A retail analyst is designing a Tableau dashboard and wants business users to switch between viewing Sales, Profit, or Quantity on a single bar chart without creating separate worksheets. Which Tableau capability should the analyst configure so users can choose the metric at run time?
Parameters function as user-controlled variables in Tableau. By building a parameter that lists Sales, Profit, and Quantity and referencing it in a calculated field, the analyst can expose a parameter control that lets viewers toggle which measure populates the bar chart. Sets, data-source filters, and groups control data membership, row filtering, or category labeling, but none of them dynamically swap one measure for another within the same visualization.
