NEW QUESTION # 41
Are animations enabled by default in Tableau?
- A. No
- B. Yes
Answer: A
Explanation:
Explanation
No, by default, animations are not enabled in Tableau.
We can animate visualizations to better highlight changing patterns in your data, reveal spikes and outliers, and see how data points cluster and separate.
Animations visually transition between filter, sort, and zoom settings, different pages, and changes to filter, parameter, and set actions. As visualizations animate in response to these changes, viewers can more clearly see how data differs, helping them make better informed decisions.
When you author animations, you can choose between two different styles: simultaneous or sequential. Here are examples of each type.
1) Simultaneous animations
The default simultaneous animations are faster and work well when showing value changes in simpler charts and dashboards.
2) Sequential animations
Sequential animations take more time but make complex changes clearer by presenting them step-by-step.
To Animate visualizations in a workbook:
1) Choose Format > Animations.
2) If you want to animate every sheet, under Workbook Default, click On. Then do the following:
For Duration, choose a preset, or specify a custom duration of up to 10 seconds.
For Style, choose Simultaneous to play all animations at once or Sequential to fade out marks, move and sort them, and then fade them in.
3) To override workbook defaults for a particular sheet, change the settings under Selected Sheet.
NEW QUESTION # 42
Suppose I have the following view. What will be the total number of marks if I drag a new measure to the row shelf vs the column shelf?
- A. If dragged to row shelf : 14 marks ; If dragged to column shelf : 7
marks - B. If dragged to row shelf : 7 marks ; If dragged to column shelf : 14 marks
- C. If dragged to row shelf : 7 marks ; If dragged to column shelf : 7 marks
- D. If dragged to row shelf : 14 marks ; If dragged to column shelf : 14 marks
Answer: A
Explanation:
This is a tricky question often asked in the exam.
If we drag a new measure to the row shelf, the following happens:
We now have 2 rows, and the same 7 columns for both these rows. Therefore, 2x7 = 14 marks!
But if we drag the same measure to the column shelf, we have just 1 row and a chart created for each of the columns. So (1x7) = 7 marks!

NEW QUESTION # 43
For creating variable sized bins we use __________________
- A. Calculated Fields
- B. Table Calculations
- C. Groups
- D. Sets
Answer: A
Explanation:
One way to view a measure in Tableau Desktop is to split it into bins. You can think of bins as buckets based on a range of values. For example, say you have a measure that represents age. Instead of aggregating the measure to calculate the average age, you can bin the measure to define age groups: 0-5, 6-10, 11-15, and so on. Then you can count the number of people in each age group.
Create a calculated field for variable bin size
Step 1
Select Analysis > Create Calculated Field.
Step 2
In the Calculated Field dialog box, complete the following steps:
NEW QUESTION # 44
How can you add color to marks in the view in Tableau?
- A. Click on Data in the main menu above, and click on choose color.
- B. In the column/row shelf, right click the field and click on edit in shelf to select the color.
- C. From the Analytics pane, drag a model to Color on the Marks card.
- D. From the Data pane, drag a field to Color on the Marks card.
Answer: D
Explanation:
To assign a color to marks in the view, do the following:
From the Data pane, drag a field to Color on the Marks card.
Tableau applies different colors to marks based on the field's values and members. For example, if you drop a discrete field (a blue field), such as Category, on Color, the marks in the view are broken out by category, and each category is assigned a color.
If you drop a continuous field, such as SUM(sales), on Color, each mark in the view is colored based on its sales value.
NEW QUESTION # 45
What is a story point in Tableau?
- A. A collection of both worksheets and dashboards
- B. A collection of dashboards
- C. A single worksheet or dashboard
- D. A collection of worksheets
Answer: C
Explanation:
Explanation
In Tableau, a story is a sequence of visualizations that work together to convey information. You can create stories to tell a data narrative, provide context, demonstrate how decisions relate to outcomes, or to simply make a compelling case.
A story is a sheet, so the methods you use to create, name, and manage worksheets and dashboards also apply to stories (for more details, see Workbooks and Sheets). At the same time, a story is also a collection of sheets, arranged in a sequence. Each individual sheet (worksheet or dashboard) in a story is called a story point.
When you share a story -for example, by publishing a workbook to Tableau Public, Tableau Server, or Tableau Online-users can interact with the story to reveal new findings or ask new questions of the data.
NEW QUESTION # 46

- A. They affect the level of detail in the view
- B. They contain contain numeric, quantitative values
- C. Dates are mostly placed in dimensions by default for relational data sources
- D. They contain qualitative values (such as names, dates, or geographical data)
Answer: A,C,D
Explanation:
Measures contain numeric quantitative values hence that option is incorrect.

