TabPy is the Tableau Python Server, an Analytics Extensions implementation that lets Tableau users execute Python scripts and saved functions via table calculations. It runs as a web server exposing a REST API for evaluating Python code and deploying managed functions.
Use cases
- run python machine learning models inside tableau dashboards
- score data in tableau with a python script
- deploy custom python functions for tableau table calculations
- integrate data science models with business intelligence visualizations
- serve python predictions to tableau via rest api
When to choose
- your organization uses Tableau and wants Python-based analytics embedded in visualizations
- you need to expose trained Python models or functions to BI users
- you want an officially Tableau-supported analytics extension server
When to avoid
- you use a BI tool other than Tableau
- you cannot enable authentication - default unauthenticated setup allows remote code execution
- you need a general-purpose model serving platform rather than Tableau integration
