Getting Started
Does the Zoho Inventory Tableau Connector support Tableau Cloud?
Tableau Cloud does not support the deployment of custom connectors. As a result, deploying reports that connect Zoho Inventory and Tableau cloud is not possible with the CData Tableau connector for Zoho Inventory.
Instead, Zoho Inventory Tableau cloud connectivity is possible through CData Connect Cloud. Connect Cloud is a SaaS platform that provides real-time access to all your cloud data from Tableau Desktop or Tableau Cloud. No coding, installation, or special skills required.
Where can I find the Tableau Zoho Inventory connector download?
All of the CData Tableau Connectors for Zoho Inventory integration are freely available for download online. A 30-day trial of the Tableau Zoho Inventory download can be found alongside other supported Tableau Zoho Inventory integration technologies like ODBC, JDBC, ADO.NET, SQL Server SSIS, and more.
What is the difference between a Tableau Zoho Inventory Driver and the CData Zoho Inventory Tableau Connector?
Unlike a Tableau Zoho Inventory driver, CData offers a native Tableau Zoho Inventory connector for a seamless and optimized experience. Tableau drivers typically rely on an ODBC or JDBC layer, requiring separate tableau add ins, installation and configuration. A Zoho Inventory Tableau driver delivered this way can introduce latency due to external driver dependencies. In contrast, CData connectors provide native Tableau analytics connectivity, delivering optimized performance through direct integration.
