Replace the end of a view's browser URL with the appropriate file extension. (If you're using a script to process multiple files, only you need access.)įor links to PNG and PDF files, users need the Download Image/PDF permission.įor links to CSVs, users need the Download Full Data permission. With the help of a Tableau content owner or site administrator, ensure that your audience has permission to access the content. But be aware that CSVs of dashboards link to only one sheet-the one whose title is first in alphabetical order. When you link to any of these formats, they always load the latest data available on the server.

The resulting files can be shared with people who lack Tableau Cloud or Tableau Server accounts, incorporated into presentations, or archived for future reference. If you're familiar with scripting, you can also use links to automatically convert multiple views into PNGs, PDFs, or even CSVs. If you work with a website or application that doesn't support embedded, interactive Tableau views, you can link to PNG or PDF versions of them. Note: To download to these formats rather than link to them, instead see Download Views and Workbooks Or, if you're using Tableau Desktop, see Export Views and Export Data.
