You have cleaned a data source properly, created some calculated fields and renamed
some columns. You want to save these changes for future use cases. Which of the
following would best satisfy this requirement? - answers -save it as a .tds file.
Explanation:
After making changes to data, we can save that new data source as a .tds file. To do
so, go to data menu on top and then choose your current connected data source. Then
next click on add to saved data sources. This will save all calculated fields, changes to
fields etc. It will be saved in my tableau repository -> mydatasources. This will then also
appear on tableau home page under saved data sources like samplesuperstore.
Note: data source files do not contain the actual data but rather the information
necessary to connect to the actual data as well as any modifications you've made on
top of the actual data such as changing default properties, creating calculated fields,
adding groups, and so on.
