    Unable to Use Tabcmd with Sub-Projects

    Published: 17 Jan 2018
    Last Modified Date: 13 Feb 2018

    Issue

    When using tabcmd, there is no option to specify a sub-project. When using the --project option with a sub-project name, an error may occur:

    *** Unexpected response from the server: Not enough permissions
    Sorry, the project you were looking for does not exist, or you do not have permission to see that project.

     

    Environment

    • Tableau Server 10.5+
    • Tableau Online 10.5+
    • tabcmd

    Resolution

    As a workaround, to automate tasks you want to perform on a project within a parent project, use the equivalent Tableau REST API call.

    Cause

    Using tabcmd, you can specify only a top-level project in a project hierarchy. The ability to use sub-projects with tabcmd is not built into the product at this time.
