Find out which Tableau Next features and analytics app capabilities are available based on your license type.
Required Editions
| Available in: Lightning Experience in Enterprise, Unlimited, and Developer editions |
Tableau Next Analytics apps are available with three license types. Your license determines which analytics content you can view and create.
- Tableau Next Limited Consumer — Provides read-only access to pre-built (out-of-the-box) app content only. No AI features.
- Tableau Next Standard Consumer — Can view custom content created by Standard Creators. Includes AI features such as Concierge and Inspector alerts.
- Tableau Next Standard Creator — Can create and edit custom content, in addition to all Standard Consumer capabilities.
Considerations
- Limited Consumer licenses are already included in Salesforce Foundations and A4X editions at no additional cost.
- You need at least one Tableau Next Creator license to unlock the out-of-the-box (OOTB) app semantic model for editing. Once unlocked, Limited Consumers can view the customized OOTB content.
- Cloned dashboards and visualization are treated as new content and are not accessible to Limited Consumers.
- Workspaces, Semantic Data Models (SDM), visualizations, and dashboards honor data access controls (DAC) and are shareable assets. Other asset types are not shareable.
