Tableau parameters to connect to HDP Hive

[#1]

I am using sandbox and wanted to connect the hive tables to the Tableau. Is there any documentation on what authentication (and other parameters) that I should be using?

Detailed step by step tutorials is here - http://hortonworks.com/hadoop-tutorial/how-to-install-and-configure-the-hortonworks-odbc-driver-on-w...

For authentication, you will be using hiveserver2, authentication mechanism as 'by name' and you can use either 'hue', 'root', or any other user that you may like.

Hopefully this helps.

ah. yes it does. Authentication by name worked. Also, thanks for the tutorial link.
