Tableau how to download data and share it to FTP location - ftp

I have a report published in the tableau server.
Is there an option to download (csv, .jpg, .pdf) and then share it to the FTP location?
Is there any work around to do the same?
Thank you.

Sure, code it in Python and use the tableauserverclient API - https://tableau.github.io/server-client-python/
Although I'm sure you've posted this question somewhere else recently and my answer was the same

VScode: how to setup for local edit and ftp-deplyment

I used to use Dreamweaver. I've a huge Classic ASP website. I edit the files on my local system, and when done, I can upload the file(s) via ftp to the remote webserver. Now, I try to switch to VSCode. I've installed ftp-simple, ftp-sync and deploy. But can't find the set-up to get a Dreamweaver like behaviour. Eg, I have to locate for each file I want to upload/deploy, the exact location in the remote file tree.
I really feel like deploy deserves more attention. I spent the past 4 days or so to find an extension that does just that. Auto-upload to an ftp-folder from a local folder. I wanted to make git work for my website, but couldn't get that to work on the server with ftp-simple or ftp-sync because those extensions only download the opened files or open in a different temporary folder each time. I set up deploy now and got exactly what I wanted thanks to your tiny comment, thank you!
(I'm sorry if this post is too old to comment on, but I browsed Stack overflow for days to find this, so I thought it might help others in the future to point this out.)
it sounds like your just missing your mapping configuration. Most text editor FTP packages include a configuration file where you specify the server, your credentials, and the root folder of your ftp server. Have you specified this?

Codeigniter Upload - File extension not allowed when uploading excel files on live server

I have allowed extensions gif/png/xls/xlsx. All of them work on local server. On live server only gif and png works no excel files.
I read about this bug in codeigniter 2.1.0 which was causing such behavior but I am using version 2.1.4. and as said it works on local server so I assume this should not be the causing problem.
That leaves me with the idea that my host account on godaddy does not allow excel uploads. But that also seems to be unreasonable to me. Does anybody have an idea? Thanks in advance.
Did you checked the extension? Please check when you post the file and check. Also check the mime config file. If the extension not found in that file add there.

Create a separate download link in Github

My Github repository has the source code and a .exe file to be downloaded and installed on Windows.
Some of my clients are getting problems because they can't identify the installer on the zip file they download.
Is there a way to create an easy download link with only some specific files of the repo?
You may want to use the API from github
You could also create a website for your clients to mainly download your files.
http://develop.github.com/p/repo.html
Ok, I'm sorry. I just find it now.
So I'll post how I did it so other may find the answer too:
You just have to click on the .exe file and on the right side (a pretty small thing for me) you'll se the option "Raw" which if you click will download the file.
I guess I was a little precipitate.

How can I automatically upload files to my live Server?

I am using WAMP for my Local Server in Windows 7. I want to upload my files from a particular folder to my Live Server automatically. Is there any freeware software or anything that will serve my purpose.
Thanks in advance for helping me.
You can use WatchDirectory to scan your defined folder and upload only if the file is edited or new file is added to the folder. You can use this for 30 Days trial period.

Approach to automatically upload updated assets to ftp

Say I need to track about 10 big files (each over 1G) over the the LAN shared folder, and if the files get modified/updated/overwritten, I need to upload those new files to ftp, and do some sort of notification like email.
But I don't need to version control for older files, so it won't inflate the repository.
How could be an easy approach to this? Since it need to keep monitoring the files, ftp protocol, email notification. Will make a C# program be a feasible way to do this? Or any suggestions? Thanks.
EDIT:
After checking around a couple version control large binaries threads in SO, it seems I don't need a version control system. Actually, I just need to keep checking the file metadata and once it's changed, upload to ftp and send out email. Not sure Mogware can disable backup old binaries?
Is there any other tools are feasible for this specific case? Thanks!
I'm in no way affiliated with the guys at Mogware, but there is a tool called "FileHamster" which is a personal revision tool, offering you to track file changes, call scripts after a file has changed etc. It also provides FTP upload.
