You can share a dashboard as an image file by using one of the following methods: Export Image on the Dashboard menu, or a dashboard export button. Export Image on the Dashboard menu allows you to export the dashboard as an image file in BMP, JPEG, PNG, or SVG format.A dashboard export button is a custom button that you can create on your dashboard to export it as an image file using a URL action

Discrete measures and discrete dimensions appear blue in Tableau. Discrete fields are those that have a finite number of distinct values, such as names, categories, or dates. Discrete fields are usually used to create headers or labels in the view. Blue fields indicate that the field is discrete. Continuous measures and continuous dimensions appear green in Tableau. Continuous fields are those that have an infinite range of possible values, such as numbers or ratios. Continuous fields are usually used to create axes or color gradients in the view.Green fields indicate that the field is continuous1

You can perform two actions when you join tables from multiple connections: add a data source filter and create an extract. A data source filter is a filter that you can apply to the data source before it is loaded into Tableau. This can help improve performance and reduce the amount of data in the view.A data source filter can be applied to any data source, including those that use cross-database joins2An extract is a snapshot of data that is stored locally on your computer or on Tableau Server. An extract can also improve performance and enable offline analysis.You can create an extract from any data source, including those that use cross-database joins3You cannot perform the other two actions when you join tables from multiple connections: create a union or use a stored procedure. A union is a method for combining data by appending rows of one table onto another table. To union your data in Tableau, the tables must come from the same connection.You cannot union tables from different data sources or connections4A stored procedure is a set of SQL statements that can be executed on a database server. Tableau does not support using stored procedures as part of a cross-database join.You can only use stored procedures with some single-connection relational data sources, such as Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, or PostgreSQL5

You can use the Color legend to access options to change a dimension's color palette, in addition to the Marks card. The Color legend shows the colors assigned to each member of the dimension in the view.You can right-click on the Color legend and select Edit Colors to open the Edit Colors dialog box, where you can change the color palette, assign specific colors to dimension members, or edit the color transparency and border6The other options are not valid ways to change a dimension's color palette. Edit in Shelf is a feature that allows you to edit the fields on the Rows or Columns shelves by typing directly on the shelf.It does not affect the color palette of the dimension7The Format menu allows you to change the appearance of various elements in the workbook, such as fonts, borders, shading, alignment, etc.It does not have options for changing the color palette of the dimension8Edit Caption is a feature that allows you to add or edit a caption for a worksheet or dashboard.It does not affect the color palette of the dimension

Treemaps use automatically generated sizes that cannot be resized by using the Marks card. A treemap is a type of visualization that shows hierarchical data as a set of nested rectangles. Each rectangle represents a dimension member and its size is proportional to a measure value. Tableau automatically calculates the size of each rectangle based on an optimal aspect ratio for readability and comparison.You cannot manually adjust the size of each rectangle by using the Marks card or any other option in Tableau10The other chart types do not use automatically generated sizes that cannot be resized by using the Marks card. Pie charts use angles to show proportions of a whole, not sizes. Histograms use bins and frequencies to show distributions of a measure, not sizes. Area charts use filled areas to show trends over time or categories, not sizes.You can adjust the size of these chart types by using the Marks card or other options in Tableau

Two use cases for creating hierarchies from the Data pane are to add drilldown functionality for fields and to organize related fields together. A hierarchy is a way of organizing data into different levels of detail. For example, a date hierarchy can have year, quarter, month, and day levels. A geographic hierarchy can have country, state, city, and zip code levels. By creating hierarchies from the Data pane, you can quickly drill down or up in a hierarchy to add or subtract more levels of detail in the view.You can also use hierarchies to group related fields together in the Data pane, making it easier to find and use them14The other options are not valid use cases for creating hierarchies from the Data pane. To concatenate all fields into a single field, you need to use a calculated field or a join, not a hierarchy.To create faster-performing queries, you need to optimize your data source, filters, calculations, or extracts, not create hierarchies

To create a simple scatter plot in Tableau, you need to have a measure on Columns and a measure on Rows. A scatter plot is a type of visualization that shows the relationship between two numerical variables. In Tableau, you can create a scatter plot by placing at least one measure on the Columns shelf and at least one measure on the Rows shelf. The measures can be continuous or discrete, but they must be aggregated.The marks in the scatter plot represent the intersection of the values for each measure1The other options are not valid ways to create a simple scatter plot in Tableau. A dimension on Detail and a measure on Columns will create a bar chart, not a scatter plot. A dimension on Columns and a measure on Rows will create a line chart or an area chart, depending on the mark type.A dimension on Columns and a dimension on Rows will create a text table or a heat map, depending on the mark type1

When you click Salt Lake City in the view, the URL action will direct you to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt+Lake+City+Car+Dropoff+City. A URL action is a hyperlink that points to a web page or other web-based resource outside of Tableau. You can use URL actions to create an email or link to additional information about your data.To customize links based on your data, you can automatically enter field values as parameters in URLs3In this case, the URL action uses https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/<Car Dropoff City> as the URL target, where <Car Dropoff City> is a field value from the view. When you click Salt Lake City in the view, Tableau will replace <Car Dropoff City> with Salt Lake City in the URL target. However, since spaces are not allowed in URLs, Tableau will encode them as + signs instead.Therefore, the final URL will be https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt+Lake+City+Car+Dropoff+City3The other options are not correct because they do not reflect how Tableau encodes field values in URL actions.
