1. Ensure you have Tableau Desktop version 2023.2 or higher installed and that it is licensed. Use the Salesforce Data Cloud connector to connect to Data Cloud. Note that this is a connector released with the Data Cloud Summer ’23 release as described here. This accelerator works only with the Salesforce Data Cloud connector.
2. Ensure that Tableau has been provisioned access to pull data from Salesforce Data Cloud (previously known as Salesforce CDP). There is great documentation on how to do this on Customer Data Platform’s Help site.
