Trusted IP and hostname

Open GioPat opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

I have a pod that is requesting a trusted token to the Tableau pod. Since pods are ephemeral and the IP will likely change often, what do I put in the field for the whitelisted sources for the trusted authentication? Would be perfect if Tableau accepted a CIDR instead of a static IP, unfortunately, that's not the case.

Hi @GioPat, thank you for bring this up. I was wondering if this article describes the scenario that you're working with? https://help.tableau.com/current/server/en-us/trusted_auth.htm

If not, could you please point me to an article that describes something related to the trusted token since I'm not too familiar with it? Thank you.

Hello @annievan2000 ! I was able to find an elegant solution at the end by adding an headless service and whitelisting the hostname! now seems to works like a charm!

False alarm, tableau seems not to resolve every time the trusted url request but rather every time restarts / changes the config hardcodes the current IP of the configuration...
