0:00In 2020.3, Tableau continues to push
0:04forward with web edit enhancements.
0:07They're trying to get to some feature
0:08parity.
0:09It's pretty clear that's the case because
0:10this time what they've done is they've
0:12actually
0:12brought the filter dialogue we're used to
0:14in Tableau Desktop to web edit.
0:16Let me show you the difference between a
0:19previous version of Tableau Server or Table
0:21au Online
0:22and the new version coming in 2020.3.
0:25What I'll do is I'll switch over to this
0:27data source on house prices.
0:28This is actually on the Information Lab
0:30Tableau Server.
0:31If I just drag Dristict onto filters,
0:34notice that when I drop it down, the filter
0:37appears
0:37here on the right-hand side.
0:39Let me just highlight that for you so it's
0:41easy to see.
0:42You can just see that the filter is there
0:44basically.
0:45Then what we normally have to do is edit
0:47that filter right here in the pane.
0:49We don't get the filter dialogue we're used
0:52to in Desktop where you can choose top
0:54conditional
0:55and wildcard selectors for your filters.
0:59In 2020.3, they haven't brought across all
1:02of those features, but I'll show you what
1:04they have done.
1:05I'm going to hit Explore, go to my data
1:07sources here, and I'm obviously going to
1:09work with
1:10Superstore Sales.
1:11You can just publish up Superstore Sales to
1:13Tableau Online or Tableau Server and follow
1:16this video along.
1:17I'm going to create a new workbook here
1:19from the browser.
1:21Now I'm on my Tableau Online test instance.
1:23I can't say that word sometimes.
1:25I'm on my Tableau Online test instance.
1:28Now watch what happens when I drag a
1:30dimension onto the filter pane.
1:32If I just drag, let's say, product name
1:35onto filters, this time I get this filter
1:38dialogue.
1:39This is something that we haven't had in
1:41WebEdit until now.
1:42You can see here that I just have the basic
1:44list of options.
1:46I only have the options to basically choose
1:49a custom value list.
1:51I don't have any of the wildcard or
1:53conditional selections that I used to have
1:55before, but
1:56I can select from a list and it will just
1:58give me the full list.
1:59I can obviously make my selections, hit
2:01Apply, and we're pretty much good to go.
2:04Notice that it's doing this all in the web.
2:05Even though I've got a really large list of
2:07fields here, it's using the power of Table
2:09au
2:09Online or Tableau Server to drive all of
2:11this.
2:12You might actually find on some really
2:14large datasets, building from WebEdit might
2:16actually
2:17be faster because your server is more
2:19capable than your desktop in terms of
2:21queries.
2:21Also, your server itself might actually be
2:23closer to the data, if that makes sense.
2:26If your Tableau Server, in terms of
2:27infrastructure, is in the same data center
2:30as your database,
2:31then actually doing this will be slightly
2:33faster than doing it on your desktop
2:34machine,
2:35which has to make the call out to the
2:37database and back again.
2:39This is a really nice addition to WebEdit.
2:41I think we're really getting there.
2:42I think within the next year or so, it'll
2:45be very, very hard to look at Tableau
2:47Desktop
2:47and the WebEdit capability and really
2:49notice the differences apart from small
2:52tweaks in
2:52terms of how these things are done.
2:55That's pretty much it for the video.
