One of the top questions we see in Assist involves mapping paths from an origin to a destination. Maybe this is shipping information from a warehouse to the delivery address or flights from takeoff to landing. The ability to create this in Tableau has always...
Question: I’m getting an error when I try to log into Snowflake. It says REST error and no such file or directory. How can I get connected to our new database? Looking at the images above, you may already know what’s causing the issue, but this...
Question: I’m trying to use a sheet swap toggle between two chart types, but in the layout container, the sheet is keeping space and not minimizing to the bottom of the screen. Based on the issue and the behavior Tableau was showing, my first assumption was...
Question: I’m using the NOW function to show the current date and time in an analysis I’m building for our assembly line, but when I add to my report, it’s showing me all data for all of time. How can I get this to show...
Question: I have new records in my Excel data that were not there when I created my custom groups. Tableau Desktop isn’t letting me update the group anymore. How can I make these changes so that they take effect across all my workbooks? This question...
Question: I want to only connect to certain rows in my Excel file, but I’m not seeing how to do that from Tableau. Is there a way to do this? Tableau connects to Excel as if it were a database. By default, it will connect and...
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...
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...
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...
Question: I’m building a simple report for my manager. As I add new fields into the report, the first few dimensions that I’ve added are grouping together into a single column. They are separated by commas. I’ve tried adding width to the screen, but that...
Question: I thought this would be easy and just a check somewhere, but I can’t figure out how to reverse the order of the colors. As new months are added, they go to the left. I want them on the right. What is the magic...

Question: I’m trying to remove the decimal from my report, but I’m getting unexpected results. With FLOOR or ROUND on my calculation, I still have a decimal. How can I remove it without formatting in the format menu all the time? Questions like this happen to...
Question: I know I’m doing something wrong. When building views, my alias in one view overwrites my alias in another. I know I’m missing something here. Can you fill in what I’m missing? When building reports, sometimes you need a different header name. Right-clicking the header...
Question: I’ve been making updates to our Tableau visualizations, and I can’t seem to figure out how to create a mark on the latest date. I also would like to know whether that mark is more or less than the previous date. Is this possible?...
Question: I have some de-identified data where the date is buried in different starting points within a text string. In Tableau, is there a way to find the year of participation without asking for help from my data engineers? Here’s an example of the string...
