The CData ODBC driver for Claude Compliance enables you integrate Claude Compliance data into Tableau dashboards.

Integrate connectivity to Claude Compliance data into your enterprise reporting capabilities. The CData ODBC Driver for Claude Compliance enables you to access live Claude Compliance data in business intelligence tools like Tableau Server. Connectivity to Claude Compliance APIs enables you to monitor changes to your data in real time. Other members of your organization can access your dashboards from a Web browser and get updates from their mobile phone.

This article explains how to configure a DSN on the client and server machines, publish a data source for Claude Compliance to Tableau Server, and publish an entire Workbook to Tableau Server (including the data source). If you publish a data source, you will be able to create new, refreshable workbooks in Tableau Server.

Connect to Claude Compliance as an ODBC Data Source

To create a data source or workbook in Tableau Desktop and publish the data source or workbook to Tableau server, you will need to configure a DSN on each machine (Desktop and Server), specifying connection properties and creating DSNs using the same name on each machine. Information for connecting to Claude Compliance follows, along with different instructions for configuring a DSN in Windows and Linux environments.

The driver connects to Claude Compliance using a Compliance Access Key, the only supported authentication method. Set the following connection property:

  • APIKey: The Compliance Access Key you created.

Creating a Compliance Access Key

  1. Enable the Compliance API for your organization.
  2. Sign in to claude.ai as a primary owner or organization owner and open Organization settings > API > Keys.
  3. Select Create Key and assign only the scopes your integration needs:
    • read:compliance_activities for Activities and the typed activity views.
    • read:compliance_org_data for organizations, roles, groups, and settings.
    • read:compliance_user_data for users, chats, files, projects, and downloads.
    • delete:compliance_user_data for the explicit Delete stored procedures.
  4. Create the key and copy it when it appears. The key starts with sk-ant-api01- and is shown only once.

Optionally, set OrganizationUUID to limit organization-scoped views (such as OrganizationUsers and ComplianceRoles) to a single linked organization. If it is left empty, those views default to the first available organization and do not include data from all linked organizations.

When you configure the DSN, you may also want to set the Max Rows connection property. This will limit the number of rows returned, which is especially helpful for improving performance when designing reports and visualizations.

Windows

If you are installing the CData ODBC Driver for Claude Compliance on Windows, DSN configuration is the last step of the driver installation. If you already have the driver installed, or you wish to configure new DSNs, you can use the Microsoft ODBC Data Source Administrator.

Linux

If you are installing the CData ODBC Driver for Claude Compliance in a Linux environment, the driver installation predefines a system DSN. You can modify the DSN by editing the system data sources file (/etc/odbc.ini) and defining the required connection properties.

/etc/odbc.ini

APIKey = your_compliance_access_key

For specific information on using these configuration files, please refer to the help documentation (installed and found online).

Publish the Claude Compliance Data Source to Tableau Server

With the connections to Claude Compliance data configured, you are ready to publish a Claude Compliance data source on Tableau, ready to be leveraged by users in your organization to create workbooks based on Claude Compliance data.

Create and Publish a Data Source

  1. In the Connect pane, click More -> Other Databases (ODBC). Select CData ClaudeCompliance Sys, the system DSN.

    The driver installation automatically creates matching user and system DSNs: The system DSN is needed to connect from Tableau Server.

    The connection to the DSN. (Salesforce is shown.)
  2. In the Database menu, select CData.
  3. In the Table box, enter a table name or click New Custom SQL to enter an SQL query.
  4. Drag the table onto the join area. A connection to a single table. (Salesforce is shown.)
  5. From the Server menu, click Publish Data Source -> (YOUR DATA SOURCE).
  6. Enter the URL to the server. For most instances, you will authenticate with the Tableau Server username and password. Other authentication scenarios can be found below:
    • If Tableau is configured to use Kerberos and your computer has valid Active Directory credentials, Tableau connects to the server.
    • If Tableau is configured to use SAML, a login prompt for your external identity provider is displayed.
    • If Tableau is configured to use Active Directory, enter your Windows username and password.
  7. In the resulting dialog, set the Project, Data Source, and other properties. If you want to schedule refreshes, select Embedded Password in the Authentication menu. Click Publish.

You and other users in your organization can now create and share workbooks based on the published data source.

Refresh Workbooks

With a system DSN configured on the client (Tableau Desktop) machine and server (Tableau Server) machine, you can refresh workbooks connected to the Claude Compliance data source. From the Web interface for Tableau Sever, click Data -> (YOUR DATA SOURCE) -> Refresh.

Refresh the data extract on demand from Tableau Desktop. (Salesforce is shown.)

Publish a Completed Workbook with Claude Compliance Data to Tableau Server

If you have a specific Workbook that you wish to share with your organization, you can create the Workbook on Tableau Desktop and publish the Workbook directly to Tableau Server.

  1. To connect to Claude Compliance and select data, follow steps 1-5 above. A connection to a single table. (Salesforce is shown.)
  2. Click Server -> Sign in and configure the connection to the server. For most instances, you will authenticate with the Tableau Server username and password. Other authentication scenarios can be found below:
    • If Tableau is configured to use Kerberos and your computer has valid Active Directory credentials, Tableau connects to the server.
    • If Tableau is configured to use SAML, a login prompt for your external identity provider is displayed.
    • If Tableau is configured to use Active Directory, enter your Windows username and password.
  3. With the data selected, select dimensions and measures to visualize and select a type of chart or graph to build your visualization(s).
  4. Once the Workbook is complete, click Server -> Publish Workbook to publish the Workbook to Tableau Server.
  5. In the resulting dialog, set the Project, Name, Description and other properties. If you want to schedule refreshes, click Edit under Data Sources and change the Authentication option to Embedded Password. Click Publish.

You and other users in your organization can now review the published workbook from Tableau Server.
