Tableau Prep Builder

Tableau Prep Builder for Building of data flows

Tableau Prep Builder lets you build data flows. In many organisations, data prep is reserved for people with special skills - a company's data engineers and data scientists. Only after the data has been prepared can analysts and business users begin to perform their analyses.

Thanks to Tableau Prep, this is now possible and everyone can prepare data faster than ever before and more intuitively. You give teams the tools they need to confidently combine, shape, and cleanse data so they can gain insight faster and make better business decisions.

Tableau Prep consists of two products: Tableau Prep Builder for building your data flows and Tableau Prep Conductor for sharing and managing flows within the organisation.

Visualize Your Data In Minutes

A complete picture of the data

There are three coordinated views. These show you data at row level, column profiles and the whole data preparation process. Depending on what you are doing, you can choose which view to work with.

Key benefits

Instant results with Tableau Prep Builder

If you want to edit a value, you can do so directly. Change the join type and see the difference immediately. With every action, you see the data change, even across millions of data rows. Tableau Prep Builder gives you the freedom to rearrange steps and experiment without consequences.

Visualize Your Data In Minutes

Work smarter, work faster

Use smart features to solve common data preparation problems. Tableau Prep Builder uses fuzzy clustering to turn repetitive tasks into one-click operations, such as grouping by pronunciation.

Key benefits

Connect with more data

Connect to data stored locally and in the cloud - whether it's a database or a spreadsheet. Access, combine, and cleanse different data without programming. Tableau Prep Builder cleverly works inside the database as much as possible, leveraging your existing database investments for fast flow.

Stay in the flow

Stay in the analysis flow. You can easily open output with Tableau Desktop or share it via Tableau Server or Tableau Online. Sharing is easy, with no hassle. Plus, business results improve as the gap between data preparation and analysis is closed.
