Why do I have to select the number of Tableau users? Merlijn Buit 2018-10-11T13:23:14+01:00

Why do I have to select the number of Tableau users?

We calculate the average amount of concurrent connections based on the amount of Tableau users you select.

We count the number of active connections per extension to our extensions server. We call this concurrent connections. Do you use the same extension twice on a dashboard? This will count for 2 concurrent connections. Do you open this dashboard in 2 tabs? This will count for 4 concurrent connections.
