Great video, thanks a lot, I am currently cooking my personal web site and just found your video, I have a question, do you know which one of the two method is the best to embed a tableau dashboard?
Thanks for checking out the video! Both methods have their pros and cons, but I'd recommend the method that best fits your website's needs. With sometime authentications can get complicated but if you are using tableau public then you could use any... it will work fine
Hi, glad you made this video and all the informative comments and replies on this video. I had a question too, please do reply- I had a requirement to embed a dashboard into our own company's website and i had created a dashboard in Tableau-cloud but as you said anyone in public internet cant see that. i will choose tableau public for this but how can i connect tableau public with some databases/aws, as i see there are not much connectors available in Tableau-Public just G drive and a "O Data" please suggest me. I was thinking of setting the backend data in Postgre.
Tableau Public doesnt have much data connector options. The best way id to use static excel data which you can update every now an then. In tableau 2022 conference they talked about Broadcast option where you can broadcast your dashboard to public. Please check that with your tableau account manager if that option is stilll available? I will investigate as well and will let you know if i find something on that.
Yes it works the same way. You can use tableau server link but you can publish that on your company intranet if your tableau server is behind firewall. Hope that helps.
Thats a great question. If you are planning to embed it in company web portal which i assume will be sitting behind firewall . If not then check with your company infrastructure team to confirm how the web portal can be put behind the firewall and company security. Hope that answer your question. Cheers!
Thank you. If a SQL query is feeding the tableau dashboard and it is YTD data, will the html code have updated data? Or will new code have to be copy and pasted every time?
Thats a great question. In order to login to tableau server, you have to authenticate the user for normal access to even if you are embedding the dashboard. You can check with your infrastructure team if they have any privacy policy in place to restrict auto login or they can enable auto authentication based on Active directory login and it won't prompt user to enter a password. Hope that helps. Cheers!
Is there a way for me to do this with Tableau (not public) where people can't copy it? But they can still see and use the visualization on my website. Just not copy the sheet directly on Tableau Public. Thank you
Can we use real time data with the embedded link, like if i make changes to my database can it be reflected in dashboard, if yes pls let me know how to do it
Yes, you can do that by using the live connection in datasource. However it might impact the performance of the workbook depending on the size of data and the workbook design as it might take some time to render the data in the dashboard.

Is it possible to access Tableau dashboards hosted in private Tableau server which is only accessible in intranet if we embed it on our company website which is publicly accessible? Please reply on priority
That’s a great question. Short answer is “no”. You can publish the dashboard on private tableau server. U can access it on your intranet. Also you can embed it on company website which is accessible on your intranet. You can’t embed it on an internet. If you want to do that then publish it on Tableau public.
Thanks for your response, I have one more question. Is it possible to access the Tableau dashboard when embedded on company website if I make it accessible to public rather than using Tableau Public platform? Also is it possible to make it accessible using Connected apps or Trusted Authentication methods?
@@rahilshaikh2311 No, it wont be possible as on your tableau server, you have to assign license to the users. However if you make it available for public you need to assign license to them which is not feasible. So for public facing dashboard, you have to use tableau public.
Thank you for your response. I have one last question which I'll try to brief in detail: I have a website whose html code is developed in a local private network machine (developer laptop, 10.166.2.x subnet), and a Tableau Server hosted in a private server subnet (Linux OS, 10.1.220.x subnet). I am embedding a Tableau dashboard which is currently published on my privately hosted Tableau Server. I have assigned a license to the user in Tableau Server as well. Now my question here is if suppose the website user login username is 'websiteadmin' and my Tableau Server username is 'tableauadmin', will this work in a private network using the Trusted Authentication method? Or it works only in case if both website and Tableau Server username is identical. Kindly answer.
Hi Gurpreet, Just want to understand that without a URL i e if i l dont have tableau server/tableau cloud/Tableau public how can i embed this in an application.. I mean can we embed .twbx file with some Apis? Please advice.
Hi Neha, I haven't used SAP Fiori but if it has an option to embed other websites using then you could try that. or you could use the embedded link when you select share option in tableau. Hope that helps!
Thats a great question. This is what is available by default. I havent removed it and tested it but feel free to delete them and try if that works and share the outcome.
Thanks for your feedback. It works the same way from on Premise server and you and embed it’s on a webpage hosted on your intranet as most of the companies have their own firewall. You have to make sure you can access your tableau dashboard from public network if you are trying to embed on public website else try to host your website on intranet and try again. Hope that helps 😊
Great tutorial, i have embed tableau dashboard from tableau on-prem, but when i load the web that was embedded tableau dashboard, the web page need login to tableau server but when I login it, the web page like stuck, and back to login again. Any advice or solution for this?
Are you trying to embed tableau onprem dashboard on your onprem web page or on a public web page. If its on public web page then it might not work due to firewall in your company network. you might need to check with your company network. Hope that helps.
Hi Gurpreet, 1 question. I am using Tableau public to create a dashboard, which I want to embed on a page of my website. If I do this, will anyone be able to use my embed code and show my dashboard on their site or portals? If yes, is there any way to stop it from happening ?
Hi Manish, Tableau public is a forum for everyone in tableau community and anyone can share / embed the content. The best way is to embed your initials or Designed/ Devloped by at the bottom of dashboard so everyone knows its your work and then embed it on the website. you can disable the download option in your tableau public profile so no one can download your work from public profile if you want some security around that. Hope that helps 🙂 Please feel free to reach out if you need more infromation.
You just saved me hours of documentation scrolling. You are a god. Subscribing now. Thank you.

is it possible if use tableau server instead tablau public to embed in website ?
Yes it works the same way. You can use tableau server link but you can publish that on your company intranet if your tableau server is behind firewall. Hope that helps.
what about security? How is that working if you embed a dashboard into a company web portal?
Thats a great question. If you are planning to embed it in company web portal which i assume will be sitting behind firewall .

Thank you. If a SQL query is feeding the tableau dashboard and it is YTD data, will the html code have updated data? Or will new code have to be copy and pasted every time?
Thats a great question. Data in the dashboard will update automatically. No need to publish the code everytime
@@DataVizCanvas Thanks!
how to automate the login in tableau server?, so that the tableau login window does not appear...
Thats a great question.
In order to login to tableau server, you have to authenticate the user for normal access to even if you are embedding the dashboard. You can check with your infrastructure team if they have any privacy policy in place to restrict auto login or they can enable auto authentication based on Active directory login and it won't prompt user to enter a password. Hope that helps.
