What is tableau-designer?

A guide to designing Tableau dashboards, including calculated fields, detailed level-of-detail calculations, interactive actions, and visual storytelling. Tableau is a tool for exploring data and presenting charts and reports.

Use it to plan dashboard layouts, choose data connections, create calculations, add filters and drill-downs, and improve dashboard performance.

It helps turn vague reporting requests into dashboards that answer specific business questions without overwhelming the intended audience.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00057	$0.01963
Opus 5	$0.00028	$0.00981
Sonnet 5	$0.00011	$0.00393
Haiku 4.5	$0.00006	$0.00196

Security

Grade A, and why

tableau-designer scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Tableau Designer

Workflow

1. Cadrer les besoins avant d'ouvrir Tableau

Lister les 3-5 questions métier auxquelles le dashboard doit répondre (ex. « Quel commercial a le meilleur taux de conversion ce mois-ci ? »).
Identifier le public cible → adapte le grain :
- Exécutif : KPIs agrégés, peu de filtres, mobile-friendly
- Opérationnel : drill-down, filtres temporels, export CSV
- Analytique : LOD, paramètres dynamiques, tooltips détaillés
Esquisser le layout sur papier avant de toucher Tableau (économise 50 % des itérations).

2. Préparer et modéliser les données

Connexions recommandées par cas :

Cas	Connexion	Raison
Dashboard haute fréquence (>100 accès/j)	Extract `.hyper`	Cache local, rendu rapide
Données temps-réel (<15 min)	Live	Fraîcheur garantie
Plusieurs tables > 10 M lignes	Relationship (Tableau 2020.2+)	Évite les fanout JOIN
Petits fichiers CSV/Excel	Published Data Source	Gouvernance centralisée

Optimisation extract :

# Filtres recommandés sur l'extract
Date >= DATEADD('year', -2, TODAY())    -- limiter la fenêtre temporelle
[Status] IN ('Active', 'Closed')        -- exclure les statuts obsolètes

Créer les hiérarchies (Année > Trimestre > Mois), groupes et alias directement dans la source pour les réutiliser dans toutes les feuilles.

3. Construire les Calculated Fields

Agrégations conditionnelles :

// CA sur les nouveaux clients uniquement
IF [Client Type] = 'New' THEN [Revenue] ELSE 0 END
// → toujours agréger ensuite : SUM(calcul_ci-dessus)

Calculs de table (Table Calculations) :

// Croissance mois sur mois
(SUM([Revenue]) - LOOKUP(SUM([Revenue]), -1)) / ABS(LOOKUP(SUM([Revenue]), -1))
// Vérifier l'Addressing/Partitioning : Edit Table Calculation > Specific Dimensions

Calculs temporels courants :

DATEDIFF('day', [Order Date], TODAY())          // ancienneté en jours
DATETRUNC('month', [Order Date])                // tronquer au 1er du mois
DATENAME('weekday', [Order Date])               // nom du jour

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
