We do not offer direct support for Tableau connector in OAC.

You could consider the option of using Generic JDBC to connect to tableau, assuming tableau support jdbc connector. As documented Connect to Remote Data Using Generic JDBC you will need to setup RDG for this purpose and ensure you have the correct drivers installed to get the connection to tableau working. Generic JDBC option can be used for both rpd and self-service connection.
