Tableau Knowledge FAQ

Semantics is the business language of your data already defined in Tableau (published data sources, workbooks, catalog, etc.) as well as outside of Tableau.

Knowledge is the broader system that connects your semantics, structured data, and unstructured data, such as documents, PDFs, and wikis, by relationship to tell the complete story of how your business works.

Knowledge graphs connect your structured and unstructured data and semantics by how they relate in your business. So instead of guessing or querying every possible source, agents can efficiently retrieve precise knowledge the way someone familiar with your business would.

MCP, or Model Context Protocol, is an open standard that lets AI agents access external context and tools. Tableau Knowledge is MCP-ready, so any MCP-enabled agent can connect directly to it to retrieve trusted, governed knowledge.
