Why teams connect Clari and Tableau

Put live Clari data behind every dashboard and cohort in Tableau, and write the segments and scores Tableau computes back onto the Clari record — one connection, not a nightly export.

Tableau is a read-only source: Stacksync reads its data in real time and delivers it into Clari, so Clari always reflects the current state of Tableau — without exports, scripts, or schedulers.

Tableau turns data into dashboards, cohorts, and metrics; Clari is where customers, contacts, deals, and activity actually live and change. The two meet wherever a number is really about a specific account, segment, or stage — yet most teams feed the CRM into analytics as a nightly extract or a hand-maintained connector, so the reporting lags the business and can't be sliced by the customers and segments that matter.

Stacksync syncs Opportunities, Activity (Capture), Account field extensions, Opportunity field extensions from Clari into Tableau field by field and within seconds, so every dashboard and cohort runs on current records instead of a stale copy. Because the connection runs both ways, the cohorts, scores, and metrics computed in Tableau write back to fields in Clari, landing where the people working accounts can see them. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • 01 Mirror the Projects and Workbooks content hierarchy into an internal catalog so teams discover dashboards from a central index.
  • 02 Track Extract Refresh Tasks and DatasourceRefreshFailed webhook events to raise alerts in a database or ticketing system when refreshes fail.
  • 03 Enrich Clari Account records with firmographic or billing data points through the ingest API in incremental mode.
  • 04 Stream Audit Events into a reporting database to monitor forecast-submission changes and user activity for compliance.

Common sync patterns

Report on live CRM data

New records and status changes in Clari appear in Tableau within seconds, so dashboards and cohorts track the current pipeline rather than last night's export.

Where Clari accepts updates: segments and scores back on the record

Cohorts, scores, and computed metrics from Tableau sync onto fields in Clari, putting the analysis where reps and owners actually work the accounts.

One customer across analytics and CRM

The same account or person is keyed consistently in both systems, so a profile or row in Tableau lines up with the contact or account in Clari.

What you can sync between Clari and Tableau

Representative objects on each side — any object or custom field can map to any target. Schemas are auto-detected; types are converted between the two systems.

Clari objects Tableau objects How this pairing syncs
Opportunity field extensions Warehouse-computed fields pushed onto Opportunity records via the ingest API; up to 100 records per request or 10MB bulk files. Fields and Columns Columns and calculated fields with their descriptions, exposed by the Metadata API; read to populate a data catalog with governed definitions. Opportunity field extensions is specific to Clari and Fields and Columns to Tableau — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Audit Events User edits and system events exported with filtering by actor, session, and date range; read-only feed for change tracking and compliance. Published Data Sources Published data sources (.tdsx); their underlying rows are read via the VizQL Data Service, and refresh state is tracked through content webhooks. Audit Events is specific to Clari and Published Data Sources to Tableau — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Forecast Exported per forecast tab and fiscal period via async jobs; includes submitted forecast calls, updates, manager adjustments, and CRM totals. Read-only. Workbooks Workbook content and metadata read via the REST and Metadata APIs; create, update, and delete events fire webhooks for change detection. Forecast is specific to Clari and Workbooks to Tableau — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Quota Quota and quota-history values exported alongside forecast data, scoped by fiscal quarter; read-only, useful for warehouse attainment reporting. Views Worksheets and dashboards inside workbooks; their data and crosstab export as CSV via the REST query-view-data endpoint. Quota is specific to Clari and Views to Tableau — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Opportunities Retrieved synchronously by ID from GET /opportunity (up to 100 IDs per call) with Clari CRM scoring and field-change history; read-only, mirroring the CRM opportunity Clari sits on. Projects Folders that organize content and set permissions; listed via REST to mirror the site's content hierarchy into a catalog. Opportunities is specific to Clari and Projects to Tableau — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.
Activity (Capture) Meetings, emails, and attachments captured by Clari and mapped to accounts and opportunities; exported read-only via async activity jobs. Users Site users with site roles and group membership; read via REST for access reviews and to reconcile identities against an HR or IdP source. Activity (Capture) is specific to Clari and Users to Tableau — each maps to any object or custom field on the other side.

How changes propagate between Clari and Tableau

Each direction of the sync is driven by what the source system can signal and what the destination accepts — detection, delivery, and expected latency below.

Clari Tableau Interval-based propagation

DetectionStacksync polls Clari for changes on an incremental schedule, reading only records changed since the previous pass. Polling — reads run as asynchronous export jobs (submit export, poll job status, download results).

DeliveryTableau does not accept inbound record writes, so this direction carries requests rather than records: Tableau's output flows back as field updates on the originating Clari records.

Tableau Clari Sub-second propagation

DetectionTableau notifies Stacksync of record changes through webhook events. Webhooks fire on workbook and data source create/update/delete and extract refresh events.

DeliveryEach detected change is written to Clari through its API, with automatic retries and rate-limit backoff.

Rate-limit considerations

  • Clari: Max 3 concurrent exports and roughly 1000 exports per rolling 30-day org window; ingestion capped at 100 requests/sec per API token.
  • Tableau: Tableau Cloud enforces per-site REST rate limits and returns HTTP 429; a PAT allows only one concurrent session and expires after 15 consecutive days of non-use.

How the Clari and Tableau connectors work

Clari

Integration surface
REST APIs on api.clari.com - Export API (v4, asynchronous bulk jobs for forecast, quota, activity, and audit) and Ingest API (v2, field extensions); Opportunity reads are synchronous via GET /opportunity
Authentication
API token in the apikey header, generated per user in Settings; ingest/partner endpoints also require a partnerkey header, and Copilot endpoints require X-Api-Key and X-Api-Password
Change detection
Polling — reads run as asynchronous export jobs (submit export, poll job status, download results); the ingest API supports an incremental mode for regular field updates. No webhooks.
Capabilities

Rate limits
Max 3 concurrent exports and roughly 1000 exports per rolling 30-day org window; ingestion capped at 100 requests/sec per API token.

Tableau

Integration surface
REST API, Metadata API (GraphQL), and VizQL Data Service
Authentication
Sign-in via Personal Access Token (PAT) or username/password returns a credentials token sent as the X-Tableau-Auth header; Connected Apps issue JWTs for OAuth-style access. One active session per PAT.
Change detection
Webhooks fire on workbook and data source create/update/delete and extract refresh events; otherwise content and metadata are polled via REST list endpoints (updatedAt) and the Metadata API.
