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?

  1. YES, we can do this with the help of a plugin
  2. NO, this is not currently possible in Tableau
  3. YES, we can do this with the help of a Web-Page object
  4. YES, we can do this with the help of Tableau Public

Answer(s): C

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.

How do you identify a continuous field in Tableau?

  1. It is identified by a blue pill in the visualization

  3. It is preceded by a '=#' symbol in the data window
  4. It is preceded by a 'Abc' symbol in the data window

When you connect to a new data source, Tableau assigns each field in the data source as dimension or measure in the Data pane, depending on the type of data the field contains. You use these fields to build views of your data.

True or False: Sets can be created on Measures

  1. True
  2. False

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Sets are custom fields that are created within Tableau Desktop based on dimensions from your data source. They are subsets of your data, which can be created manually or computed. Either dimensions or measures can be used to determine what is included or excluded from a set using conditional logic, but to CREATE a set we use dimensions.

  1. Paper Clip
  2. Globe

A field that shows average home values for the United States in 2016 is most likely :

  1. A discrete date part dimension
  2. A continuous date value dimension
  3. A geographical dimension
  4. An aggregated measure

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

This question is directly from the Official Tableau Desktop Specialist exam guide. Since we are talking about the AVERAGE home values for the United States in 2016, the question is directly offering us a hint that the answer has something to do with aggregation and that too the values tell us that we're working with MEASURES.
Date part and Date values don't really make much sense given the question, and neither does geography.

Therefore, the answer naturally is "An aggregated measure".
