The Report Service helps you display Tableau analytics that are configured for your Zilliant products. It generates a ready-to-use, embeddable URL for a specific Tableau workbook view, so your application can open the report in a browser or embed it in an iframe.
The URL includes trusted ticket metadata, which allows users to view embedded Tableau content without signing in to Tableau.
When to use the Report Service:
Use the Repost Service when you want to:
Embed Tableau views inside your application
Deep-link users to a specific report view (optionally pre-filtered)
Avoid direct Tableau authentication for end users (trusted ticket flow)
Tip
Workbook names, view names, and supported filter parameters are tenant-specific. Your Zilliant representative can provide the correct values for your environment, including any workbook-specific URL parameters.
How to use the Report Service
Identify the report you want to show
Find the Tableau workbook and view you want to embed. You’ll need workbookName and viewName.
Decide whether you need filters or display options
If you want to open the view with filters applied, include the supported workbook URL parameters.
You can also include Tableau embed parameters to control presentation (for example, embed mode or UI controls), depending on what your Tableau setup supports.
Request the embeddable URL
Call GET Get embeddable report view URL with workbookName, viewName, and any optional URL parameters.
Use the returned URL
Use the redirect URL in your application.
