Issue

Error publishing a Prep flow to Tableau Server:

Error publishing flow. Check that all fields in the Publishing pane have valid values and the flow name and description don't exceed 250 characters.

Environment

  • Tableau Prep Builder 2022.4.0
  • Tableau Server 2022.3 or earlier
  • CSV file
  • Hyper file

Resolution

Recreate the same flow with another Tableau Prep Builder version which is the same major version as Tableau Server.

Cause

The Tableau Server release cadence is not the same as Tableau Prep Builder.  In some cases, errors will occur publishing from a higher version of Tableau Prep than Tableau Server.  For example, publishing from Tableau Prep 2022.4 to Tableau Server 2022.3.  See additional information on Tableau Prep and Tableau Server compatibility in this Tableau Online Help.
