Add Feature to automate the, "Add to Saved Data Sources" feature

Open planetmatt opened this issue 4 years ago • 0 comments

Currently, I make changes to my Tableau Server Explorer Data Sources in Tableau Desktop where all Data Sources are stored in a single TWB file.

I then have to individually right click on each data source In Tableau Desktop and select "Add to Saved Data Sources" to export each data source to a TDS file in my master data sources folder

After that, I have a Python script to duplicate that set of TDS files for each of my Tableau sites and repoint the data connections in each copy, and then upload each set of data sources to the relevant site on the Tableau Server.

What I want to do is automate the exporting of data sources from the TWB to TDS files. Is this something that can be added to this API Library?
