Hello,
I can't seem to find the file path to a ESRI geodatabase connection in my Tableau Desktop workbook.
Tableau defaulted the connection name to gdb when I created the connection. Now when I click edit connection it shows me the file path of a different gdb file (which I know is not the right one) that I used in a separate Tableau workbook for a completely different project.
Since edit connection is not showing me useful information, is there there an alternative to clicking edit connection, that allows me to see the file path for local data connections?
Best,
Patrick
Hi Peter,
Thanks for the reply.
I do not see properties when I right click the connection. I see properties when I right click the data source. When I click the data source properties a little table pops up with three rows: Property, Table, Type (see below).
- The Property row says "Value"
- The Table row has a common separated list of my table names (one of them being the gdb)
- The Type row says "Federated"
It does not show the underlying file paths of the different connections in this federated data source. Please let me know if I am looking in the wrong place.
Patrick
