49Splitting, Renaming Fields, Data Type ChangesVídeo Aula
Let's delve into the core components of data preparation in Tableau: data splitting, renaming fields, and changing data types. Mastering these skills is key to simplifying your workflow as we proceed to data visualization.
We'll start by demonstrating two effective methods of data splitting in Tableau, a vital step that helps segment your data into manageable parts, making it more comprehensible and easy to manipulate. The tutorial will also guide you on how to rename fields, an essential process for enhancing clarity and making your datasets more reader-friendly.
Next, we'll dive into the all-important concept of changing data types. This often-underestimated step is critical in ensuring accurate analysis and data integrity. We'll help you grasp the difference between the types and when to use each one, grounding you in a principle that extends beyond Tableau to almost every other software you'll use as an analyst.
By the end of this video, you'll have a firm grip on these fundamental data preparation techniques. This knowledge will not only streamline your processes but also lay a solid foundation for the subsequent steps in your data visualization journey. So tune in, and let's get your data into shape!

50Live vs Extract ConnectionsVídeo Aula
Welcome to our next video where we'll be diving deep into the Live vs Extract connection types in Tableau. To explore these features, we'll be using the full paid version of the software, Tableau Desktop Professional Edition.
In this tutorial, we'll demystify what Live and Extract connections really mean. With a Live connection, Tableau is continuously linked to your data source, in our case, a CSV file. This means your visuals stay up-to-date in real time. However, as you delve into larger files, particularly those sourced online from servers or the cloud, you might experience a slowdown due to high-security measures, firewall protections as well as overall volume.
On the flip side, Extract connections capture a data 'snapshot' and generate a Hyper file, making your workbook run much more efficiently. But here's a word of caution: Extracts create a local copy of your data, which could potentially breach security policies in some organizations.
We'll also discuss how to choose the connection type that suits your needs best and navigate the potential challenges you might face. Always remember to consult with your IT department before opting for Extracts, to ensure you're within your company's guidelines. Tune in to navigate these crucial aspects of Tableau Desktop Professional Edition!

In this tutorial, we'll guide you through the step-by-step process of saving a copy of your work directly on Tableau Public. This is especially crucial for a comprehensive course like this, where recreating lost work could be a time-consuming and frustrating task.
You'll learn the nuances of saving and managing your Tableau projects on the platform, ensuring your work is always secure and ready for your next session. This tutorial is a must-watch for anyone using Tableau Public, as it provides valuable insights into preserving your hard work and avoiding any potential loss of progress.
So, don't miss out on this guide and remember: Always save your work on Tableau Public to make your data visualization journey smooth and hassle-free. Tune in, and let's get saving!

53Grouping and AliasesVídeo Aula
Let's explore the powerful features of Grouping and Aliases in Tableau. These functionalities are incredibly handy when you're looking to swiftly group combinations within fields into fresh, new fields with unique aliases.
In this video, we'll break down how to use Grouping to categorize your data in meaningful ways, creating new fields that make your data analysis more efficient. We'll also delve into the world of Aliases, demonstrating how you can rename the members of your groups to make your data more readable and informative.
While the alternative way of categorizing data might involve using an IF function, it can be a time-consuming process and not always the most enjoyable one. That's why we'll show you how leveraging the power of Grouping and Aliases can save you time and make your work with Tableau more engaging.
So, whether you're just starting out with Tableau or looking to enhance your skills, this video is a must-watch. Join us and discover how Grouping and Aliases can elevate your data analysis experience. Let's get grouping!

54Sorting - Manual - Alphabetical - FieldVídeo Aula
Get ready for our upcoming video tutorial, where we dive into the world of Sorting in Tableau - a seemingly simple technique that can significantly enhance your data visualizations.
Sorting is a critical tool when presenting data, providing clarity and focus for viewers. Imagine showing an unsorted list of countries by profit to stakeholders; it could be a challenge for them to identify key insights. However, a sorted list instantly highlights the countries with the lowest profits, making the information digestible and actionable.
In this tutorial, we'll be covering several sorting methods, from basic alphabetical and numerical sorts to more advanced techniques. We'll guide you on when and how to use each method, empowering you to present your data in the most effective and impactful ways.
So, whether you're a novice or a seasoned Tableau user, this video is a must-watch. Join us to discover how the power of Sorting can transform your data visualization journey. Let's sort it out!
