How can I start using Tableau Desktop?

  • Obtain a Tableau license key. If you do not already have a Tableau license, request a quote by creating an RT ticket to Central Procurement through [email protected].
  • If you already have a Tableau license key assigned to you and are having issues retrieving it, follow Tableau’s customer portal instructions or submit a ticket to EDBI.
  • Once a Tableau license key is obtained, follow the Tableau Getting Started Guide.
