@kapiladiyecha any solution you found Kapil ? I mean for writing back to the datasource (excel or etc) from tableua web ?
@nikhilknoldus It's been a long time, I can't recall, but it worth trying these extensions. https://extensiongallery.tableau.com/extensions/48 https://m2dot.com/en/tableau-writeback-extension#c2391

@kapiladiyecha thanks Kapil. I went through the links you shared. Making good sense. My scenario you can say is quite weird. I cannot use the tableau desktop (and extension needs tableau desktop), the Clients use tableau web and the data source is excel. I want to give them a write-back functionality so for example, when the user clicks any bar chart, he can edit a particular value there and then save it, it should be saved in that excel file and the tableau chart will fetch out that change to show back.
I understand you have it quite back, thanks for the response Kapil. Appreciated!
npm start
won't work, as there is no "start" script inside package.json.Also, you missed
npm install
command in the documentation, due to that node app.js may throw error if someone doesn't run that :)Thanks
