Question 1

You create a dashboard that tracks your teams progress on various projects. On the dashboard, you want to display your company's web page. Which dashboard element should you use?



Answer : D

To display your company's web page on a Tableau dashboard, you should use a web page object. The web page object allows you to embed a web page within your Tableau dashboard, providing direct access to external web content.

Open your Dashboard: Start by opening the dashboard where you want to add the web page.

Add Web Page Object: In the Objects section of the dashboard pane, select the 'Web Page' object and drag it onto your dashboard.

Configure URL: After placing the web page object, a dialog box will prompt you to enter the URL of the web page you want to display. Enter your company's web page URL here.

Resize and Position: Adjust the size and position of the web page object to fit your dashboard design.

Question 2

Which two analytics options are available for a scatter plot view? Choose two.



Answer : C, D

For a scatter plot view in Tableau, you can add reference lines and trend lines as part of the analytics options. Reference lines can be added to a visualization to mark certain values or to provide context, such as an average line across a scatter plot. Trend lines, on the other hand, are used to show the relationship between two variables in the view, indicating the general direction or pattern of the data points in a scatter plot.


Question 3

What are two methods for renaming a field in a visualization? Choose two.



Answer : A, B

In Tableau, you can rename a field directly in the Data pane by clicking and holding on the field name until it becomes editable, allowing you to type a new name. Alternatively, you can use the drop-down menu associated with the field in the Data pane and select the 'Rename' option. Both methods provide a quick and easy way to change the name of a field without affecting the underlying data structure. The 'Format menu' and 'Replace Reference' option do not apply to renaming fields.


Question 4

Which three statements accurately describes the capabilities of dashboard actions? Choose three.



Answer : B, C, E

Dashboard actions in Tableau are interactive elements that can be used to create a more dynamic experience. These actions can be set to filter data on the dashboard, highlight specific elements, or even direct the user to a URL when interacting with a visualization. They can be triggered by user interaction such as hover, selection, or accessing a context menu. Moreover, dashboard actions can have multiple source sheets (where the action originates) and target sheets (where the action takes effect), allowing for a complex interactivity between different parts of the dashboard.


Question 5

You want to provide additional information when hovering over a field in the Data pane as shown in the following exhibit.

What should you configure for the field?



Answer : D

To provide additional information when hovering over a field in the Data pane, as shown in the exhibit, you need to configure a default comment for the field. This comment can be set by right-clicking on the field in the Data pane and selecting 'Default Properties' and then 'Comment.' The text entered as a comment here will then be displayed as a tooltip when hovering over the field in the Data pane.


Question 6

You are creating a combined axis chart.

Where should you drag the second measure after dragging the first measure to the Rows shelf?



Answer : D

In Tableau, when creating a combined axis chart, after dragging the first measure to the Rows shelf, you should drag the second measure directly onto the existing axis in the view. This will combine both measures on the same axis, allowing them to share a scale and an axis, which is the essence of a combined axis chart.


Question 7

Which type of date filter can you use to choose a range of dates based on TODAY ()?



Answer : B

The relative date filter can be used to select a range of dates relative to the current date, such as the past month, the current quarter, etc. This filter type dynamically adjusts the range based on the current system date, making it suitable for use with the TODAY() function.
