Thanks for this course and all your other work! I was able to pass my certification exam in large part due to studying this video and some of your others. You are an excellent teacher and I look forward to learning more from you as my Tableau skills grow.
For the past 4 months, I've been trying to understand most of the things that you just made me understand in less than 4Hrs. I wish you knew how much I appreciate you sir! I want to be like you when I grow up !!
Glad I could help and i appreciate you stopping by to say thanks ! keep pushing. Hopefully the world of Tableau is now easier to navigate.
Tim, you are so good, you can even teach a cat with that gentle voice and great ability to cut through the noise and get to the point.
You're the man! I needed a crash refresher. I've used this but not too much, but I want to get more into data analysis. GREAT vid here. Thank you.
I love the way to break things down... You are a great teacher!
Loved the video, you've covered everything that I have been trying to figure out and simplified it.
This was the first video I've watched for Tableau & I loved it! Checked some other videos and none of them come close to wonderfully you've explained everything. Thanks a lot Tim. Subscribed to your channel and will watch other videos as well.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you Tim🙏🏼 what an incredible valuable resource you have created!
Thank you for this, Tim. Nicely explained, understandable, easygoing tone of voice, good clear explanations etc. Well done!
This tutorial is excellent, your carisma really makes easier to follow what you are doing and doesnt overwhelm at all.
Great Work!
This is a labor of love. Great work and congrats on getting this published!
Thank you!
this is amazing! you are an excellent teacher!
Rarely comment on TH-cam but I had no other option. Such a brilliant resource Tim! Amazing work! Subscribed
Thanks for this one Tim. Will share as well 👍🏻
Real Time Examples. Pretty Useful.
What an amazing teacher you are Tim! You presented this 3:44-hour video without even looking like you were bored. :), so you kept my attention the whole time. The structure of the material is so good, you guide us step by step, sharing useful tricks. I'm glad I found your channel, I don't want to learn Tableau from anyone else.:) Well, maybe from your recommended friend. Thank you for your great work on behalf of the students!
Thank You so much! Starting my Business Analytics course and I am certain that this will help me a lot.
wow!!! immediate subscribe. Thank you for this Tim.
very very awesome teaching.....wish you had vids of more different applications like MYSQL 😍😍😍

Aha. Thanks!
Ttttiiiiiiiimmmmmmmmmm!!!!
You're doing god's work.

Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks!
Awesome video! Thank you!
So happy you finished this! An advanced user playlist might be kinda cool too ;)
We’ll get there ;)
@@TableauTim your data scaffolding trick for example! I shared that one with a bunch of people. It’s such a helpful trick when you are dealing with production data and have to know all these tricks.
You know...ive not thought about it before now but putting day, month, year makes much more sense than month, day, year. The US just wants to be unique so bad that theyll make things harder on themselves to achieve it lol.
Thanks a lot. Very helpful.
You're welcome!
Thank You so much for making it so easy tutorial! May be you can also add a tutorial on dashboard layout understanding
Yeah i have several videos already on my channel. but i think theres definately room on a crash course for layout.
The most important reason all of the companies I worked for continued to use tableau was the user wanted to export the data. 😅 once they resolved that issue, got rid of it and moved to power bi!
Super helpful video, thank you for putting out so much clear information! I take the TDS in a few days... do you have any suggestions for how else to prepare?
How’d the exam go? Sorry I didn’t reach out in time
I finally found something useful
Most of the videos i found on youtube only talks about how to download, not to use
Really appreciate the crash course. Will it be possible to have an advanced / intermediate tableau course ?
Yes 🙌 sort of
Hello Tim, thank you for all the knowledge you are sharing to us .
How to do this use case.
There is sales , prediction time, profit and vendor fields in a sheet . So if I click any metric in profit column then it should goto profit sheet , if I click on any metric of vendor column then it should go to list of vendors sheet and so on
You want to investigate Dashboard actions. you can set them to navigate.
Was that a really dry mocking of Windows at 33:30 or did he really not realize he was on a windows machine LoL. If the former, well played amigo. Well played...
I was remote desktoping into my pc from my Mac hence I thought I was on a Mac. Usually Mac version takes longer than PC version as Apple silicon is not natively supported so there’s emulation that takes place.
Hi Tim, which are the videos that would help me with my tableau desktop specialist exam? thank you.
I’ve done videos on the exam which are old but you can just search the videos on TH-cam and you’ll find them.
Am just about ½-way thru so far, but this is *excellent!* I'm sure many other people will also value your explanation of all the Tableau products, because they're quite confusing for newbies. (Just one of so *many* confusing things about Tableau!)
I especially liked your explanation of extracts (at 1:11:47). Really helpful!
Recently I've come across a feature that seems to be undocumented - except in the forums! 😥Namely, for most (not all) calculated fields, I get an Edit Copy command instead of Edit, which really messes things up. I have a theory that it may be due to switching to an extract. (I routinely connect to data sources published on Tableau Server without any issues. But lately, occasionally this Edit Copy issue crops up, and it's a big problem.)
