Which of the following is a benefit of using a Tableau Data Source (.tds)?

  1. To hold one or more worksheets, plus zero or more dashboards and stories.
  2. To not contain the actual data but rather the information necessary to connect to the actual data as well as any modifications you've made on top of the actual data such as changing default properties, creating calculated fields etc
  3. To create a single zip file that contains a workbook along with any supporting local file data and background images. This is great for sharing your work with others who don't have access to the original data.

2) .twbx ( Tableau packaged workbook) - To create a single zip file that contains a workbook along with any supporting local file data and background images. This is great for sharing your work with others who don't have access to the original data.

3) Extract (.hyper or .tde) To create a local copy of a subset or entire data set that you can use to share data with others, when you need to work offline, and improve performance.

3) (.twb) Workbooks To hold one or more worksheets, plus zero or more dashboards and stories.

Which of the following is a compelling reason to export a sheet in Tableau to a PDF?

  1. If we want a static view of the visualisation.
  2. If we want to use filters in the visualisation.
  3. If we want to interact with the visualisation.
  4. If we want to dynamically enter parameters to the visualisation.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Exporting the visualisation gives us a static view of the visualisation.

It is NOT possible to interact with it, use filters, or dynamically enter anything in a visualisation exported PDF.

In Tableau Desktop, you can save views as PDF files rather than printing them as hard copies. You do not need to have Adobe Acrobat installed on your computer.
When you print an individual sheet to PDF, filters in the view are not included. To show filters, create a dashboard containing the sheet and export the dashboard to PDF. (IMPORTANT)
