Hi,

have 2 questions:

 

1. is this feature of auto-updating parameters with data refresh on Tableau server available in 10.0 Tableau version?

 

Alteryx server updates Tableau server extracts which is the source for all my Tableau server dashboards. However in the absence of parameter auto update with data refresh, manual intervention is needed every time, which takes away from automation.

 

is there an alternative way to do this?

 

2. When the data is refreshed on the server, whether with parameters or with quick filters, dashboards show the default date to be the date when it was last uploaded on the server. Is there a way to adjust this to reflect the most recent available data date without manually updating it on the desktop and relaunching it?

 

any help will be greatly appreciated.

 

Regards,

Bhavana

    hi Tom,

    2 date parameters with scrolls for users to choose 'From' and 'To' dates. I need to be able to refresh these 2 parameters automatically when data refresh is done. However currently, I have to open parameters on my desktop after every refresh, pull the data from the field and reload the file to the server to see new data.

     

    Can't automate anything due to this, as manual intervention is needed every week (I have a weekly refresh).

     

    regular filters won't work as I need to have ability for the user to run data between 2 dates.

     

    First new refreshed date needs to be populated in the parameter for it to show Max date as default.

     

    Thank you,

    Bhavana
