Even though 2020 has made staying connected to a supportive community a tough puzzle to solve, people are continuing to find a way, and one group that proves their determination and creativity in spades is the Tableau community. Since the global pandemic has changed our plans...
2020 has been filled with unexpected surprises. From the global pandemic we find ourselves in to the disappearance of the business travel I had grown to love, the way this year has wrapped up was not at all expected. While the days of traveling to...
We recently partnered with Tableau to give a couple of talks called the Tableau Performance Series. In our first webinar, we talked about what to look for in Tableau Desktop to improve performance, and we finished out with a presentation on Tableau Server itself and...
Another month, another virtual Lunch & Learn in the books! This time, we discussed row-level security in Tableau Desktop. Row-Level Security in Tableau Desktop Row-level security allows you to filter out data from your dashboards based on the user profile accessing your data. This may sound a...
Question: I need to script tabcmd commands but can't leave passwords in plaintext inside scripts! How can I script tabcmd commands securely? The Challenge Tabcmd requires a username and a password passed to it in order to log into a Tableau Server site. While this is fine...
To my surprise, the question of how to manipulate Grand Totals in Tableau arises quite frequently. Most times when it comes to Grand Totals, it is about tinkering with a table or plot so that it will show the most valuable output for the user....
Question: I renewed my subscriptions in Tableau Server, but my licenses no longer show on the server following the old key expiring. However, I see the new key in my customer portal. What happened? We’ve seen this question come across the Assist desk a few times...

Data is rarely perfect, and we know preparation matters – badly prepared data risks being slow or inaccurate. In an ideal world, we’d build our data prep into the data source or in something like Tableau Prep, providing a consistent (and likely faster) data source...
Recently, one of my colleagues had an interesting issue with a client’s request. The client they were working with was getting a file in a specific structure from their source system. This file was, of course, only available as an Excel export. For simplicity’s sake,...

Running multiple flows every day from your computer and opening them one by one is a method that’s far from perfect. The reason why we put work into implementing more robust solutions than copy-paste between Excel workbooks was to cut the time on manual, repetitive...
Recently, a client question came up as they were about to make the switch from Core licensing to role-based licensing. The client had their new license keys—it was just a matter of sorting through all the logistics of such a change, like what steps to...
