Incomplete data when publishing Tableau Dashboard as CSV or Excel CrossTab

A Dashboard in Tableau is a collection of data from multiple Views. When InfoBurst requests a list of Views in a Tableau Workbook from Tableau, Tableau (via its SDK) reports Dashboards as Views. If an InfoBurst user then opts to publish a Dashboard as CSV or Excel, then the result is a file with incomplete data. This is a limitation of the Tableau Server SDK. We recommend using a View instead of a Dashboard when publishing a Workbook via InfoBurst.
