Govern every workbook in one question.

The Boreon MCP Layer scans every workbook and data source on Tableau Server or Tableau Cloud through Tableau’s own APIs, read-only, and answers in plain words. Then it explains the site itself: failed jobs, node status and how-to answers.

Governance in one question

Scan our site for PII and PHI.

  • PII and PHI, calculated fields and custom SQL included
  • Passwords and keys left in connections or formulas
  • Content nobody opens, users who never sign in
  • Over-permissioned content and duplicate data sources

What one question finds

The Boreon MCP Layer downloads every workbook and data source definition, beyond what the Catalog indexes, which brings formulas and custom SQL into the scan.

  • PII and PHI scan. Every workbook and data source, calculated fields and custom SQL included.
  • Leaked credentials. Passwords and keys left in connections or formulas.
  • Stale and unused. Content nobody opens, and users who never sign in.
  • Over-shared. Over-permissioned content, duplicate data sources, and data sources nothing uses.

Run Tableau without the guesswork

For the Tableau admin, the Boreon MCP Layer reads what used to live in separate consoles and explains it in plain words.

  • TSM, read for you. On Tableau Server, with your TSM credentials: process status on every node, and the error lines that matter from a bounded log bundle.
  • Failed jobs, explained. Extract refreshes and subscriptions that failed, and why, in plain words.
  • Answers from the docs. How-to answers grounded in about 3,000 pages of official Tableau help.
  • Six languages. English, Japanese, German, French, Italian and Russian.

Where each capability runs

The Boreon MCP Layer covers Tableau Server and Tableau Cloud, and reads TSM wherever there is a TSM to read.
