    Function configureTableauExtension

    • Run the configuration dialog the extension's Configure menu opens.

      Call it from the page at configureUrl. It renders one labelled editor for the options JSON, checks what the author typed with the same parser the extension uses, saves it with the workbook, and closes. A setting that does not parse is never saved: the message goes to an alert beside the editor, the editor is marked invalid, and focus goes back to it.

      Parameters

      Returns Promise<boolean>

      A promise that settles once the dialog is on screen, or false when there is no Extensions API or it would not initialize.
