Creating a new Connection

Follow the steps in the Tableau Connection Setup section to get connected to your Tableau Server.

​
Connected Apps

As of the 01-04-23 Curator release, Tableau’s connected apps are now supported as a method of authentication. This means SSO is no longer required to support a seamless authentication experience for Tableau Cloud users. All Tableau Cloud connections in Curator utilize connected apps. Curator will create a connected app on your Tableau Cloud site if one doesn’t already exist. You may switch which connected app Curator uses if you need. For more information and a troubleshooting guide, refer to our article about Creating Integrations: Tableau Connection - Connected Apps

​
Custom Domains

In the August 2025 release of Tableau Cloud, Tableau introduced the ability to use custom domains (also known as vanity URLs). This feature primarily circumvents the need for users to modify their browser’s cookie settings to allow third-party cookies, creating a truly seamless authentication experience when accessing Tableau dashboards via Curator. This feature is only available in Curator versions 2025-10-02 and later.

​
Setting up a Custom Domain on Tableau Cloud

To set up a custom domain on Tableau Cloud, follow the instructions provided by Tableau.

​
Adding your Custom Domain to Curator

Once your custom domain is set up and verified on Tableau Cloud, add your custom domain to Curator to add it to Curator to ensure seamless integration. Begin by navigating to your Tableau Cloud connection in Curator. Then, follow these steps:
  1. In the backend of Curator using the left-hand navigation, navigate to the Integrations > Connections page. Click on the Tableau connection you’d like to modify.
  2. In the Tableau Connection section, enter your custom domain URL in the Custom Domain field.
  3. Confirm that Curator can reach the domain, and that there are no warnings: Custom Domain Success
  4. Click Save to apply your changes.
Now when users access embedded Tableau Cloud dashboards they will be loaded through your Custom Domain in Curator.