Do you know of any resources that talk about what causes Edit Copy to show up? And about how to avoid it? Thanks!
yeah i cover this in my video about published extracts. It's a feature request that has been updated but in short if your using a published extract in a workbook, Tableau views the author of the published extract as the only person who can change formula definitions and so it shows you an option to edit a copy because there might be others also using the same data source to do different things. In an ideal world you should be able to create workbook specific variants of the formula and then track that through metadata with a prompt explaining this.
Feature modification: th-cam.com/video/tnIc0eIoIvI/w-d-xo.html but realised my video on published extracts might not exists and I'm imagining something i had planned to make. I'll get on the case.
@@TableauTim Thanks so much Tim! (There is th-cam.com/video/P_FwfkEC9Z0/w-d-xo.html, but looks like it's about local extracts only. There are just so many _options_ in Tableau!)
Tableau writing SQL in background thats why techno. behind this vizQl.
Can you pass the Tableau desktop specialist exam by studying the material in this video?
i dont know if its because we're in a new version or something but since the beginning, my datasets were in double cylinder, which means they're since beginning in extract and i didnt need to save anything on premise
Yeah sound like they were extracts already in some way or form. If you right click you find the option to remove the extract and you’ll see what the data is stored
Hey Tim is there a way to add a reference line to the categories within each bar chart? For example, average of the first-class shipping mode? Or does this not work since each bar is set at a different height?
Yes thats possible. In reference line settings you just have to choose whether it’s the cel pane or whole table that you’re referring too.
@@TableauTim Thank you, I appreciate your feedback. I started a finance analytics internship specifically focusing on our company's Global Supply Chain Logistics department about a week and a half ago. Your videos have been a huge help as my mentor uses tableau heavily. Thank you very much for your knowledge and I will continue to support and reference your channel.
Hi Tim, about your question on ESDALT meaning, it could be Extract, Select, Download All Latest Tableau versions. What do you think?
I think there’s a comment somewhere here that says it’s Enterpise something something ahah
About the database, is this something that has to be built beforehand or is there a quick recourse to follow along with the video?
Data sources usually exist beforehand but you can point tableau to an excel File
Why can't I save this to my playlists :(
Thanks! As far as passing the certification do you think it necessary to pay Tableau for the guided study?
No I don’t think so there’s an exam prep guide just work through that and find videos online or blogs and it will be far more valuable.
Thanks Tim. I don't see the accelerators in my open pane. Where do I find the templates you mentioned
You might be on a version before accelerators was implemented
Unable to download your resources im stuck in a loop between viewing the file and go to file....
Hi.. please put a data links sample superstore data I could not find in the links that you ve mentioned in description. Please
It’s a GitHub link in the description of the video. Please read the description in full. It’s all there.
the repository file is not showing for the tableau public
Accelerators, that doesnt come up on my tableau desktop or tableau public accounts or versions (OS)
That's expected. Tableau public doesn't have accelerators. Only the main paid version. Aceelrators connected to data sources that require the pro version.
@@TableauTim Thank you,
also noticed that the dataset you used is no longer available on Kaggle. Others with the same name have a different schema was hoping to follow along with the same one do you have another link to same dataset with same schema
yes in the video if you keep watching, I highlight the links are in t he description. There's a github repo with everything you need there. I always put resources in the description you just have to read through and check it first and if I haven't, the native data source in tableau is what I'm using so I don't need to provide it. Generally I've also made this so you can follow along with your own data source.
Ps if you watch on mobile the description might be hidden but its usualy just above the comments section but collapsed. Anyways this is my github. just browse through to tableau and you'll see the crash course folder and my workbook. github.com/timngwena/tableautim_tutorials/tree/main
@@TableauTim watched from my Mac book. Thank you for your responses much appreciated. Will check out your Guthub repository
How to connect database by tableau public users
You can’t that’s a paid feature for desktop
@2:46:00
Hi tim
can you pls tell how to save the sheets in tableau desktop?
Sheets are part of the workbook. When you save the workbook the sheets are saved too. You can export sheets as bookmarks. th-cam.com/video/nX3fY2UpuR8/w-d-xo.html
Wow Tim. Tableaus dad
Bad? Dead? What you trying to say aha.
@@TableauTim I mean it how I said it. You're like Tableaus father haha. The training vids on the site aren't this good.
can we change the size of the pie chart to make it larger?
Marks lane size or put the sheet in your dashboard and resize.
@2:02:16
your small circle video is interrupting at bottom right corner , how to remove it?
You can't thats how i make all videos on my channel. :D
I dont have any of these databases saved from the app download..how do i find these or are they not available with the 2023 version????
If you’re using tableau public they won’t show as that’s the free version.
Why did the pie looked same to me before and after applying the sales on angle
Good question. The percentages are ever so slightly different
How much do Tableau jobs pay you? And is it guaranteed to get a job if I do this course? Thanks
This course. no its a "crash course" its aimed at people who are being asked to do too much with Tableau in little time and they dont have time to sit through a multi day course or pay a ton to get what I've squeezed into 4 hours here. Tableau is a sought after job yes but it wont just be Tableau you need to learn a ton of skills beyond this. Ive made a video called how to learn Tableau that covers this.
i need your help. how can i reach you
Shifting from powerbi to tableau, watching my first tutorial, one and a half hour in, but still no sign of data model or connections between tables. Getting frustrated.
