Get Started Requirements
Self-hosted Curator CMS is a legacy offering. If you're an existing customer looking for requirements or there is another reason why you are installing locally, this is what you need to know:
Curator synchronizes with your Analytic Platforms typically through admin service accounts. We'll need to work with an administrator of each platform at your company. For Tableau we recommend using Tableau’s PATs (Personal Access Tokens). For ThoughtSpot, we recommend using SSO and an admin local user account. For Power BI, see our instructions.
To facilitate a seamless user experience, use trusted tickets or single sign-on (SSO). We recommend SAML or OAuth for SSO.
During installation, you will be prompted to connect to these systems, and our team will help with any initial configuration to help you connect Curator with these systems.
Your Curator server must be its own standalone web server. Installing on the same web server as Tableau Server is not supported.
Containerized deployments are also not currently supported.
Your Curator server will need to be able to communicate directly with your Tableau Server, and your Tableau Server will need the REST and Metadata APIs enabled.
Curator Standard/Enterprise
If you are hosting, you will need a standalone web server on which to install the software.
This can be highly customized, but plan on following minimum specifications:
