| # Tableau Ingestion Guide: Setup & Prerequisites
 | |
| 
 | |
| In order to configure ingestion from Tableau, you'll first have to enable Tableau Metadata API and you should have a user with Site Administrator Explorer permissions.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Tableau Prerequisites
 | |
| 
 | |
| 1. Grant `Site Administrator Explorer permissions` to a user
 | |
| 
 | |
|    A. Log in to Tableau Cloud https://sso.online.tableau.com/public/idp/SSO.
 | |
|    
 | |
|    B. Navigate to `Users`.
 | |
| 
 | |

 | |
|    </p>
 | |
| 
 | |
|    C. **For New User**: Follow below steps to grant permission for new user.
 | |
| 
 | |
|       -  Click `Add Users` -> `Add Users by Email`
 | |
| 
 | |
|          <p align="center">
 | |
|          <img width="75%" alt="Navigate to the Users tab" src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/datahub-project/static-assets/main/imgs/guides/tableau/tableau-add-user.png"/>
 | |
|          </p>
 | |
| 
 | |
|       -  Fill `Enter email addresses`, set `Site role` to `Site Administrator Explorer` and Click `Add Users`
 | |
| 
 | |
|          <p align="center">
 | |
|          <img width="75%" alt="Navigate to the Users tab" src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/datahub-project/static-assets/main/imgs/guides/tableau/tableau-new-user-site-role.png"/>
 | |
|          </p>
 | |
| 
 | |
|    D. **For Existing User:**  Follow below steps to grant permission for existing user.
 | |
| 
 | |
|       -  Select a user and click `Actions` -> `Site Role`
 | |
| 
 | |
|          <p align="center">
 | |
|          <img width="75%" alt="Actions Site Role" src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/datahub-project/static-assets/main/imgs/guides/tableau/tableau-user-list.png"/>
 | |
|          </p>
 | |
| 
 | |
|       -  Change user role to `Site Administrator Explorer`
 | |
| 
 | |
|          <p align="center">
 | |
|          <img width="75%" alt="tableau site role" src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/datahub-project/static-assets/main/imgs/guides/tableau/tableau-site-role.png"/>
 | |
|          </p>
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| 2. **Enable Tableau Metadata API:** This step is required only for Tableau Server. The Metadata API is installed with Tableau Server but disabled by default.
 | |
| 
 | |
|    - Open a command prompt as an admin on the initial node (*where TSM is installed*) in the cluster
 | |
|    - Run the command: `tsm maintenance metadata-services enable`
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Next Steps
 | |
| 
 | |
| Once you've done all of the above in Tableau, it's time to [move on](configuration.md) to configuring the actual ingestion source within DataHub.
