Let Tableau build your phone layout automatically instead of dragging every tile by hand.

  • Tableau can auto-generate a phone layout for an existing dashboard rather than requiring you to build one manually

Tableau can automatically generate a phone-sized layout from an existing dashboard, saving you from manually rebuilding a mobile version tile by tile.

You already have a dashboard built for desktop and need a phone-friendly version of it.

The Breakdown
  1. Start from your existing dashboard 0:40

    You must first have a completed desktop dashboard in place, since the phone layout is generated from what already exists rather than built independently.

Use It When

Reach for this when you need a mobile-friendly version of a dashboard quickly and don't want to spend time manually rearranging every element for a phone screen.

Model + prompt + video is everything you'd need to recreate a Rollup like this yourself. The one thing we don't share is the transcript.
