Question

How to download the Tableau Server installer without having a web browser on your Linux browser. If I use a command line download tool such as curl or wget, what are the URLs?

Environment

Tableau Server on Linux

Answer

The direct download URLs for Tableau Server for Linux installer packages are available on the Release page for each version. Right-click the download link for the desired package in a web browser and select Copy link.

For example, the Tableau Server 2023.1.2 version release download links can be found on the 2023.1.2 release page, https://www.tableau.com/support/releases/server/2023.1.2.

The specific Linux distribution downloads available for each Tableau Server version are described below.

RPM files for Amazon Linux, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS, and Oracle Linux:

Tableau Server <version> RPM
https://downloads.tableau.com/esdalt/<version>/tableau-server-<version>.x86_64.rpm

Note: <version> should be replaced with the actual existing version number in the above example.
For exanple, for Tableau Server 2023.1.3, it should be -- https://downloads.tableau.com/esdalt/2023.1.3/tableau-server-2023-1-3.x86_64.rpm

DEB files for Ubuntu LTS

Tableau Server <version> DEB
https://downloads.tableau.com/esdalt/<version>/tableau-server-<version>_amd64.deb

Command line tools like wget and curl can be used to download files via http. For example:

wget https://downloads.tableau.com/esdalt/<version>/tableau-server-<version>.x86_64.rpm
Note: <version> should be replaced with the actual existing version number in the above example.

See your Linux distribution's documentation for more information.
