To the width of the dashboard, in pixels. You’ll need to consider the following key parameters: (look at the section labeled Parameters for prior versions of embedding). Like the iFrame, you can also add new parameters, ifĭesired-see Embed Code Parameters for Views I’ve included a few of these, but most of the time, you won’t True with this example, with the majority of the parameters being placed into Mentioned that we have a variety of parameters available to us. In our case, the div defines theĬontent we’re going to embed and the script then actually creates those ![]() JavaScript examples, so get used to them. These object types will be used in all of our And, at the bottom, we have a script-an element used for some executable code (in our case, theĪctual JavaScript code). At the top, we have a div-essentiallyĪ container for content. ![]() Particular-which we’ll address at the end of the blog. There are also some other concerns with iFrames-security, in Have a lot of limitations, especially when you want to have a bit more granularĬontrol over how the embed behaves-we’ll see some examples of this in the next That would certainly be a viable option, but iFrames Viewing this code, you’re likely wondering why we don’t just use the iFrame We’ll take this apart and I’ll show you how to plug your own This is not quite as nearly as straightforwardĪs an iFrame as we’re now introducing some JavaScript code. This willĬenter the embed on the page (you can use “right” or “left” if preferred). (look at the section labeled Parameters for prior versions of embedding then scroll down to the options for iFrames).įinally, we are then wrapping the entire iFrame with. List of parameters and examples on how to use them in the URL, see Embed Code Parameters for Views Options for hiding toolbars, hiding tabs, and many other options. You can add additional parameters if desired. Server/Cloud/Public, select the share option then use the link option. Is Tableau Public and we can’t remove the toolbar even if we wished. Our example, we use width="2027px" since this Note: You cannot hide the toolbar on Tableau Public. So, with our example, we use width="1500px"ĭashboard, in pixels plus adjustments for whether or not you wish to show the Put “px” after the number of pixels and include the whole Parameters available, but I’ve chosen to only specify the most important onesĭashboard, in pixels. Zoomed to 40% so we can see the entire dashboard. We’reĬentering because, in my experience, it tends to make more sense with Tableau Like the following image, with the workbook centered on the page. The dashboard has a width ofġ500 pixels and a height of 2000 pixels. And this simplicity makes it the easiest type of embed-thusĮxamples, I’m going to be using my viz, The Widening Divide. Type of embed because building more dynamic sizes is a lot of work and isn’tĪlways necessary. However, I tend to add it to all my pure HTML codeĭashboards have a static height and width. Writing this blog and found that everything worked fine without it (so perhaps Layouts did not always work without this tag in place. My pure HTML code includes the following meta tag: Through each example, I’ll share a link to the code on Github, the working HTML To play with the code so you can experiment with your own embeds. These pens allow you to see just theĮmbed code and view the results of that code. Second, I’ve createdĪ collection of “pens” on codepen.io. On Github, indicating the start and end of the embed code. First, I’ve added clear comments to the code Want to use all the code-you’ll want to strip out the extraneous HTML. But, when embedding into a platform, you do not HTML examples which I’ve posted on Github. ![]() Is a big difference between creating raw HTML with embedded content andĮmbedding that content within a web platform. Something you can use as a sort of template so you can easily leverage them in The goal of these examples is to give you Sizing, which allows them to automatically resize to fit the page.Īddress each of these common scenarios using each of the three embed methods-a Or Ranged Sizing – Dashboards that are built with automatic or ranged Platforms-each with its own unique height and width. These contain what amounts to separate dashboards for different target Layouts – A dashboard built using Tableau’s Device Designer. Sizing-essentially a static height and width. And we also discussed the three most common embeddingġ) Fixed-Sized – A dashboard that uses fixed Three methods we’ll use for embedding: iFrame, JavaScript Embed API v2, and Going back and reading it, as we’re going to build upon that foundation today, If you haven’t read this primer, then I highly recommend Important terms, discussed the primary methods we’ll be using, and discussed aįew common scenarios. The previous blog in this series, A Guide to Embedding Tableau # 1: A Primer on Embedding, introduced you to the concept of embedding, defined some
