My team has created a dashboard for a state agency that we are contracted with. They want to host it on their website, but still have us update and maintain the dashboard. I currently have it published to Tableau Public for the sake of sharing it with them internally/updating how it looks, but I'm confused about how we can put it on their website, given they have specific security permissions due to being a government entity.  

 

I've looked into Tableau Embedded Analytics as a way to have them host the dashboard and have a domain lock. Has anyone tried this before?

I'm looking for a tableau custom admin dashboard which can give details based on backgrounder and refresh extract and tasks table. I'm looking for jobs refreshed, failed and successful with workbook, project folder, year, date

    Thanks Emeric for your response. This is helpful. 

     

We have been experiencing recurring Tableau Server degradation on our production environment running Tableau Server 2025.3.3.  

We have observed multiple service crashes and the server occasionally enters a degraded state.

  • Mainly Vizdata Native service instances have entered an error state
  • VizQL Server instances have also experienced crashes, although they recover and come back up
  • Windows Event Viewer shows the following application errors:
  1. vizdataservice.exe crashed with exception code(access violation) with jemalloc identified as the faulting module.
  2. run-vizqlserver.exe crashed with exception code(heap corruption) with ntdll identified as the faulting module
  • The crashes have occured at different times, across multiple Tableau processes

We have reviewed some of the service logs and crash files, but we have not yet identified a definitive root cause. We are investigating whether this could be related to Tableau Server build, a shared dependency, memory management, data source activity or any other underlying issue. 

Questions: 

1. Has anyone experienced similar recurring crashes or degraded status on Tableau Server? 

2. Could these errors be related to a product build, a specific workload or a shared dependency? 

Any suggestions or similar experiences would be greatly appreciated. 

Thank you in advance!

    Hi @Ashika Shetty

     

    honnestly a .3 maintenance release is not optimal. Could be a bug or undesired effect. You should test the latest maintenance release of 2025.3 and compare. 

    That being said, you are not sharing much information about your server host and topology and load pattern. Tableau Server is designed to consume from 95% to 100% of all available resources (CPU / RAM / Disk drive) in case some heavy or expensive load is triggered. So to administrate a Tableau Server properly, ideally you should have monitoring in place that tells you at the moment of the crash, how many users were connected, how much CPU and RAM was being consumed by each Tableau process, and how much space there was left. Then you can understand where is the pain point. If you don't have any monitoring in place, a good start would be to load the TS logs into Logshark utility:

Hi all! 

 

I am experiencing an issue with my Tableau dashboard scroll position. When I navigate to different tabs on my dashboard, the scroll position will reset to the bottom of the dashboard. It does not matter if I have scrolled to the bottom or not when on the current page.  

 

I am using Tableau Desktop to build, Tableau Public to publish, and am embedding the dashboard on a private company-wide site. The issue reproduces on Tableau Public and embedded on my private company site. I have published dashboards using these steps before, and have not run into this issue before.

 

I have managed to rule out the following solutions:

  • Dashboard device view (ex: preview, desktop, default)
  • Dashboard navigation buttons are at the very top of my page
  • Issue reproduces on Tableau Public and embedded on my private company site
  • Each dashboard page is around the same dimensions
    • I have not experienced this issue with the scroll bar with dashboard pages of different dimensions previously, so I strongly believe this is not the issue
  • To test, I uploaded a dashboard that I built on Tableau Desktop, published to Tableau Public to publish, and embedded on a private company-wide site without this issue
    • My result was that I experienced the same issue with the scroll bar when this was not previously present :(

 

Does anyone have any advice for this issue? Thank you!

    Thank you so much! Happy Halloween :)

Hello Tableau Community, 

 

I'm looking for advice on a Hive migration that touches a large number of published workbooks on Tableau Server. I've tested several approaches and found a limitation I'd like to confirm or get around. 

 

ENVIRONMENT 

- Tableau Server 2025.1.11 on Linux (Oracle Enterprise Linux 8.10) migrating to AWS EC2 Linux 

- Data source type: Cloudera Hadoop / Hive (class='hadoophive'), authenticated with Kerberos (Kerberos delegation, embedded credentials in some connections) 

- Content: about 1,500 workbooks and 100+ data sources; many workbooks are extract-based and some extracts are 50-100 GB 

- 10 TB overall data 

 

GOAL 

The Hive source is moving to a new server in a different Kerberos realm. Every connection needs to point to the new Hive host and use the new Kerberos details: 

- Server / port: old host -> <new-hive-host>:10000 

- Kerberos realm: <OLD_REALM> -> <NEW_REALM> 

- Kerberos host FQDN: <old-hive-host-fqdn> -> <new-hive-host-fqdn> 

- Kerberos service name: Hive -> hive 

 

I'd like to do this in bulk and, if possible, without downloading and republishing the full-size workbooks, because of the extract sizes and the time that would take. 

 

Any experience with a similar migration, or pointers to documentation, would be very much appreciated. 

