VizLedger and Tableau Desktop
Many companies use Tableau Desktop to build interactive dashboards and analytical reports for business users. VizLedger complements this workflow by providing a central place to describe and organize those dashboards.
How teams use VizLedger with Tableau Desktop
Teams working with Tableau Desktop can use VizLedger to:
- Maintain a catalog of official dashboards, owners, and audiences
- Explain key KPIs, filters, and drill-down options in plain language
- Document which decisions a dashboard supports and what data it uses
- Provide onboarding guides for new users of existing Tableau reports
What VizLedger does not do
VizLedger does not:
- Modify Tableau workbooks or connect to them directly
- Distribute Tableau installers, plug-ins, or extensions
- Access local system files or change any system settings
All information in VizLedger is added manually by users as text, screenshots, and structured documentation linked to dashboards they maintain in Tableau Desktop.
