Composable Data Sources: Bringing It All Together with Kirk Munroe

September 9 @ 12:00 pm 1:00 pm

About the Event

One of Tableau’s most requested features has arrived. Composable data sources, introduced in Tableau 2026.2, allow users to connect multiple published data sources within a single data model.

In this Data-Driven Community event, guest speaker Kirk Munroe will explore how composable data sources can help you move beyond traditional data blending. You’ll learn how to relate published data sources, extend them with custom semantic definitions or calculations, and publish the combined model as a new reusable asset, all without altering the original sources.

Kirk Munroe is a Tableau Visionary, two-time Tableau Ambassador, and author of Data Modeling with Tableau. Recognized for his expertise in semantic models, scalable data architectures, and enablement, Kirk helps teams use their data with greater confidence and creativity.

Join us to see how composable data sources bring distributed data together and create new possibilities for reusable, governed analytics in Tableau.

If you can’t attend live, register and receive the recording.
