Deploying the Flow Shop Example

Before running these steps, ensure the Tableau server is running and has been configured so that Xpress Insight can access it. Ensure that Xpress Insight is configured to access the Tableau server and that the user account you have logged in as is Tableau-enabled and has a corresponding account in Tableau.

  1. Log in via the Web Client.
    Your Home page is displayed.
  2. Click Upload App.
