...I wanna say Russell Christopher or else Andy Cotgreave.
