Tableau – Release 2 – 2025

Version Updates

1. Show Me 2.0 (Choose Me) – TC25

As announced during TC 25. “Choose Me” is upgrade to “Show Me”. The AI will not only suggest chart types based on your data structure but also take into account your objective. EG: You want to use a specific visual type and it will suggest dimensions and measures to use.
In addition, all visualization types are now available upfront, so no need to select the fields first.

2. Dynamic Color Palette Range – TC25

Another feature announced during TC 25. (This was also one Idea that was proposed by the community).

You can have the color palette that is applied to your graphs change based on the current view. (Eg: after filters). If for example one country is a big outlier compared to other countries. If you were to filter only on Europe the color palette range would change based on Europe and not be skewed by the other data that’s not shown.

3. Dynamic Spatial Parameters- TC25

Again announced on TC 25 as ‘Viewport parameters’. This new feature enables you to synchronize multiple maps while filtering or moving within a map.

4. Tableau Pulse improvements

Metric Filtering and comparisons
Multilingual support
Custom Calendar
Certify Metric Definitions
Mute metrics from Insights Summary
Filtering on Mobile
…

5. Tableau for Google Workspace – TC 25

You’ll be able to push your Tableau items directly into Google Sheets and Slides. The new Add-ons will allow you to embed dashboards and metrics in your Google documents, sheets and presentations. Do note it will still require a manual process to update them once they’re in a document.

6. Performance Insights Dashboard

A new report has been made available to admins in the Admin Insights Starter workbook (within the Admin Insights project). You can filter specific workbooks and check what visualizations impact load times and identify any slow performing reports.
