Are auto scrolling filters supported in Tableau? Explain.

Answer»

Auto scrolling filters are not supported in Tableau SERVER, but they can be consumed in Tableau Desktop or Tableau Reader.

Step by step process of adding auto filters can be described below:

  • Go to “worksheet”
  • Select “action” (this could be select, hover, menu etc.)
  • Click “add action”
  • Select “filter” (basically there are 3 options under add actions – filter, highlight and URL)

Selecting filter here adds filtering action to the set of data used.

  • Give the name of the “filter”
  • Select “source SHEET”

Essentially auto filters are useful when some action is triggered in the source sheet, then that REFLECTS in the target sheet where there is a correlation of data shown or linked.

When using “action”, by hovering filters automatically gets applied to target sheet if we have defined as “hover” option, and so on.
