Optimize the Model Response of Tableau Agent to Fit Your Workflow

Admins can now select an LLM model response setting for each agent using Agent Settings in Tableau Next.

Admins can choose between response speed and reasoning quality for different business scenarios.

  • Best Accuracy (Default): Advanced reasoning for complex queries, multi-step analysis, and mission-critical insights.
  • Best Performance: Optimized for speed—ideal for simple aggregations and high-volume queries.

For example, an agent used for Sales analytics could use Best Performance for fast answers to questions like "top deals this month" during live calls, while an agent used for Finance analytics could use Best Accuracy for complex fiscal calendar and hierarchy analysis.

The setting applies to all interaction surfaces of Tableau Agent.

Note
Note Tableau Agent default settings use models from multiple vendors. The mix of vendors (such as OpenAI, Anthropic, and others) and models may change over time to optimize accuracy and performance.

If your organization has regulatory, data residency, or other data governance requirements, custom model configurations are available on request. Contact your account team or submit a request during the onboarding process, and a Salesforce representative will work with you to configure your environment to meet your requirements.

Where: This change applies to Tableau Next in Enterprise, Performance, and Unlimited editions.

When: Available June '26

How: In Tableau Next, admins can select Agent Settings, select an active agent, and then click the LLM Model Selection tab. Select a response option (Best Accuracy or Best Performance), and then click Save.

Applies to agents based on the Analytics and Visualization template or custom agents that use the Data Analysis subagent.
