Can Tableau and Gmail talk in both directions?

Yes. Build one flow that starts in Tableau and acts in Gmail, and a second that runs the other way, in the same project.

On our EU cloud in Frankfurt, or self-hosted on your own infrastructure with Docker or Kubernetes. The MIT-licensed core means there is always an exit.

Connect Tableau to Gmail

Move data between Tableau and Gmail the moment it happens. Build the flow visually, or let AI write it for you, then run it on our cloud or your own infrastructure.

No. Pick a trigger on either piece and an action on the other, map the fields, and turn the flow on. Add a code step later only if you want to.
