For more information, see See Tableau notifications in Slack. If a site administrator in Tableau Online or a server administrator in Tableau Server enables notifications on a site, users can control which notifications they receive in Slack by configuring their Account Settings (Link opens in a new window). Once it’s enabled, Tableau users can see notifications in Slack when teammates share content with them, when they're mentioned in a comment, or when data meets a specified threshold in a data-driven alert. The Tableau for Slack integration lets you connect your Tableau site with a Slack workspace. Beginning with version 2021.3, Tableau Server and Tableau Online support integration with Slack, making Tableau notifications available to licensed Tableau users in their Slack workspace.
