I have a question about Tableau SSO login using Connected App.

First, I succeeded in issuing a jwt token from the app through cloud settings and embedding the Tableau dashboard properly on the web page.

The next thing I want to do is create a link to log in to Tableau Cloud with SSO using jwt. Is there any help or method for this?

If you look at the attached image, the tableau viz embedding tag can be seen clearly on the web, but when you click the Tableau login link, you will not be logged in automatically and the login window will appear again.

    Hi, connected apps jwt won't work to login you directly into Tableau Cloud UI. The connected apps JWT may be used in embedded scenarios or to log in into the REST API, but not for the Tableau Cloud UI.

     

    So, if you want an scenario like that you would need to add a SSO method like SAML or OpenID to Tableau Cloud.
