Tableau Desktop Foundations Practice Question

When you connect to a CSV file, Tableau reads two columns: Transaction_ID (a numeric field) and Region (a text field). You make no manual changes after the connection. Based on Tableau's default field classification, how will these two columns be listed in the Data pane?

  • Both fields under Dimensions, because Tableau assumes identifiers and categories are qualitative.

  • Both fields under Measures, because Tableau classifies every field as a measure until it is used in a view.

  • Transaction_ID under Dimensions and Region under Measures, because identifiers are categorical while regions can be aggregated.

  • Transaction_ID under Measures and Region under Dimensions, because numeric fields default to measures while text fields default to dimensions.

Random Mixed
Questions are selected randomly from all chosen topics, with a preference for those you haven’t seen before. You may see several questions from the same objective or domain in a row.
Rotate by Objective
Questions cycle through each objective or domain in turn, helping you avoid long streaks of questions from the same area. You may see some repeat questions, but the distribution will be more balanced across topics.

Check or uncheck an objective to set which questions you will receive.
