We are starting on a new tableau implementation, so thinking of going directly with VC but facing issues.
We use Snowflake as backend. After creating a new VC and importing a table. If I made changes to a table in Snowflake like add columns or rename existing columns there seems to be no way refresh the metadata in VC. So i might have to go Custom SQL for the VC.
Did anybody face this issue or if not can you try changing metadata of the backed table and let me know how to do this?
if tableau online is 2022.1 this issue gets fixed. You can now go ahead and use the table and new columns show up. You need to republish the VC after new column is added to backend. But we noticed the performance of tableau has gone down a lot by using VC after 2022.1. I see it is trying to create temp tables and drop them and failing. This is happening due to VC and not in direct data source to snowflake. Can you confirm if you see this as well?
