  • B. No

Answer: B

To create a story, lets say I have a blank story with 1 dashboard and 1 worksheet.
I can simply drag the dashboard into the view to create a new story point.

NEW QUESTION 23
What is a story point in Tableau?

  • A. A collection of worksheets
  • B. A single worksheet or dashboard
  • C. A collection of dashboards
  • D. A collection of both worksheets and dashboards

Answer: B

Explanation:
Explanation
In Tableau, a story is a sequence of visualizations that work together to convey information. You can create stories to tell a data narrative, provide context, demonstrate how decisions relate to outcomes, or to simply make a compelling case.
A story is a sheet, so the methods you use to create, name, and manage worksheets and dashboards also apply to stories (for more details, see Workbooks and Sheets). At the same time, a story is also a collection of sheets, arranged in a sequence. Each individual sheet (worksheet or dashboard) in a story is called a story point.
When you share a story -for example, by publishing a workbook to Tableau Public, Tableau Server, or Tableau Online-users can interact with the story to reveal new findings or ask new questions of the data.

  • A. 1,461
