Do you want to visualize your data in a dynamic way? This guided project was created for learners who want to gain a solid understanding of Tableau and how to create impactful data visualizations. You will learn how to create dynamic dashboards for visualizing data using different LOD (level of detail) expressions. More specifically, in this 1 hour long project-based course you will analyze sales data from a retail store using Tableau desktop, and build dynamic dashboards that enable complex Tableau dashboards to drill down into data at different levels for deeper analysis. To achieve this we will be using Tableau Desktop which is a user friendly and powerful tool that allows you to analyze, dissect and visualize your data from different granularities.
