Hi  

 

I am looking for all the tables which are using in Tableau server, weither in the workbook or published data source, and I try to look for them in public.data_connections by using sql query, but in return, the table name are all NULL. 

 

why tablename in public.data_connections( Tableau Server Data Dictionary) is null

 

 

Why is that? and How can I find the tables which used in Tableau? which column or data directory should I look for? 

 

Best regards, 

Mike

    Hey Mike, no code needed, GraphiQL comes built into Tableau Server automatically when you enable the Metadata API. 

     

    Once you've run tsm maintenance metadata-services enable and restarted the server, just open your browser and go to:

    https://your-tableau-server-url/metadata/graphiql

     

     

    Replace your-tableau-server-url with your actual server address, same URL you use to access Tableau Server normally, just add /metadata/graphiql at the end. 

     

    It's a browser-based interface with a left panel where you type queries and a right panel that shows results.
