1 of 1 people found this helpfulLike Jeff said, it's not a feature. But you can easily build this as a conditional subscription from a viz that uses the TS Events data source I wrote. You'd download it, open in Desktop, point it to your Tableau Server repository database, then put Item Name on Rows, filter Event Date relative to the Previous day, filter Event Name to "Publish Workbook", and filter "Actor User Name" to just your admins. Publish to Server, and subscribe to the viz on a daily schedule with "Do not send if empty" checked. Data driven alerts would work for this too, but it's a few more steps to set up.

1 of 1 people found this helpfulYep, I tried the built-in TS Events, and it seems to work great for this kind of stuff. Gilbert, here's a screenprint of what it could look like (the event date is set to relative TODAY).

Gilbert Vera Jul 12, 2018 6:53 AM (in response to Jeff Strauss)Wow very nice, now is this only for when a workbook is publish does this count if a tableau has been updated and replace a older version of a existing tableau or only for a brand new tableau all together ?

1 of 1 people found this helpfulFor a workbook publish action, there will be a single "Publish Workbook" event, which will will correspond time-wise with several "Publish View" events--one for each view published.
