I am trying to create an overview of the users who have accessed a particular Tableau Dashboard. Preferably, the overview should display statistics of the users' activity on a country level, departmental registration number, region, and the individual user-id of those who have accessed it. I have the data on a local database. However, I cannot find any neat solutions to this online.
I think you can use Tableau Server.
I'm sending you the link http://onlinehelp.tableau.com/current/server/en-us/adminview_bucket.htm.
You have the option to use Administrative views pre-built or get it customised. All the information should be in the right-hand side.
Hope you find this useful.
Thanks

This is my first question, so I hope I don't miss a thing. To be clear from the start: I don't expect an answer which dives deep into detail. This is just about getting a general understanding of how to work with this kind of software.
So I don't know if "Identity Management System" is a suitable term for what I mean but when I talk about Identity Management Systems I think of something like Azure AD, which as far as I know provides e.g. web developers the possibility to integrate a way users can authenticate (including access privilege etc.) on their website.
What I'm quite unsure about is how to work with/ integrate such tools in a project. I will try to make it clear with an example: Assuming I have a website let's say this website is a blog. The blog consist of different posts which are stored in my own database which is connected to the website. The posts are written by different users which authenticate with a tool like Azure AD. The user's data is stored somewhere on a server run by e.g. Microsoft. If I want to display the posts togethere with the name, email.... of the user who wrote them, how would I do this?
Is it possible to query the user's data directly from the Identity Management System and display it? This does not sound ideal to me as the consequence would be that data the website uses is stored in two different locations.
Would you kind of copy the user's data from the Identity Management System to the websites database and query it from there? This does not sound like a good solution either because then data would be duplicated.
So whats the "right workflow"?
I appreciate any hints and further information I can get:-)
AFAIK To get the user's information like name, email etc. you can add these claims while generating the JWT token.
To generate access token, you have multiple authentication flows such as Authorization code flow, ROPC flow, Implicit flow.
To add the claims that you need to return with the token, you can make settings like below:
Go to Azure Portal -> Azure Active Directory -> App Registrations -> Your app -> Token configuration -> Add optional claims
When you decode the token via JSON Web Tokens - jwt.io you can find the user information that you need.
To know how to generate access token, you can refer SO Thread which I solved it before.
Is it possible to build one Google data studio report (i.e., template) and use a URL that links it to a specific data-set or defines a hidden filter that creates a sample of a larger data set?
I understand Data Control allows this for users operating under the same Google domain.
However, I want to provide multiple university student teams with their personal information but not allow the other teams to see or filter for information that they should not see. Ideally I could simply share a customised URL with each team that takes care of this filtering/sampling.
Any guidance appreciated - many thanks!
You can do this with custom bookmarks and URL parameters.
I want to build service desk dashboards and I want to look at a database structure with a ticketing system to understand exactly what am I going to need. I am working with Jira already and I wanted to check its database, but I haven't found what I need.
Thanks in advance!
On the administrator's System page sidebar, there's a "Plugin Data Storage" menu item that will show you what database tables correspond to each add-on. From there you can see that Service Desk table names usually begin with AO_54307E.
You shouldn't need to access the database directly. Check https://docs.atlassian.com/jira-servicedesk/REST/server/ for whether the information you need is available via the REST API.
I'd like to create visualforce page that inserts a record into salesforce account object. However, I expect some of the page users won't have salesforce accounts. Can they still access it? If not, what are the alternatives that can be used to visualforce page in this case? (Please don't consider Web to Lead Forms).
Thanks,
Yes, it's possible. Go read about Salesforce Sites. For a start:
http://wiki.developerforce.com/page/Websites
http://wiki.developerforce.com/page/An_Introduction_to_Force.com_Sites
(of course it's also possible to write that page in say Java/.NET/PHP and use integration via SOAP or REST to talk to Salesforce... but these 2 main links will keep the whole solution within SF so no need to need to learn new language, have extra maintenance effort etc)
Sites are VF pages that expose a bit of your company's data without need to log in. You can use them to input data too, just remember that in theory anybody could learn the link and spam you (not too different from web2lead, inbound email handlers etc). You specify security in a way similar to Profiles, the records will have "Created By = {site name} Guest User".
I don't think there's anything out of the box to restrict visibility, they're open to whole world. So if you would want something similar to login IP ranges (so only sales reps from your office's network can enter data) - you might have to write some logic in the controller.
I have a webapp deployed on GAE and users can sign-in using OpenID. Once users are signed-in they can access the data store for their own data.
Now, if I want to establish a "shared data space", how can I achieve such a thing? Can I give access to user A to data from user B? We share entities? How can I overcome access restrictions?
Any help on this aspect will be greatly appreciated.
EDIT 1
Not quite the BigTable expert. I'm not looking for magical kingdom solution, just pointer on how to tackle this problem (blog, article, tutorial, etc).
But if I get it right, data is accessible by anyone with access to the application (if access control is available). So if I give the a {KEY, entity} pair to user B from user A he will be able to access it no problem?
Maybe I'm just confusing concepts...
The GAE datastore is a database. Data stored in it is in no way restricted to a single user. BTW, you don't even have to sign in to use a GAE application. Just query for the data you want, and you'll get it, whether the current user stored it or anyone else is irrelevant.
