Supported Versions

Tableau provides maintenance (e.g. minor release updates and defect fixes) and technical support (e.g., troubleshooting, customer forums) in accordance with its technical support policies. Maintenance and technical support for our products are generally available for a limited time:

  • For all versions of Tableau Desktop and Tableau Server, maintenance (along with full technical support) is provided for 24 months following the version release. You can check for any issues with our current supported versions on our Known Issues page.
  • Technical support is only provided during the same period as maintenance. Limited support is also provided for an additional 12 months after, which solely consists of assistance with online product documentation and/or limited troubleshooting for issues encountered while upgrading to the latest version of the product.
  • We may cease to allow download of versions that are outside of the maintenance window. We may also remove support resources at the end of technical support.
  • If Tableau identifies a security vulnerability in a version that currently falls within the maintenance window, we may cease to allow download of that version prior to the end of maintenance or end of support dates listed below. For an example, see Apache Log4j2 vulnerability. After the end of maintenance and technical support, no code defects can be investigated, and so it is highly recommended customers upgrade to a maintained version as soon as possible.

After the end of limited support, customers should upgrade to a maintained version before contacting Tableau Technical Support for assistance.

Tableau Prep

Although the version numbers look similar, Tableau Prep’s approach to versioning and maintenance is different from Tableau Server and Desktop’s “branched release” approach.

Tableau Prep uses a mainline release approach, with both new features and all fixes to date in one new Prep release that is delivered at a time, similar to software like Chrome and Firefox. Problems with Prep should be tested in the most recent release to make sure the issue has not already been fixed. Fixes for Prep issues are always delivered cumulatively in a new release, never ‘backported’ to an older ‘maintenance release’ of an older version branch, because there are no old branches to backport fixes to.

Because of this, we always recommend updating to the latest version of Prep to take advantage of those new features and fixes. If you are a customer experiencing an issue with Prep, please try updating to the latest version before reaching out to Tableau Technical Support, as this will always be the first troubleshooting step provided. You can also check our Known Issues page to see if there are any related reported issues for the current version.

Tableau Mobile

Similar to Tableau Prep, described above, Tableau Mobile does not follow Tableau Server and Desktop’s “branched release” approach. Mobile maintenance releases, including new features and fixes, will occur only on the latest release of the product. As such, we always recommend updating to the latest version of Tableau Mobile. If you are a customer experiencing an issue with Mobile, please try updating to the latest version before reaching out to Tableau Technical Support, as this will always be the first troubleshooting step provided. You can also check our Known Issues page to see if there are any related reported issues for the current version.

Tableau Bridge

Tableau Bridge is a proxy client that runs on a machine in your network and is used to connect your private network data to Tableau Cloud. Because it requires installation, there are version releases just like Server and Desktop. However, in order to take advantage of the latest security and feature updates, you should always upgrade to the latest version of the Bridge client from the Tableau Bridge Releases page.

If you are a customer experiencing an issue with Bridge, please try updating to the latest version before reaching out to Tableau Technical Support, as this will always be the first troubleshooting step provided. You can also check our Known Issues page to see if there are any related reported issues for the current version.
