    Determine Published Data sources without any associated Workbook

      Hi Tableau Gurus!!

      I am Tableau Server admin with 7000+ published reports. We have a Self-Serve model where Publisher publish their own content. To have better control and check & balance on published content, I want to put a process in which we could periodically Identify all Published Data sources which do not have any associated Workbook i-e data source may be being Refreshed without being used.

       

      Cleaning up these kind of data sources will definitely help us a lot by freeing up system resources.

       

      I am feeling challenged to find how to get this info from workgroup/postgres db. Couldn’t find any relationship between Datasource and Workbooks.

       

      Need something like following;

       

      Data Source Name # of Workbooks (or Workbook name)

      ABC 2 (or XYZ/XYZ1)

       

      Can you please help us with this.

       

      Thanks.

      Syed.
