安装 Tableau Desktop 和 Tableau Prep Builder 之后

安装 Tableau Desktop 和 Tableau Prep Builder 时，默认情况下会打开一些功能。例如，使用 Tableau Desktop，自动产品更新或自动保存用户工作簿的功能将作为安装的一部分包含在内。但是，您可能具有一些不希望用户访问的功能，例如上传故障转储文件和日志的功能。作为管理员，您可以关闭其中一些功能。

对于 Windows，还可以将自定义内容配置为显示在“发现”窗格中，将默认示例工作簿替换为自定义工作簿，以及在安装过程中关闭某些功能。有关这些功能的列表，请参阅从命令行安装 Tableau Desktop 和 Tableau Prep Builder 中的安装程序属性。

对于 Mac，您可以配置自定义发现窗格内容，将默认示例工作簿替换为自定义工作簿，或者仅在安装后关闭某些功能。若要为“发现”窗格配置自定义内容、将示例工作簿替换为自定义示例或在安装后更改设置（Windows 和 Mac），可以更改注册表或文件，然后重新启动应用程序以查看所做的更改。.plist

若要将更改部署到远程计算机，可以从注册表 （Windows） 或 .plist （Mac） 文件中导出设置，修改要关闭的设置，然后使用修改后的文件创建自动脚本，将更新推送到安装了 Tableau Desktop 的每台计算机。

重要提示：在对注册表文件进行任何更改之前，请始终对其进行备份。错误地编辑 Windows 注册表可能会对您的计算机产生有害影响。

配置“发现”窗格以显示自定义内容（仅限 Tableau Desktop）

默认情况下，Tableau 在 Tableau Desktop 的“发现”窗格中提供培训、博客文章和公共可视化的链接等信息，以帮助您的用户开始使用 Tableau。“发现”窗格在启动时显示，并保留在“开始”页上，以便这些链接和信息始终触手可及。

但是，您可能希望使用“发现”窗格来显示特定于您的组织的内容。为此，您可以为使用启用了 https 的 URL 提供的 Web 服务器上托管的内容创建自己的网页，然后使用 DiscoverPane 密钥和 DiscoverPaneURL 值将 Tableau 提供的默认内容替换为自定义网页中的内容。

注意：为获得最佳效果，请勿使用包含 javascript 或重定向的网页。

为了帮助您快速入门，Tableau Desktop 提供了模板（链接在新窗口中打开）该模型的布局与 Tableau 提供的“发现”窗格的布局相同。只需下载模板并将链接替换为您的自定义内容即可。该模板包括一个指标、布局结构和内容链接部分。

Replace sample workbooks with custom workbooks (Tableau Desktop only)

By default, Tableau provides three sample packaged workbook files to help users explore Tableau. Starting in version 2021.3, you can create up to 5 packaged workbooks targeted to your specific users and replace the sample workbooks Tableau provides on the Start page, Sample Workbooks section with your custom workbooks.

Note: When installing Tableau Server, you can choose to include sample workbooks in the Default site. If you checked the Include samples option during installation, you can publish custom sample workbooks from Tableau Desktop to the Tableau Samples project on your server.

Custom sample workbooks must meet the following requirements:

• You can include a maximum of 5 sample workbooks at one time.

• Only packaged workbook (.twbx) files are supported.

• Workbooks must be stored in directory on a local machine that Tableau and the user has Read access to. Network directories are not supported.

• Workbook file names cannot contain the characters ', ", <, >, or &.

Note: Custom samples aren't persisted when upgrading to a new release version (for example 2021.4). You'll need to specify the file path for your custom samples when installing your upgrade via the command line or modify the registry (Windows) or .plist (MacOS) post upgrade.

Before you start

Windows and Mac

Create a directory on your local machine where the samples are stored and add up to 5 sample packaged workbook (.twbx) files.

You can replace workbook files as needed, but 5 is the maximum number of workbooks that can be shown on the Start page. For information about replacing custom workbooks, see Manage custom workbooks.

Windows

From the command line

When installing from the command line, add the property .CUSTOMSAMPLESDIR="path to directory"

For example: tableauDesktop-64bit-2021-3-0.exe /quiet /norestart ACCEPTEULA=1 CUSTOMSAMPLESDIR="C:\Users\mkim\Documents\My Tableau Repository\CustomSamples"

When you launch Tableau, you should see your custom samples on the Start page.

Post install from the registry

To configure the custom samples directory after install is complete, follow the steps below. Restart the application to see your changes.

1. As an administrator on the computer where Tableau is installed, make a backup of the registry file before you make any changes to it.

2. Open the registry editor ().regedit.exe

3. Navigate to the following registry path:

   Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Tableau\Tableau. For example Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Tableau\Tableau 2021.3

4. Create a new folder named Samples. Right-click on the Tableau version folder, select New > Key then rename the new folder.

   

5. Right-click on the Samples folder that you just created and select New > String Value and name it CustomSamplesDir.

   

6. Right-click on the new CustomSamplesDir string value and select Modify. Then in the Edit String dialog, in the Value data field, enter the full Windows file path to the directory that you set up previously.

