2. Introducing Line Patterns
The next game-changing feature in Tableau 2023.2 is Line Patterns. This exciting addition provides a whole new level of flexibility and customisation when it comes to creating visually stunning data visualisations.
With Line Patterns, you now have the power to choose from a variety of line styles, including solid, dashed, or dotted lines. These patterns allow you to effortlessly highlight specific areas of interest within your visualisations, making it easier than ever to convey complex information with clarity and impact.
Imagine comparing actual data against modelled values with striking visual cues or effortlessly differentiating lines in dynamic or crowded visualisations. Line Patterns give you the ability to create eye-catching visuals that captivate your audience and make your data come to life. No longer will you be limited to static, monotonous lines. Line Patterns empower you to add a touch of creativity and personalisation to your visualisations.
3. Personal Access Token Admin Control
Gone are the days of compromising on security compliance. With this latest release, Site Admins are granted an array of tools to manage PAT creation privileges, tailor their validity periods to organisational needs, and wield their data protection prowess like never before. You hold the keys From a single dashboard to determine who can create PATs and fine-tune their lifespans, ranging from a day to a full year.
But the excitement doesn’t stop there! We’ve taken proactive security measures to the next level. For Tableau Cloud sites created after version 2023.2, PATs come disabled by default, providing an additional layer of protection. Moreover, we’ve listened to your feedback, and the default expiration period has been thoughtfully shortened to 180 days, aligning with best practices and ensuring optimal data security.
4. Editable Viz Alt Text
With the latest feature, content authors have the power to edit the automatically generated alt text, opening the doors to endless possibilities. Whether through the Data Guide panel or the Accessibility option in the Worksheet drop-down menu, you can now add up to 2,500 characters of detailed alt text to craft captivating descriptions that bring your visualisations to life. Step into a realm of creativity and inclusivity, ensuring that everyone can fully comprehend and appreciate the story behind your data.
5. Salesforce Data Cloud Connector
With Tableau’s enhanced Salesforce Data Cloud connector, say goodbye to complex installations as this driverless connector effortlessly connects your data sources. Use Data Spaces, where you can create customised visualisations tailored to specific contexts, organising metadata, data, and processes to empower stakeholders. Enjoy a user-friendly interface that replaces object API names with object labels, making table selection a breeze. With support for 11 additional functions, including datetime capabilities, supercharge your content creation and data analysis processes.
