Don't rely on dynamic parameters in published data sources, especially extracts. This won't work if the parameter value isn't in the workbook when refreshing. With a published data source, the value won't change without a workbook opening. #tableau#datafam
@JeffKomen@tableau I’ve raised a support case about this. It was a formatting option prior to v2023 being released. Now the first letter option shows M., Tu., W., Th., F., Sa., Su. whereas it previously provided M, T, W, F, S, S as expected. I have written a workaround calculation while I wait.
hi @ms4446 can you offer me any tips? I'm trying to use the BigQuery Storage API to speed up the process of creating Tableau extracts but when I do, it fails to initialize and falls back to the standard BigQuery API. I would very much appreciate any guidance.
The API fails to initialise and falls back to the standard BQ API… so I’m stuck with my slow extract refreshes still. Is there an application configuration setting for Tableau in GCP admin to enable the API?
#datafam has anyone successfully connected #Tableau to #GoogleCloud using the #BigQuery JDBC connector for Tableau 2023 and built an extract with the BQ Storage API? I can use the API with a Python script but not when connecting with Tableau.
@zachrenwick corporate security issues mean that even this fix has to be applied 2+ times per day (https://t.co/HSSBYbrjVF) .... then even when it is working, I can't get the high throughput API to initialise (faster extracts) and it fails with a generic error :(
@SimbaTech I'm struggling to use your BigQuery connector for Tableau, getting errors like "GeneralException: STORAGE_API_INIT_ERR". Where can I go for help?
@alexeskinasy API is enabled, now trying to work out what permissions are required and how to check what permissions my account has.
We’re not using the INTERVAL data type.
I’m still having to recreate the cert 2+ times each day :-(
Hi @alexeskinasy I'm trying to use the new BigQuery JDBC connector but struggling. First, this knowledge base solution (https://t.co/HSSBYbrjVF) is only temporary so I'm having to create a new certificate at least 2-3 times per day. Second, I can't get the Storage API to start

got any tips to push me in the right direction so I can enjoy the great benefits touted of the new connector?
I'm getting these errors in the log:

Hi @lukestanke in this workbook you’ve used a technique for details/help/filters where the new information appears on top of the current visual. Have you copied all of the elements of the dashboard multiple times to achieve this? https://t.co/ql10CkVOMR