I wont cover that in this basic course I have a whole series on the data model as separate videos you can get stuck into. Could easily make a course 5 hours long just on data connections across desktop and Prep. Also check out @sqplbelle she has great course like tutorials on the data model.
@@TableauTim Really sorry for my earlier comment, it was very rude. I really appreciate the work you are doing and you must know that this world needs a lot more people like you.
What I actually wanted to say was requesting you to make a video for people who are trying to switch from powerbi to tableau, like all you need to know in one video type. Thanks for your compassionate response.
We done
How I can reach out to you?
Thanks
Hassan
You just did.
There is no option for tableau extract on tableau public
There is on Tableau Public Desktop. its the only way you can save a workbook with data in tableau Public. On the web version the extract is automatically created so you dont see the option.
Hi Tim
Unable to find the EU Supermarket.xls file.
In the description of the video is a link to the resources in GitHub. Please expand the description on TH-cam.
@@TableauTim thanks Tim. Actually you have informed about the data source later in the video.
Going good with the course. Hope could make it up to some level.
By the way thanks for the video.
Весёлый чувак, я бы выпил с ним.
FYI you spelt dashboard wrong in the thumbnail Tim
Aha thanks ! This one gets me all the time.
@@TableauTim no problem, bigger things to worry about I'm sure! Loving your videos, keep them up
Didn't think "spelt" was a word until I looked it up as a UK English variant. Woh!
I am not able to download the data
What error do you get?
@@TableauTim Well i cannot view the raw via GitHub through laptop and while doing the same process from phone it is showing " can't open the file".
Yes you’re supposed to download the source folder on GitHub.you also can’t build dashabords from your phone so ideally you’d be doing this on a desktop if your following along.
Can you teach me?
That’s what this video is
If I have questions about the content. Can I message you?
@@janjob9127 Not privately. I can't possibly reply to everyone 1 to 1 given the view count. Reply here in the comments and you might ask a question that helps everyone and I 'll reply here like I have been
2:23:56 IQR is a stats calculation that gives you outliers. Outliers being items in a set that can distort the standard distribution, averages, and everything else... Think about getting the average income for everyone in a room that has Jeff Bezos in it... he's way outside of the norm, and the average will look strange. Turning that off plots every point inside the box and whisker plot.
Thank you for the detail … and the super thanks!
Kindly enunciate your words more clearly if possible. If I'm following along, I often have to go back and listen again to what you just said because I've not caught it and that's not ideal.
I have to say it was a live stream, recorded live no editing and done in one take. I do my best and captions exist.
@@TableauTim Enunciation is not something one can correct through editing. Plus what use are captions if I'm following along in another tab and listening to your video? Sorry for providing constructive feedback I guess.
@@federica4829 you able to give a timestamp of a moment where youre having issues? you can just type it out 1:11 as an example of a way to do this.
@@federica4829 ps you can fix enunciation in post. We live in crazy times! I think your pulling issue with the sound mixing potentially dampening my voice as i move closer to the mic and it gets louder so it attempts to stop it being too loud by muffling the volume.
*Promosm*
Why did you not tell anything regarding union,relationship,joins properly at all. I am disappointed ☹️ as i was asked in an interview
I have many videos about this and I do cover that in this video it would have been twice as long most people didn’t want a video longer.
I also have 470 videos one 30 minute one on relationships and it sounds like you know what you need to google so you’ll find several videos I’ve made alongside countless others. I don’t work for you / make videos for just you. If you watched my video and hoped it’s all you needed to pass an interview then I don’t think you paid attention to what I said throughout the course. I also think if you’d googled “10 concepts I need to know about tableau for an interview ” you would have known this alongside other topics to prepare for an interview. This video isn’t titled “tableau Interview crash course” it’s just tableau desktop. Please hold yourself responsible for not prepping for your interview. I have a video titled how to prepare for a tableau interview. Ironically it covers unions and joins as a topic.
Very slow start. Very confusing about how and what to download. I wish he'd get to the point more quickly.
Sorry it’s too slow. Other videos move much faster you’re welcome to find others. I choose my pace for many people who also are starting out in analytics. Sounds like you’re looking for something faster paced. Tableau have some great webinars and classroom sessions (paid of course) that can solve that.
Still trying to figure out what version of Tableau he's using? When do we get to follow along and actually learn tableau as opposed to listening to this dude's tableau philosophy?
I do explain versions if you hang in there 😅
I don't think tableau people realize how confusing they are talking about public and download etc!!?? This dude's switching computers and not explaining things well
“Tableau people” 🤣 … You don’t have to suffer if you’re not enjoying it. Feel free to turn it off. This was live stream so it’s not a classroom course. If you want something more focussed there’s paid content on udemy that hits that mark much faster. 🙌🏾
Thanks!
🤩 woah thanks for the super thanks.
