Publishing

Students interested in publishing their workbooks have a few options.

  1. Tableau Public – Tableau hosts a public server allowing users with an account to publish their workbooks. We recommend using Tableau Public for students wanting to publicize any workbooks used for classes or passion projects. This website is open to the web, so any data published must be properly anonymized.
  2. UCLA Server – The secure UCLA Tableau Server is available for UCLA business-specific content that will need to survive past a student’s time; a departmental sponsor is required to manage space on the DTS-managed Tableau Server.
  3. UCLA Health Students - For UCLA Health students interested in Tableau, please contact the Office of Health Informatics and Analytics (OHIA)
