| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 2026-07 | Billing change | Tableau Cloud adds capacity-based Viewer Blocks (unlimited viewers) | Tableau Cloud introduces capacity-based Viewer Blocks that replace per-user-per-month Viewer licensing, with no limit on Viewer accounts, starting July 2026. Starting July 2026 as an option for customers who need broader access; a deployment can use either capacity-based or role-based Viewer licensing, not both; at least one Creator license is required. | [source](https://help.tableau.com/current/online/en-us/license_product_keys.htm) | [Viz Canary](https://vizcanary.com/event/tableau-tableau-cloud-adds-capacity-based-viewer-blocks-with-unlimited-03be/) |
| 2026-05 | Packaging change | New Tableau Cloud sites default to 10 concurrent extract refreshes | From May 2026, new Tableau Cloud sites get a default of 10 concurrent extract refreshes instead of the previous 25 for qualifying sites. Applies to new sites from May 2026 (Tableau 2026.1); admins can change the default. | [source](https://help.tableau.com/current/online/en-us/cloud_manager_capacity.htm) | [Viz Canary](https://vizcanary.com/event/tableau-new-tableau-cloud-sites-default-to-10-concurrent-extract-refre-9a92/) |
| 2026-05 | Packaging change | Tableau Cloud flow resource blocks move to tenant-level allocation | Flow resource blocks are no longer auto-provisioned per site; purchased blocks are allocated at tenant level by cloud administrators from May 2026. Each site keeps one default Resource Block that cannot be moved to other sites on the tenant. | [source](https://help.tableau.com/current/online/en-us/cloud_manager_capacity.htm) | [Viz Canary](https://vizcanary.com/event/tableau-flow-resource-blocks-move-to-tenant-level-allocation-from-may-5f68/) |
