Followed your steps to install tableau extensions.But I am not able to see the extensions option in tableau server.

Steps Followed: 1.Download extensions-api-master zip folder from github. Install Node.js and npm 2.Copy the Parameters .trex files of the sample you wish to run to ~\Documents\My Tableau Repository (Beta)\Extensions so they are available to Tableau. 3.Open a command prompt window to the location where you cloned this repo. 4.Run npm install. 5.Run npm start

I am using Tableau desktop Professional Version 2018.1.0. Please help me resolve the issue ASAP as I am new to using extension API.

Did you download Tableau Desktop and Tableau Server from the Extensions API Developer Preview?
You need to be running a version of Tableau Desktop or Tableau Server that supports the Extensions API.
You can also use the Tableau 2018.2 beta release (preferred). The beta is available from the Tableau 2018.2 Beta site.

Hello, Some large enterprise companies are on previous versions of Tableau due to the red tape around upgrades. Will compatibility for Extensions & TabPy come with 10.3 & 10.4 versions?

In order to use extensions, you will need to upgrade to at least 2018.2.
