Tableau allows Administrators to manage their licenses in a way that all users can be added as unlicensed and only grant them a license once they are logging into Tableau Server. You can now use this feature through your Curator. All users that are currently unlicensed will receive a license when trying to log into Curator if you have this feature enabled.

​
Note This feature is only available when you either use SAML or OAuth/OpenID for authentication

To grant license on sign-in with SAML
  1. Login to the backend of your Curator instance (e.g. http://curatorexample.com/backend).
  2. Navigate to the Settings > Tableau > Tableau Server Settings section from the left-hand menu.
  3. In the Authentication tab, expand the SAML Advanced section and enable the “License Users if Unlicensed” toggle.
