Example: Base URL: https://10az.online.tableau.com/t/zetainteractivecorporation/views/Coke_Insight_Portal_v41/Dashboard

Parameter: ?:embed=y

Final shareable URL:

2. Validate that the preview for PDF and Embed Link are correct.

3. Verify that the file was uploaded/embedded by reviewing the Business Intelligence Reports list

In the case of URL, ensure that the URL loads as expected.
In the case of a PDF, ensure that the PDF is rendering correctly.
In the case of XLS or PPT, ensure that the download functionality is working correctly.

Please reach out to Zeta’s Support Team for your local servers to be configured and embedded in Business Intelligence Reports using Zeta’s SSO connection.

Email Addresses from your local server should match those used to login to ZMP, and roles and permissions will be managed by your local server administrator.
SSO can only be configured for users with the same email address, and the user should be added as part of the Zeta account.
If SSO is not used, then users may have to log in twice, once with their ZMP credentials within ZMP, then again, with their local Tableau credentials managed locally.
