Tableau Prep allows us to perform all this tasks that are already available on Tableau Desktop but in a much easier and clean way, making also very easy to replicate and run those steps again in the future and share it with others.
These tasks can already be done in Tableau Desktop, but sometimes it can become a bit messy the different changes that we apply: with several calculated fields just for data cleansing purposes that makes our data pane a bit messy or different filters that we should apply that aren’t as clear for the rest of the analysts, or we join lots of data sources together that slows down our workbooks. At the end a lot of times our data needs some preparation before starting with our analysis and visualisations, or maybe we want to combine it with additional data sources before. What is Tableau Prep (aka Project Maestro)?Īs I mentioned above, we could describe Tableau Prep as an ETL tool that allows us to prepare and cleanse our data to make sure it is ready before you start your analysis in Tableau Desktop.
