Join us for the October HETUG where we'll meet John LeMay (University of North Alabama--Go Lions!); see Ginny Moench (Appalachian State) slay in Tableau Prep; and see Roshni Gohil (MIT) come face-to-face with JSON--the code one, not the horror movie staple--and XML under Tableau Prep and Desktop files, respectively.

Log in, grab a treat, and take a comfortable seat.
Meet John LeMay from the University of North Alabama, and hear how he learned and uses Tableau to build dashboards like this Census dashboard. (We may ask if John's ever come face to face with Leo III, the only live--yes, LIVE--lion mascot in the country who lived on a college campus until this year.)
Ginny's going to slay you with some Prep tips. Will her tips and tricks be the silver bullet that makes Tableau Prep your data prep tool?

Get ready for some Halloween-ey SQL...
Oh, wait, our speaker informs us that we're not going to talk (much) SQL. This is a sequel presentation. We'll be following up on some of what we sped through last month: the XML source code underneath Tableau Desktop .twb files and the JSON source code underneathTableau Prep .tfl files.
We'll cover some use cases for looking at the source code, how to make sense of the underlying structures in both types of files, and how carefully editing the code (at your own risk; always make a backup first!) can help you update Tableau workbooks and flows more efficiently.
We'll close out the meeting with info about our next HETUG meeting, and then open up breakout rooms to chat! (Chat may extend past 4:30pm Eastern.)
Have a quick tip to share? A longer presentation? Want us to interview you in our Meet a Community Member segment? We want to hear from you!
Want to chat with other HETUG members? Have a Tableau question? Want a sounding board? We've got a Slack space for that.