   

7. Restart Tableau Desktop to see your changes.

   

8. To reset the sample workbooks to the Tableau Desktop default content, modify the CustomSamplesDir value and clear the directory path that you entered, leaving theValue data field blank. When you restart Tableau Desktop the Sample Workbooks section on the Start page will show the default Tableau content.

Mac

Modify the /Users/

1. Set the value to your custom samples directory by running the following command from the Terminal command prompt. Use the same capitalization as shown below.

   defaults write com.tableau.Tableau-

   For example, in Tableau Desktop 2021.3, use this command:

   defaults write com.tableau.Tableau-2021.3.0 Samples.CustomSamplesDir "/Users/mkim/Documents/My Tableau Repository/CustomSamples"

2. To reset the sample workbooks back to the Tableau Desktop default content, run this command:

   defaults write com.tableau.Tableau-

   When you restart Tableau Desktop the Discover pane will show the default Tableau content.

Manage custom workbooks

When you add custom sample workbooks to Tableau Desktop, a custom.manifest file and worksheet thumbnail images are automatically generated in the custom samples folder that you created when you first open the application.

When replacing custom sample workbooks with new workbooks, you'll need to delete the custom.manifest file so a new file can be generated. Deleting the worksheet thumbnail images is optional.

1. Navigate to the custom samples folder in your local directory.

2. Delete the custom.mainfest file.

3. Delete or move the workbooks and any worksheet thumbnail images (optional) for those workbooks from the custom samples folder.

4. Add your new packaged (.twbx) workbooks to your custom samples folder.

5. Restart the application.

Turn off product updates (Tableau Desktop only)

The Product Updates feature lets users receive product updates automatically or check for and install maintenance updates as they become available. To turn off Product Updates after Tableau Desktop is installed, you must update the key in the registry (Windows) or in the file (Mac) for each computer where Tableau is installed. AutoUpdateAllowed.plist

Windows

1. As an administrator on the computer where Tableau is installed, make a backup of the registry file before you make any changes to it.

2. Open the registry editor ().regedit.exe

3. Set the registry key to . The following table lists the location of the key for different products.AutoUpdateAllowed0

To enable product updates again, follow the same procedure but set the registry key to instead of .10

Mac

Run one of the following commands from the Terminal command prompt.

To enable product updates again, run the same command but specify instead of .10

Turn off file recovery

The file recovery feature enables Tableau Desktop and Tableau Prep Builder (version 2020.3.3 and later) to save your user's workbooks or flow files so that they don't lose work in the event that the application stops unexpectedly. When the user reopens Tableau, a dialog box is shown with a list of the recovered files to select from. The user can open their recovered files and continue where they left off, or they can delete any files they don't want. If they delete the files, then any changes they made since the last time they saved are discarded.

If they delete all of the recovered files in the list for Tableau Desktop or from the Recovered Flows folder for Tableau Prep Builder, the recovery dialog box no longer shows until new recovered files are generated.

The file recovery feature is enabled by default. If you want to disable it, you can change the setting for the property (Tableau Desktop) or the maestro.appSettings.autosave setting (Tableau prep Builder). Click the tab for your product to view the steps to turn off file recovery.AUTOSAVE

• Tableau Desktop

• Tableau Prep Builder(version 2020.3.3 and later)

When you turn off the file recovery feature, the Enable Autosave menu option will not be available to the user. If you want to re-enable the feature after install, you can deploy a registry (or .plist for Mac) update to change the property setting for each computer where Tableau is installed. For more information about how to control this setting during install from the command line, see AUTOSAVEInstaller properties(Link opens in a new window).

For Tableau Desktop, the next time the user opens the application, a dialog prompt opens that enables the user to take one of the following actions:

• Upload the crash files.

• Decline to upload the crash files.

• Permanently opt out from uploading the crash files.

If the user uploads the files, they are zipped together into an encrypted package using a 2048-bit RSA key and sent to Tableau so that an engineer can analyze and identify the issues that caused the crash.

The encrypted package includes:

• Crash dump files (.dmp)

• Error log files related to the crash (.log)

• Manifest files related to the crash (.maifest)

If your organization is subject to data privacy regulations, you can disable this prompt from showing by editing the registry (Windows) or running a script (Mac) on each desktop to prevent users from uploading the crash dump files and logs.

To enable Web Page objects again, run the same command but specify instead of .-integer 1-integer 0

Disable Dashboard extensions (Tableau Desktop only)

Dashboard extensions expand dashboard functionality with the help of web applications created by Tableau and third-party developers. Starting in Tableau Desktop version 2019.4, Tableau supports two types of dashboard extensions: Network-enabled extensions, which run on web servers that can be located inside or outside your local network and have full access to the web, and Sandboxed extensions, which run in a protected environment without access to the web. For more information, see Use Dashboard Extensions(Link opens in a new window) and Extension Security - Best Practices for Deployment(Link opens in a new window).

Both types of dashboard extensions are enabled by default. If you want to disable dashboard extensions during install on each desktop, set the following properties. For more information, see Installer properties(Link opens in a new window).

• DISABLEEXTENSIONS="1": Disables all dashboard extension types.

• DISABLENETWORKEXTENSIONS="1": Disables only Network-enabled extensions. If is set to "0" then users can still use Sandboxed extensions.DISABLEEXTENSIONS
