Overview/Description

To become a data science expert, you must master the art of data visualization. This 12-video course explores how to create and use real time dashboards with Tableau. Begin with an introduction to real-time dashboards and differences between real time and streaming data. Next, take a look at different cloud data sources. Learn how to build a dashboard in Tableau and update it in real time. Discover how to organize your dashboard by adding objects and adjusting the layout. Then customize and format different aspects of dashboards in Tableau and add interactivity using actions like filtering. Look at creating a dashboard starter, a prebuilt dashboard that can be used with Tableau Online to connect to cloud data sources. Add extensions to your dashboard such as the Tableau Extensions API (application program interface). Explore how to put together a simple dashboard story, which consists of sheets—each sheet in sequence is called a story point—and how to share a dashboard in Tableau. In the concluding exercise, learners create a dashboard starter.
