We’re proud to announce that OptiSigns now supports Tableau integration!

One of the oldest, most revered names in data visualization software, Tableau has been serving its customers since 2003. It’s used in boardrooms, conference rooms, call centers, and far more to make presentations more visual and interactive. This level of engagement helps organize and qualify data, helping stakeholders make more informed decisions.

With OptiSigns, this valuable tool no longer needs to be confined to the conference room, but can be displayed on any TV or screen in your organization.

Dynamic Tableau Reports on the Big Screen

From providing information to a customer base or giving real-time sales or inventory numbers to a team, there are countless reasons to display PowerBI on a TV screen in your office or warehouse floor. It allows your team to keep track of their KPIs in real time, with dynamic updates appearing within minutes.

How to Display Tableau on a TV

OptiSigns integrates directly with Tableau as a Connected App to receive direct access to your Private or Public reports.

Tableau can be set up as an OptiSigns Integration, which then can be used inside the OptiSigns app to set up any Tableau report from a single account:

Finally, create a Tableau asset using the Integration and the Share link from your report.

Using these features, it’s possible to quickly and easily view an entire report through OptiSigns and display them on any type of screen. Simply assign your new Tableau asset to a screen, and let it play.

Full Tableau Dashboards as a Playlist

OptiSigns provides granular control over each aspect of your report by allowing each tab its time to shine. 

Each Tableau asset acts as a single tab of any given report. These can be created individually, then stacked in a Playlist. Tabs with of lesser importance can be deprioritized, de-emphasized, or left out of the Playlist altogether if you so choose.

Each asset can be cycled through with varying amounts of time given to create the ultimate Tableau viewing experience.

Here is more information on OptiSigns Playlists.

The Power of Scheduling Tableau Dashboards

OptiSigns’ powerful scheduling feature lets your dashboards only display when and where you want them.

Place your data on display at specific times or specific places. Auto start the entire process. OptiSigns makes information sharing a breeze.
