Summary

Update a Tableau workbook’s metadata using its ID. Provide the workbook ID and choose which supported fields to change; authenticate with a Connected App JWT or personal access token.

Inputs

  • authentication — Authentication method: Connected App (JWT, default) or Personal Access Token.
  • impersonateUsername — For Connected App authentication, optionally authenticate as another Tableau user. The property description says this requires site administrator privileges.
  • workbookId (required) — ID of the workbook to update.
  • updateFields — Optional fields to set: description, encryptExtracts, name, ownerId, projectId, and showTabs. Use these to change the workbook description, extract encryption, name, owner, project, or whether workbook tabs are shown.

Output shape

A single item containing the Tableau API response for the workbook update.

The operation’s source implementation is omitted from the supplied source pack, so the precise response fields and behavior when no update fields are supplied are not shown.
