Tableau Connector 1.0 Reference

Configurations


Hyper configuration

This configuration provides users access to the HyperAPI Java library developed by Tableau. Users can create, update, and delete hyper files locally.

Hyper Configuration requires you to provide a path to the hyperd executable file. It is not possible to use Hyper Configuration and its operations in CloudHub because CloudHub does not allow executing external code due to security reasons.

Publish datasource

<tableau-specialist:publish-datasource>

Publishes a data source to the site, or appends data to an existing data source. To make other changes to a published data source, call Update Data Source or Update Data Source Connection.

Use this operation in the following ways:

  • Publish a data source in a single request. You must include the content of the data source file in the body of the request. The maximum size of a file that can be published in a single request is 64 MB. To avoid timing out the publishing process, use the asJob parameter to make data source publication asynchronous.

  • Publish a data source in multiple requests. You must initiate a file upload by calling Initiate File Upload, sending portions of the file to the server using Append to File Upload, and then committing the upload by calling Publish Data Source. In this case, Publish Data Source does not contain the file to publish.

Parameters

Publish workbook

<tableau-specialist:publish-workbook>

Publishes a workbook onto the site. To make changes to a published workbook, call Update Workbook or Update Workbook Connection.

Use this operation in the following ways:

  • Publish a workbook in a single request. You must include the content of the workbook file in the body of the request. The maximum size of a file that can be published in a single request is 64 MB. To avoid timing out the publishing process, use the asJob parameter to make workbook publication asynchronous.

    Allow the verification to fail.

Custom OCSP Responder

Configures a custom OCSP responder for certification revocation checks.

Field Type Description Default Value Required

Url

String

URL of the OCSP responder.

Cert Alias

String

Alias of the signing certificate for the OCSP response. If specified, the alias must be in the truststore.

CRL File

Specifies the location of the certification revocation list (CRL) file.

Field Type Description Default Value Required

Path

String

Path to the CRL file.

Redelivery Policy

Configures the redelivery policy for executing requests that generate errors. You can add a redelivery policy to any source in a flow.

Field Type Description Default Value Required

Max Redelivery Count

Number

Maximum number of times that a redelivered request can be processed unsuccessfully before returning a REDELIVERY_EXHAUSTED error.

Message Digest Algorithm

String

Secure hashing algorithm to use if the Use Secure Hash field is true. If the payload of the message is a Java object, Mule ignores this value and returns the value that the payload’s hashCode() returned.

Message Identifier

Defines which strategy is used to identify the messages.

Object Store

ObjectStore

Configures the object store that stores the redelivery counter for each message.

Redelivery Policy Message Identifier

Configures how to identify a redelivered message and how to find out when the message was redelivered.

Field Type Description Default Value Required

Use Secure Hash

Boolean

If true, Mule uses a secure hash algorithm to identify a redelivered message.

Id Expression

String

One or more expressions that determine when a message was redelivered. You can set this property only if the Use Secure Hash field is false.

Repeatable In Memory Stream

Configures the in-memory streaming strategy by which the request fails if the data exceeds the MAX buffer size. Always run performance tests to find the optimal buffer size for your specific use case.

Field Type Description Default Value Required

Initial Buffer Size

Number

Initial amount of memory to allocate to the data stream. If the streamed data exceeds this value, the buffer expands by Buffer Size Increment, with an upper limit of Max In Memory Size value.

Buffer Size Increment

Number

Amount by which the buffer size expands if it exceeds its initial size. Setting a value of 0 or lower specifies that the buffer can’t expand.

Max Buffer Size

Number

Maximum size of the buffer. If the buffer size exceeds this value, Mule raises a STREAM_MAXIMUM_SIZE_EXCEEDED error. A value of less than or equal to 0 means no limit.

Buffer Unit

Enumeration, one of:

  • BYTE

  • KB

  • MB

  • GB

Unit for the Initial Buffer Size, Buffer Size Increment, and Buffer Unit fields.

Repeatable File Store Stream

Configures the repeatable file-store streaming strategy by which Mule keeps a portion of the stream content in memory. If the stream content is larger than the configured buffer size, Mule backs up the buffer’s content to disk and then clears the memory.

Field Type Description Default Value Required

In Memory Size

Number

Maximum amount of memory that the stream can use for data. If the amount of memory exceeds this value, Mule buffers the content to disk. To optimize performance:

  • Configure a larger buffer size to avoid the number of times Mule needs to write the buffer on disk. This increases performance, but it also limits the number of concurrent requests your application can process, because it requires additional memory.

  • Configure a smaller buffer size to decrease memory load at the expense of response time.

Buffer Unit

Enumeration, one of:

  • BYTE

  • KB

  • MB

  • GB

Unit for the In Memory Size field.

Filter Expression

Field Type Description Default Value Required

Field Name

String

Name of the field.

x

Operator

String

Name of the operator.

x

Value

String

Name of the value.

x

Sort Expression

Field Type Description Default Value Required

Field Name

String

Name of the field.

x

Direction

Enumeration, one of:

  • ASC

  • DESC

Type of direction.

x

Repeatable In Memory Iterable

Field Type Description Default Value Required

Initial Buffer Size

Number

Number of instances to initially keep in memory to consume the stream and provide random access to it. If the stream contains more data than can fit into this buffer, then the buffer expands according to the Buffer Size Increment field, with an upper limit of Max In Memory Size.

100

Buffer Size Increment

Number

This is by how much the buffer size expands if it exceeds its initial size. Setting a value of zero or lower means that the buffer should not expand, meaning that a STREAM_MAXIMUM_SIZE_EXCEEDED error is raised when the buffer gets full.

100

Max Buffer Size

Number

Maximum amount of memory to use. If more than that is used then a STREAM_MAXIMUM_SIZE_EXCEEDED error is raised. A value lower than or equal to zero means no limit.

Repeatable File Store Iterable

Field Type Description Default Value Required

In Memory Objects

Number

Maximum amount of instances to keep in memory. If more than that is required, content on the disk is buffered.

Buffer Unit

Enumeration, one of:

  • BYTE

  • KB

  • MB

  • GB

Unit for the In Memory Objects field.
