Alma

Session Description

Many Ex Libris customers use Tableau Software for business intelligence. Tableau provides a way to visualize data from various sources. In April of 2017 Ex Libris announced the availability of an open source Web Data Connector (WDC), which provides a mechanism to connect Tableau to Alma data via the Alma Analytics API.

This session will demonstrate the process for connecting Tableau to the Alma Analytics API using the ExLibris WDC, and provide examples of Tableau visualizations (vizzes) that are based on data obtained through the WDC connection. Participants will leave the session with a basic understanding of the requirements for moving their Alma Analytics data into Tableau visualizations.
