Meaning Before Metrics: Preparing Your Data for Tableau Next
April 8 @ 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm
About the Event
What if your data model understood your business language before anyone asked a question?
In this one-hour session, explore how Tableau Next’s Semantic Data Model strengthens governance by embedding business rules, KPIs, and domain language directly into the model. We will also preview capabilities like Auto SDM generation, Q&A Calibration, and the Concierge Analytics Agent, and discuss how thoughtful model preparation enables more reliable conversational analytics.
