Ensuring the authentication method supports SAML for seamless integration with Tableau Cloud When integrating Tableau Server with an authentication method that will also be compatible with Tableau Cloud, it is essential to ensure that the method supports SAML. Tableau Cloud utilizes SAML for its primary external authentication mechanism, which facilitates seamless integration and user experience across both Tableau Server and Tableau Cloud environments. Option A is incorrect because configuring a separate VPN is not a standard requirement for integrating authentication methods with Tableau Cloud. Option C is incorrect as there is no specific version of Tableau Server exclusive to Tableau Cloud for authentication purposes. Option D is incorrect be-cause setting up a dedicated database server for authentication logs is not directly related to the integration of authentication methods with Tableau Cloud.
