A colleague provides you with access to a folder that contains the following files:
• Sates.csv
• Bookl.twb
• Sates.hyper
• Export.mdb
Which He contains an extract?
A.
AExport mdb
B.
Book1.twb
C.
Sales.hype
D.
Sales.csv
Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
A .hyper file is an extract file that contains a snapshot of data from a data source. It is a compressed
and optimized file format that can be used to improve the performance and portability of
dashboards and workbooks. A .twb file is a workbook file that contains the visualization and
connection information, but not the data itself. A .csv file is a comma-separated values file that
contains plain text data. A .mdb file is a Microsoft Access database file that contains tables, queries,
forms, and other objects. Reference: https://help.tableau.com/current/pro/desktop/enus/save_savework_packagedworkbooks.htm https://help.tableau.com/current/pro/desktop/enus/extracting_data.htm https://help.tableau.com/current/pro/desktop/en-us/examples_csv.htm

In Tableau, a .hyper file is an extract file created by the Hyper database engine. It contains a snapshot
of the data pulled into Tableau and is used to perform data analysis without the need for a live
connection to the data source.
Question #2 (Topic: demo questions)
You publish a dashboard tut uses an attract. The extract refreshes every Monday at 10:00.
You need to ensure that the extract also refreshes on the last day of the month at 18:00.
What should you do?
A.
From Tableau Desktop, open the Publish Workbook dialog box and configure the schedule.
B.
From Tableau Serverselect the workbook select Refresh Extracts and then add a new extract refresh.
C.
From Tableau Server. select Schedulesfind the schedule of the extract, and change the frequency to the Last day of the month
D.
From Tableau Server.select Schedules and change the priority of the existing schedule
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
To refresh an extract on Tableau Server, you need to select the workbook,select Refresh Extracts, and
then add a new extract refresh. You can specify the frequency and time of the refresh, as well as any
custom options. You can have multiple extract refreshes for the same workbook with different
schedules. Reference: https://help.tableau.com/current/server/en-us/refresh_extracts.htm
https://help.tableau.com/current/server/en-us/refresh_extracts_add.htm
On Tableau Server, you can manage the scheduling of extract refreshes by selecting the specific
workbook and configuring additional refresh schedules as needed. This allows for multiple refresh
triggers, such as the regular Monday at 10:00 AM schedule, as well as an additional trigger for the
last day of the month at 18:00.
Question #3 (Topic: demo questions)
You have the following dashboard.
You want to show only one visualization at time. Users must be able to switch between
visualizations.
Whatshould you me?
A.
A parameter and a calculated filed
B.
Worksheet actions
C.
Show/hide buttons
D.
Dashboard actions
Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
In Tableau, you can manage the visibility of different visualizations on a dashboard using various
techniques. Among the options provided, the moststraightforward method to allow usersto switch
between two visualizations is to use show/hide buttons.
Here's why each option is or isn’t suitable for the requirement:
A . A parameter and a calculated field: While it's possible to use a parameter and a calculated field to
control which visualization is displayed, it requires creating a calculated field that responds to a
parameter and then using that field to filter the view. This method can become complex and is not as
user-friendly for simply showing and hiding visualizations.
B . Worksheet actions: Worksheet actions in Tableau typically allow users to interact with the data
within a visualization, such as filtering data or highlighting related data points when clicking or
hovering. They are not designed to control the visibility of entire visualizations on a dashboard.
C . Show/hide buttons: Show/hide buttons are a feature specifically designed to manage the visibility
of dashboard elements. When you create a show/hide button, it can be configured to display or hide
a particular visualization, container, or any other dashboard element when clicked. This provides a
very intuitive interface for users to switch between visualizations. D . Dashboard actions: Dashboard actions, like worksheet actions, are used to create interactions
between sheets, such as filtering data or navigating to other sheets or URLs based on user
interactions. They are not intended for toggling the visibility of visualizations.
Therefore, the correct answer is C. Show/hide buttons as they provide a user-friendly way to switch
between visualizations on a dashboard without the need for complex calculations or actions that
aren't meant for this purpose. The show/hide button feature is specifically designed for toggling
visibility and offers a simple and effective solution for the requirement.
Question #4 (Topic: demo questions)
You have the following box plot thatshows the distribution of average profits made in every state by
region. Which region hasthe smallest distribution of profits?
A.
South
B.
Cast
C.
Central
D.
West
Correct Answer: A
Explanation:
The box plot visualization displaysthe distribution of average profits by region. The distribution of profits is represented by the range of the box (interquartile range) and the whiskers (which often
represent the total range excluding outliers). From the image provided, the South region has the
smallest visible range within its box and the shortest whiskers, indicating the smallest distribution of
average profits among the choices provided.
