When it comes to data security, you shouldn’t leave anything up to chance. We want your Curator environment to be secure and help you ensure that only those with the right permissions are accessing your sensitive information, which is why in next month’s release, we’re introducing a new feature: multi-factor authentication. The brief video below demos how MFA works within Curator:
As always, our team is continually looking for ways to make Curator more intuitive, impactful and – of course – secure. If you have any ideas of how we can improve or extend Curator to better meet your needs, feel free to reach out. Be on the lookout for more new capabilities in the October release of Curator!
Managing a self-hosted web platform can be time-consuming, costly, and complex. If you’re currently self-hosting Curator, migrating to our SaaS platform can unlock a world of advantages designed to make your analytics experience seamless and hassle-free, freeing your team to create further impact on your business.
Recently, Tableau has been encouraging the use of connected apps for external applications, instead of using trusted tickets. All of Tableau’s recent embedding features require connected apps. Since this only deals with behind the scenes authentication, there is no impact to the end user. In our effort to remain closely aligned with Tableau, Curator is transitioning to only using connected apps.
Curator has added the feature to be able to send mark commenting data to a webhook. With the widespread use of API integration platforms, this really opens the doorway to virtually unlimited use cases.
