Embedding Tableau Next Metric, Visualization, and Dashboard components on Lightning pages
Key Takeaway
Build the asset in Tableau Next first. The Tableau Next Metric, Tableau Next Visualization, and Tableau Next Dashboard components only select, filter, and display that asset on a Lightning record page or home page.
Life Sciences Cloud provides three standard Lightning App Builder components: Tableau Next Metric, Tableau Next Visualization, and Tableau Next Dashboard. You place them on a Lightning record page or home page so field users can view analytics in the Life Sciences Cloud mobile app.
What you need first
Tableau Next requires Data 360 and the Data 360 semantic layer, so these components depend on a working Data 360 integration.
Before you add a component, complete the setup for embedding Tableau Next in the Life Sciences Cloud mobile app. You also need to create the assets in Tableau Next, because an asset only becomes selectable in a component's property panel after it exists in Tableau Next.
The components are available in Enterprise and Unlimited Editions with these:
- Life Sciences Cloud
- The Life Sciences Cloud for Customer Engagement Add-on license
- The Life Sciences Customer Engagement managed package
To configure the Lightning pages in Lightning App Builder, you need the "Life Sciences Commercial Admin" permission.
