- Tableau core-based licensing includes no Creator seats but allows a Guest User
- Tableau Server Administrators always consume the highest role available
- Tableau feature licenses must cover every user or all cores in the deployment
- Tableau license editions cannot be mixed within a deployment
- Tableau Embedded Analytics licenses cannot share an environment with full-use licenses
- Core-based Tableau Servers need at least four Resource Cores for Data Management
