Live Connection between Tableau and Qualtrics
hello,
Is there a way I can create a live connection between qualtrics and tableau so that the responses start flowing to my dashboard as and when survey is submitted?
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Rahul

Hi @Rahul and @aslatton! This is actually possible to do if you have the version of Tableau called Tableau Server. Note that some users are able to set up Tableau Server using our powershell script. However, since if that doesn’t appear to be working for you, below is how to set-up your Tableau Server manually (not needed for non-Server Tableau customers):
1. We’re essentially going to be walking through the import method listed on Tableau’s website: https://onlinehelp.tableau.com/current/server/en-us/datasource_wdc.htm
2. Download the following .zip file at: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B3XMYUTJznJkWEdLbnpmeHJhN1k
3. Extract the .zip file to your Tableau server machine: e.g. C:\\QualtricsWebDataConnector
4. Open a command prompt and navigate to your Tableau Server installation directory: _cd C:\\Program Files\\Tableau\\Tableau Server\\10.0\\bin_ NOTE: Replace the previous path with the directory where your Tableau Server installation is located.
5. Let's first see what connectors are currently installed by typing: _tabadmin list_webdataconnector --urls_
6. If you don’t see “_qualtrics_wdc.htm_” in the list, then we need to install the Qualtrics Web Data Connector.
7. In the same powershell window, import the web data connector: _Tabadmin import_webdataconnector “C:\\QualtricsWebDataConnector\\qualtrics_wdc.htm” --overwrite_ NOTE: Instead of C:\\QualtricsWebDataConnector, use the directory where you unzipped the files from step #2.
8. You’re done! Now try it out.
