Since we are using the Oracle Cloud Wallet, you will also need to download and copy these additional files as well:
Linux (Tableau Server): /opt/tableau/tableau_driver/jdbcįollow those instructions and make sure to re-start Tableau after the ojdbc8.jar file has been put in place. Windows: C:\Program Files\Tableau\Drivers
jar file to the appropriate location for your operating system (directories may have to be created manually): As of June 11, 2020, their instructions state:ĭownload the Oracle JDBC driver (ojdbc8.jar) from. Please note: Just after I documented these steps, Tableau changed the way it uses Oracle drivers in Tableau version 2020.2.1. In this example, the drivers for Tableau Desktop 2020.2 are selected. Download and install the Oracle drivers that match the version of Tableau you have installed. Scroll down the page and click on the Oracle entry. Visit the Tableau Database Drivers page: Make sure that Tableau Desktop is not running while the database drivers are being installed. These drivers need to be downloaded and installed separately after Tableau Desktop has been installed. Tableau Desktop requires specific software drivers to work with some database management systems like Oracle. Download and Install the Oracle Drivers for Tableau Desktop
