Tableau Workbook Auditor Overview

Tableau Workbook Auditor MCP server analyzes Tableau .twbx workbooks directly from local disk. It parses workbook XML to expose lineage, calculated fields, filters, dashboards, data sources, stored SQL, audit findings, and semantic differences between versions. Use it when an AI assistant needs to inspect workbook structure without Tableau, an account, or uploading sensitive files. The packaged extract is not decompressed, so analysis is limited to metadata stored in the workbook.

Primary Use Cases for Tableau Workbook Auditor:
  • Audit inherited Tableau workbooks
  • Trace calculated-field dependencies
  • Compare workbook versions semantically
  • Find unused fields and duplicate calculations
