AI-generatedSummary
Fetches a Tableau view as a rendered image, with optional caching, resolution, and view-data filters. Returns the image as a binary PNG or a Base64 string, depending on the selected output format.
Inputs
- Authentication (required) — Choose Connected App (JWT) or Personal Access Token. For Connected App authentication, optionally set Impersonate User to authenticate as another Tableau user; this requires site administrator privileges.
- View ID (required) — ID of the view to render.
- Options — Max Age (Minutes) sets the maximum age of the cached image; Resolution can be Standard or High, with High doubling pixel density; Output Format selects Binary File (PNG, default) or Base64 String.
- Variable Filters — Add field-name and value pairs to filter view data. Field names must match columns in the underlying data source; filters are sent as vf_
=value query parameters.
Output shape
A single image result, as a binary PNG by default or as a Base64 string when selected.
The provided source pack shows the view download helper only as a signature-level outline, so it does not expose additional runtime details such as the exact output item structure.
