About the Site

Features and Purpose

  • The uploaded files will be deleted after the specifications are created and will not remain on the server.

Background

For over 10 years, our company has been engaged in data analysis, visualization, and dashboard creation using Tableau. We have also been teaching these skills to employees of our client companies and nurturing Tableau users.

During this time, we received the following feedback from our customers:

Tableau Desktop:

  • It takes a lot of time to document the contents of a created dashboard.
  • It is troublesome to check calculation fields one by one when reviewing a dashboard created by someone else.
  • When delivering, specifications are also required because it is difficult to understand with just the dashboard.

Tableau Prep:

  • It is difficult to document the processing of each step one by one.
  • It takes time to create a definition document for the loaded data sources.
  • A lot of time is spent searching each step to see if there is any unnecessary processing.

To solve these issues, we developed this site to automatically generate specifications from created Tableau files. By automatically generating specifications, the time required for document creation can be greatly reduced, improving work efficiency and the quality of Tableau content.

This site is free to use and can also be used commercially. Please feel free to use it for your Tableau activities.

About Uploaded Files

The Tableau files uploaded to this site will be deleted immediately after the specifications are generated and will not remain on the server at all.

Only the JSON files and Excel files extracted as specifications will be retained on the server.
