Publish Data Source

It’s easier to publish, keep your data fresh, and stay connected
with the new Publish Data Source flow.

____________________________________________________________

Mobile Sign-in

mobile1

Getting started with your data should be fast, no matter where it lives or how it looks.

____________________________________________________________

Always Connected

Publish your Tableau dashboards faster. Tableau Desktop remembers your Tableau Online or Tableau Server connection and signs you in to the last server you used.

____________________________________________________________

Tableau online Sync

Sync as a Service
The Online Sync Client can be configured to be “always on” and run continuously so that your data stays fresh even when you’re signed out of the sync computer.

Easy Setup
Schedule extract refreshes right from a web browser. You’re guided through the Tableau Online Sync Client setup when you publish a data source to Tableau Online.

Notifications
Sync with confidence. The Tableau Online Sync Client notifies you if a data source needs additional information such as user credentials or an updated file path.

BAR_DATA

Getting started with your data should be fast, no matter where it lives or how it looks.

Union

union (1)

Combine data that have been split across multiple files or tables into a single Tableau data source. Excel or text-based data sources only.

Snowflake

Connect directly to Snowflake Elastic Data Warehouse. Snowflake makes it easy for any organization to scale their data and analytics on demand

____________________________________________________________

Data Grid

You can now preview Tableau extracts and Web Data Connector data sources on the Data Source page. Manage metadata there as well.

____________________________________________________________

Groups and Bins

creategroupsbins2

Now, right in the data grid, you can create groups and bins. Refine your data where you can see it.

____________________________________________________________

Join

join

When you pivot data, Tableau creates new columns. Now you can join on those columns and use these fields for new data integration and analysis.

____________________________________________________________

Data Connections

Salesforce.com OAuth Support
Use the familiar Salesforce.com sign-in experience to sign in to Salesforce.com from Tableau Desktop, Tableau Online and Tableau Server.

Tableau Parameters in Initial SQL
You can now include parameters in an initial SQL statement for a data source. This enables new scenarios, like row-level security, where users can only see the data they are authorized to see.

Initial SQL Support
Tableau now passes initial SQL commands when connecting to Oracle, Pivotal Greenplum, and Microsoft SQL Server to set session attributes.

Kerberos for Teradata and PostgreSQL
Leverage your IT investments in enterprise data security to create a seamless single sign-on flow from Tableau all the way to your database.

____________________________________________________________

Performance

On-Demand Connections
See your data faster. When viewing a published workbook, Tableau connects only to the data sources that are required to display your view instead of connecting to all data sources in the workbook.

External Query Cache
Workbook load times and interactions are faster thanks to caching. When using Tableau Data Server, the external query cache and in-memory query caches are better synchronized.

BAR-FASTEASY

Maps

High DPI

Tableau is better equipped to take advantage of high-DPI displays on Windows computers.

Separate your totals, subtotals and grand totals by excluding them from color-encoding.

Make your worksheets easier to identify and group by adding color to the sheet tabs in the sheet-sorter and filmstrip views.

Performance

Your Tableau Online and Tableau Server Dashboards load faster, thanks to fewer required panes.

Progressive Dashboard Load
Not having to wait for the entire dashboard to load means you can start analyzing your data sooner.

Smooth Tooltips
Display smooth tooltips in all Tableau Online and Tableau Server visualizations, regardless of complexity.
