Be on the lookout for an email with instructions on how to activate your personal development sandbox on Tableau Cloud. You'll be building soon!
See the TABLEAU DEVELOPER PROGRAM TABLEAU CLOUD SITE AGREEMENT for full details on developer site usage.
You should read the full agreement above, but a few things we want to point out about your new sandbox:
- Your site may be updated at any time and content could be wiped or lost. Always back up what you’re working on.
- Your site is not intended for heavy workloads. If your site negatively impacts other developer sites, we may throttle or remove it.
Examples for the types of activities you should use the Tableau Cloud development site for include:
- Testing and evaluating new or updated Tableau APIs*
- Build and test Dashboard Extensions that you can deploy internally or share via the Tableau Exchange
- Build and test new embedded deployments of Tableau
- Test automation scripts that use Tableau REST APIs or tabcmd
- Create new workflows for Tableau using webhooks
Examples for activities you should not use the Tableau Cloud development site for include:
- Trying out new end-user features. Use the Tableau Beta program instead.
- Storing customer data or other sensitive information.
- Storing any production or mission-critical content.
- Big data sets or load testing or trying things at scale.
*Note: Use of Tableau APIs is subject to the End User License Agreement terms available at www.tableau.com/eula (“EULA”) and any additional terms located in the applicable Documentation, as such term is defined in the EULA.
