Example
Reading And Parsing Tableau Hyper Data
...
First, we configure the JSON Generator and CSV Generator Snaps to pass JSON and CSV data. Upon validation, we get the JSON and CSV data respectively in the output preview of the Snaps.

Next, we configure the Hyper Formatter Snap to transform the JSON and CSV output into hyper extract format. We configure two input views, json_data and csv_data—this creates target tables with the same names in the Hyper database of Tableau.

Next, we configure the Hyper Parser Snap to parse the transformed Hyper data into two tables, one each for json_data and csv_data. Upon validation, we get JSON and CSV outputs in the two output previews.

Finally, we configure two Mapper Snaps to transform the incoming JSON and CSV data. Upon validation, we get the output data for each format (JSON and CSV).
Added the following Tableau Snaps to support hyper extract files for Tableau 10.25 and later versions.
Hyper Formatter: Converts the incoming documents to Tableau hyper extract format and sends the output (extract) to the binary output view.
Hyper Parser: Parses Tableau hyper extract files and converts them to a document format.
Hyper Write: Creates a hyper file in a temporary location (local disk) for incoming documents and publishes it to Tableau Server/Online without packaging it into a data source.

Upgraded with the latest SnapLogic Platform release.

Fixed an issue when updating user information in the Tableau REST Snap by not overwriting the site ID or user ID if the entries already exist.
Info
Behavioral Change
In the 4.23 release, the Tableau REST Snap had a defect where it used site ID and user ID from the Tableau Account even if the selected REST operation required a site ID and/or user ID from the input document. This issue is fixed in the 4.24 release, so that the Snap uses values for the said IDs from the input document when available. Since this fix changes the Snap behavior, it is possible for production Pipelines to fail after the 4.24 release. Hence, you need to reconfigure the Tableau REST Snap using the site ID and user ID values from the input document.