 

Best Regards, 

Rami Reddy Jaggavarapu, 

Tableau Server administrator.

    Hi @Rami Reddy Jaggavarapu

     

    to keep it short, the connection details and authentication type information you are targeting are existing in one place only: in the xml of the content, meaning tds/tdsx for data sources, and this xml is stored in the Tableau Server postgres internal repository as blob. 

    So I would personally download the data source without extract using the  REST API  (without extract), manipulate the xml to match what you want and republish the datasource. 

    I'm not aware of any REST API endpoint that would allow to change all of that, especially with Kerberos / viewer credentials delegation type. 

     

I have created a forecast and upper and lower prediction interval for my organization surrounding our count of hospital admissions.  Is there a way to retain the predicted values after the actual admissions have been occurred?  For example, you'll see in my screenshot that 60 admissions are predicted for today, 10/27/26, with a lower prediction interval of 46 and an upper prediction interval of 75.   

 

Tableau Desktop Forecasts for Tableau Server 2025.3

Tomorrow, once 10/27/26 has passed and we have the actual admission numbers, is there a way that the estimated values can be retained for reference? 

I cannot include the workbook because it contains PHI/PII.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

    @Elizabeth Bumgarner

    the screenshot is very helpful, but can you provide some context as to how things are working in the workbook?  

     

    For example, is there a join of actual data (actual admissions) to the forecast data?  Or how is that being produced/handled?   

     

    Can you provide just the calculations being used for the

    forecast

    for each measure (1) No. of Admissions (2) Upper Prediction (3) Lower Prediction.   

     

    Are there filters or parameters being used here as well? 

     

    If you can provide these answers, that may give others some additional context for a possible solution; especially, for a situation whereby we won't be able to have the actual workbook. 

     

    Not sure that I'll be able to respond with a solution, but the added info. may help.

Hi all! 

 

I just noticed Server version 2026.3.0 after the vulnerability notices last weekend. Has the Server release cycle changed recently or is this a one-off version? At least I have not heard anything about changes to the release cycel

    Hello @Matz Rasmus

     

    Yes, the Tableau Server release cycle has officially changed permanently. It is not a one-off version or a mistake. 

    Starting with the October release (version 2026.3), Tableau Server is returning to a four-month major release cycle.

I am experiencing an issue where I cannot permanently delete a specific user from our Tableau Server environment. 

 

Below are the steps I have taken so far: 

1. Attempted to delete the user via the Tableau Server web interface (Users page). 

2. The deletion failed with the following error message, and the user was changed to an "Unlicensed" status: "User '[Username]' could not be deleted because they own content. '[Username]' has been unlicensed."  

3. To resolve this, I navigated through the server and deleted all related content owned by this user (including workbooks, data sources, and any associated trash). 

4. Attempted to delete the user again. 

5. The deletion still fails, and the user remains locked in the "Unlicensed" state. 

 

Currently, the user appears to own zero content in the UI, but the system still prevents complete deletion. 

 

Could you please advise on how to completely and permanently remove this user rather than leaving them in an "Unlicensed" state? If there are any hidden dependencies (such as custom views, subscriptions, personal spaces) or TSM maintenance commands required to clean up orphan metadata, please let me know. 

 

Best regards,

       I recently upgrade to Tableau Server Version: 2026.2.1 (20262.26.0708.1337) 64-bit Linux, keep getting Data Engine down & up :( 

 

       Tuesday, October 27, 2026 at 12:42:52 PM Hong Kong Standard Time

        DOWN: Data Engine

 

        Tuesday, October 27, 2026 at 12:43:04 PM Hong Kong Standard Time

        UP: Data Engine 

 

What is the best way to troubleshoot it ? 

 

Thanks

Hello Everyone, 

 

I noticed a new behavior in filter selection after we upgraded to Tableau Server 2026.3.0 and I wanted to check if this was common to other people / if someone had found a fix. I'll try to make myself clear. 

 

When I have a long list of values in a filter - let's imagine countries - and that I select one of them and apply the filter, if I then want to select another, I used to click on "All" then click on it again to clear the filter and then look for the next country I want to filter on. This used to work fine. Now when I do this, the search automatically selects all search results with the previously selected country unticked. 

 

So let's imagine I used to have filter values AA, AB, AC, AD and had filtered on AA, if I search "A" I will see AB, AC, AD selected and AA unselected which is very odd, forcing me to either manually select the desired value or to use the apply button when unselecting all so that the filter "resets". 

 

Did anyone else notice something similar ? I checked on Desktop and the issue doesn't happen, only on Server/Cloud so this looks to be definitely tied to the update.  

 

Could this be patched in the next update ? This is really bothering our users

    Having this exact same issue (and everyone else in my org). Happening on tableau cloud/website and not the desktop editor. I am pretty sure its tied to this new cloud update as well. Have not found a fix yet but wanted to follow this post in case someone else does.