True or False: LEFT JOIN returns all rows from the left table, with the matching rows in the right table
- A. True
- B. False
Answer: A
Explanation:
This is true, indeed!
The LEFT JOIN keyword returns all records from the left table (table1), and the matched records from the right table (table2). The result is NULL from the right side, if there is no match.
NEW QUESTION # 50
Is it possible to deploy a URL action on a dashboard object to open a Web Page within a dashboard rather than opening the system's web browser?
- A. NO, this is not currently possible in Tableau
- B. YES, we can do this with the help of Tableau Public
- C. YES, we can do this with the help of a Web-Page object
- D. YES, we can do this with the help of a plugin
Answer: C
Explanation:
Explanation
To interactively display information from the web INSIDE a dashboard, you can use a URL action with a web page object.
For example, you might have a dashboard that shows profits by country. In addition to showing the profit data in your dashboard, you also want to display supplemental information about the countries from a web site.
NEW QUESTION # 51
True or False: It is possible to change the Geographic Role of a dimension
- A. True
- B. False
Answer: A
Explanation:
A geographic role associates each value in a field with a latitude and longitude value.
Assigning a geographic role based on the type of location (such as state versus postcode) helps ensure that your data is plotted correctly on your map view. For example, you can assign the City geographic role to a field that contains a list of city names.
To assign a geographic role to a field:
In the Data pane, click the data type icon next to the field, select Geographic Role, and then select the geographic role you want to assign to the field.
When you assign a geographic role to a field, Tableau adds two fields to the Measures area of the Data pane: Latitude (generated) and Longitude (generated).
These fields contain latitude and longitude values and are assigned the Latitude and Longitude geographic roles. If you double-click each of these fields, Tableau adds them to the Columns and Rows shelves and creates a map view using the Tableau background map.

NEW QUESTION # 53
Which of the following is NOT a valid official data source in Tableau Desktop?
- A. PostgreSQL
- B. Google Firebase
- C. SAP HANA
- D. Amazon Redshift
Answer: D
Explanation:
Explanation
Presently, there is no official way to connect your data in Firebase directly with Tableau Desktop.
A workaround however can be to export your Firebase data into Google BigQuery, and then connect it to Tableau Desktop.
But then again, it is a workaround and not an official out-of-the-box solution.
The following are the available Data sources available as of now:
* Server
* File
NEW QUESTION # 54
What are two correct methods for creating a visual group? Choose two.
- A. Click the drop-down arrow from the top of the Data pane.
- B. Select marks in the view.
- C. Drag a dimension onto another dimension in the Data pane.
- D. Right-click a dimension in the Data pane.
Answer: B,D
Explanation:
Two correct methods for creating a visual group are selecting marks in the view and right-clicking a dimension in the Data pane. A visual group is a way of combining related members in a dimension field to create categories or segments in your data. For example, you can create a visual group by selecting several states in a map view and grouping them into regions. You can create a visual group by selecting one or more marks in the view and then clicking the group icon on the tooltip or on the toolbar. This will create a new group field in the Data pane with default names for each group based on their members. You can also create a visual group by right-clicking a dimension in the Data pane and selecting Create > Group. This will open the Create Group dialog box where you can select several members and drag them into groups with custom names8 The other options are not correct methods for creating a visual group. Clicking the drop-down arrow from the top of the Data pane will open a menu with options for creating new fields, folders, sets, bins, etc., but not groups. Dragging a dimension onto another dimension in the Data pane will create a hierarchy, which is a way of organizing data into different levels of detail, not groups9
