Question: I’m only seeing export options for PDF, CSV or PNG. I’m needing a way to export a workbook to a share drive for access by our Creators. Is there an automated way to do this? I’m tired of downloading to my machine only to...
So far in this series, we’ve laid a foundation for the analytics conversation, and we’ve discussed descriptive, or type 2, analytics. Now, we’re going to dive deeper into how we can apply this in more advanced contexts. The second type of analytics is all about building...
Question: Our users are finding themselves clicking the same filters when they log onto dashboards they have access to. They are curious if there is a way for us to isolate the data for them only. How can we accomplish this without changing our data...
Question: I’m building a public dashboard and want to get a “Contact Us” link on the screen. How do I make the email pop up? Adding the ability for your end user to reach back out to you via your dashboard is a great way to...

This past week, Tableau hosted channel and technology partners at their headquarters in Seattle, Washington, for their annual Partner Executive Kick-Off. This event serves as an excellent opportunity to discuss the successes of the previous year and plan for the coming year. Being a Tableau...
Like many non-native Oklahomans, one of my greatest fears upon moving to the Sooner State was the threat of tornados. After almost five years, that fear has mostly subsided for a number of reasons: the storm shelter in my garage, the weather app on my...
People like knowing when they share the popular opinion or when they’ve found some undiscovered gem. Sometimes it confirms that they are a normal member of society. Other times, it gives them bragging rights as a trendsetter. One new way Portals for Tableau enables this obsession...
Question: I need to add more than 16 columns to my sheet. How is this possible? Let me start by saying that this is not recommended by InterWorks. If we are using this many rows or columns to create a crosstab view, there is likely a...
Tableau is constantly evolving. It does not chimera itself into a beast with three heads, wings, a tail, 16 arms, scales and a blowhole. Rather, it stays true to itself while making itself stronger and better aligned for its target market. Set actions are a...
“I’ve filtered my countries to show me my top 10 by sales. However, I still want to see the information for England in the table and maybe Italy as well. Is there any way I can force these two to show up, as well as...

When you were in school, did you have pages and pages of your notebook filled up with different variations of your name? Maybe you prefixed it with Dr. Maybe you changed your last name to that of your crush. Maybe you were trying to find...
Question: I’ve published my data source to Server and set the refresh schedule, but the refresh keeps failing with the error message “Connectionless Failure.” What am I missing here to get this working? I’ve seen this message many times over the years. It’s more generic than...
You love Portals for Tableau, so much so that you wish it were easier to get to it on your smartphone. You long for the experience that comes with just tapping a button on your home screen to launch it like many of your other...
I often find myself building dashboards with a parameter to compare baseline data to different scenarios. Because these scenarios are built out in different worksheets, I am faced with the challenge of correctly displaying changes in results compared to each other. In the mocked-up example...
