# Tableau MCP server

The official MCP server published by Tableau. MartechDB lists only servers the vendor publishes itself, never community servers.

- Website: [tableau.com](https://tableau.com)
- Categories: [Analytics & attribution](https://martechdb.com/categories/analytics-attribution.md)

## Tableau MCP server

- Address: https://mcp.tableau.com/
- Runs: Hosted
- Sign-in: Sign-in needs vendor setup (`oauth`)
- Official MCP Registry: not listed
- How we found it: Live check of the vendor's own web address
- Last checked: October 2026, in our research

### Connect it

Claude Code:

```sh
claude mcp add --transport http tableau https://mcp.tableau.com/
```

- Add to Cursor: <cursor://anysphere.cursor-deeplink/mcp/install?name=tableau&config=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL21jcC50YWJsZWF1LmNvbS8ifQ%3D%3D>
- Add to VS Code: <vscode:mcp/install?%7B%22name%22%3A%22tableau%22%2C%22type%22%3A%22http%22%2C%22url%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fmcp.tableau.com%2F%22%7D>
- Claude.ai and Claude Desktop: Customize, Connectors, "+", Add custom connector, then paste https://mcp.tableau.com/
- ChatGPT: Settings, Apps, Advanced settings, turn on Developer mode, Create, then paste https://mcp.tableau.com/ (this usually works only with servers that use self-serve sign-in or none)

JSON for Cursor, Windsurf and other clients that connect to hosted servers:

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "tableau": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.tableau.com/"
        }
    }
}
```

> Tableau doesn't let AI tools sign in on their own. Create an app in your Tableau account first, then use its client ID and secret.
