Tableau Server and Tableau Online have settings that control whether dashboard extensions are allowed to run and whether specific extensions can access the underlying data in a dashboard.


To enable a dashboard extension on Tableau Server or Tableau Online, the server administrator or the site administrator (Tableau Online) must allow extensions for the site. The administrators can then choose to enable the default policy that allows *unknown* extensions that only request summary data to run, provided users grant the extension permission. These extensions are unknown in the sense that they have not been explicitly added to the safe list or to the blocked list on Tableau Server or Tableau Online.

If your extension requires access to full data (underlying data) the server or site administrator must add the URL of your extension to a safe list and must explicitly grant the extension access to full data. The server or site administrator can also configure whether users of your extension will see prompts requesting permission to run.

If you want to make your dashboard extension readily available to a large number of people, you can take steps to have your extension added to the [Tableau Exchange](https://exchange.tableau.com/).

Publishing your extension to the gallery means that people will be able to discover your extension, find out what it can do, and then add the extension to their dashboards, all while working within Tableau.

In addition to the requirements for all extensions to ensure security and usability, such as:
* Using HTTPS
* Validating user input
* Declaring data access requirements
* Providing a URL that customers can use to get support for your the extension

Dashboard extensions that appear in the Tableau Exchange must also:

* Follow the Design Guidelines for Dashboard Extensions (user interaction and style guidelines for user interface elements).
* Ensure that the information in the extension manifest file (`.trex`) matches the content that you will publish in the Extension Gallery. For example, the `name`, `description` fields are used to populate the name and description fields in the Extension Gallery. The icon you use in the manifest should also be the icon that is used in the gallery. You need to provide a 280x280 pixel `.png` version of the icon.

## How to Submit your Extension

After completing your extension, fill out the [Extension Gallery Submission form](https://tabsoft.co/gallerysubmit){:target="_blank"}{:ref="noopener"} with your information and extension details. The extension name in the template needs to match the name you specified for your extension in the manifest file (`.trex`). The 280x280 pixel `.png` icon that you attach with your submission must look like the icon you included in your manifest file (they just have different dimensions). Our developers from the Developer Platform team at Tableau will let you know the next steps including legal agreements after you submit. If you have any questions about the gallery please send them to [[email protected]]([email protected]){:target="_blank"}{:ref="noopener"}.
