Hey 🙂

What gave me pause was that the extract only failed after my rewrite. It might've been random, but I wanted to understand if I did something wrong as the troubleshooting section is still lean.

I'm using:

  • Tableau Desktop 2022.1.1 64-bit, professional edition
  • Databricks Runtime 10.4 LTS for ETL and data writes
  • "Classic" small SQL endpoint for Tableau integration
  • Connector version - Simba Spark ODBC Driver for Windows version 10.00.22000.01

Table size is 2.3M rows over 20 columns.

Yes, other connectors (Redshift, Athena, GA) are working as expected.

I Haven't tried downloading the data and accessing it locally. How does that work? Can Tableau read Delta lake files locally, or do I need to convert them to another format? Also, how do I do it? I can't find any documentation on how to download a Databricks table as a single file for Tableau to read
