Tim, tableau prep seems great. I want to use it. But it doesn’t support the same “relationship” concept as tableau workbooks. So you have to know how to join the data… so I use prep to clean the data in multiple tables, and then let the workbook do the relationship and joining
The first video I mention explains that. Please watch that video linked in the explainer. What is Tableau ? Explained in under 10 mins! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7Jl-RwkzqQ4.html
I want to take the Tableau Certified Data Analyst exam but have never used Tableau before. On their site they recommend taking Tableau Fundamentals before taking TDA101 which is the Data Analyst Certification class. I am trying to find other resources that can replace taking the Tableau Fundamentals class, which includes all the topics below. Any suggesting on the best resource(s) to learn the list of topics below?

Hi Tableau Tim, I've been scouring RU-vid to find an answer to a question I have and I came across your video, however, I'm not sure that Tableau Prep is the solution. My question is: if I have 10 reports and they all contain the same 'ITEM; subquery, is there a way for me to store this single subquery in Tableau and have each of my 10 reports reference a single source to run this subquery? So rather than run that subquery 10 times for the10 different reports, the subquery only refreshes once a day and my 10 reports reference the same subquery that has been refreshed.
Tableau prep can do this if you just bring in your entire data source and filter what you neeed. Have the prep run on a schedule and create a single data source for Tableau. Very standard use case for tableau prep.
I have a column in tableau with text responses from customers (Feedbacks), now if I want to create a Word frequency out of that column, what should be my approach? Is there any calculation in Tableau, or do i need to use Prep in some way
Sorry are you referencing a column in the video use a time stamp if possible. In general you can use regex if you’re just counting the number of times a word appears but a word cloud would need data prep. Worth a Google. A bit beyond the topic of this video.
Thats the idea. It's a different much faster way of doing the same thing. You can still use SQL if you want to or need to but this is a more accesible way for someone who for example doesn't know sql to do many of the same things.
I've been making them for Tableau so haven't had time to work on my on. www.tableau.com/en-gb/covid-19-coronavirus-data-resources to see some of them . I do have plans to make this far more engaging though so stay tuned. they just take alot of time and being a dad ( recent change ) takes priority.
How can i connect with you pls. My data is not comimg on tableau desktop worksheet version from flow . I can call or email to discuss this issue. What is 1 o 1 tutoring cost pls
