2. Change to the Tableau Server bin directory and run either of the following commands:

• Get URL

  tabcmd get "[URL of your view].csv" -f "[FileName].csv"

  Example

  tabcmd get "/views/Finance/InvestmentGrowth.csv" -f "InvestmentGrowth.csv"

• Export

  Exports summary data from a view on Tableau Server and saves it to a file.

  tabcmd export "[URL after views/]" --csv -f "[FileName]"

  where [remainder of URL] is the URL path starting after views/.

  Example
