When downloading data from a dashboard view, the api should be able to target a specific sheet.
Request Type
Type 3: new functionality
Requests for totally new functionality will generally be passed to the relevant dev team, but we probably can't give any useful estimate of how or when it might be implemented. If it is a feature that is 'about' the API or programmable access, here might be the best place to suggest it, but generally feature requests will be more visible in the Tableau Community Ideas forum and should go there instead.
Description
A clear and concise description of what the feature request is. If you think that the value of this feature might not be obvious, include information like how often it is needed, amount of work saved, etc. If your feature request is related to a file or server in a specific state, describe the starting state when the feature can be used, and the end state after using it. If it involves modifying files, an example file may be helpful.
When the sites/site-id/views/view-id/data endpoint is invoked and the view is a dashboard, the sheet used to populate the data seems random. The REST API should enable the user to enumerate the sheets used in a view (dashboard) and specify one as the target for querying view data.
