Request: Connection.Queryband & Connection.initial_sql #160
Comments
The rest api doesn't support this on the Server side -- updating the library model wouldn't have an effect. I think the preferred route is to keep document operations in the document-api, and then you'd publish that updated twb/tds via the SCL. |
so, i've been trying to accomplish that all day however, there are a couple pain points here.
|
Is there a good place on github to request that initial sql and query bands be added to the rest api? |
This is the correct place to add that request. We can certainly take a look but we have a number of other items on on backlog right now. Also, it feels like you are trying to set a policy on the server that should apply to all datasources (probably of some type) and that this is just your way of making it to work. Is that accurate? |
Correct, I'm trying to set all the old workbooks to follow the policy and do it in a bulk manner. Also it would help for programmatically adding a datasource=<name_of_datasource> (which currently doesn't exist, only <name_of_workbook>) Basically whenever we need to change or edit this policy it would be very useful to be able to update these things via the rest api as there are significant pain points with downloading everything and reuploading. |
Thanks for the details. I think the policy mechanism itself is an interesting item which I have heard from many customers and might be something we should think about. For the ability to edit more properties of the datasource without having to download it, we will put some thought but I don't know if or when that would happen. Thanks for the feedback! |
Hey guys, given that TC17 has rolled around I thought now might be a good time to check on the status of this request and the rest API in general. p.s. I'm here at the conference so if there is a session you'd recommend I check out please let me know. |
Very similar to tableau/document-api-python#109 & tableau/document-api-python#110
I'd like the ability to edit these connection fields through this package.
Glancing at the code it looks like a simple copy paste expansion... but i'm not super familiar with rest apis and any magic going on here.
