hi. I am trying to get answer for the following:

How does the Tableau sharepoint Lists connector grabs the data from sharepoint list? 

Is this done via graph API or rest API? I am trying to write a code to grab the data from sharepoint but it looks like the column names are not the display names and comes in internal name with hexa decimal format for characters from the sharepoint page.

Tableau on the other hand, is able to get the display name from the sharepoint page and not internal name.

thanks in advance !😀

    ​Hi @Pooja Bhat​ ,

     

    By Default it reads data using rest API for most of the third party drivers. Since you mentiones you are writing the code there you are facing this problem not in tableau. Could you please let me know where exactly you are writing this code.
