Can you do a session in which recommend best practices to help Pulse make good 'predictions' based partial data. If I aggregate the data to weekly, then it can ignore 'current week', but if someone chooses monthly then we have a partial month.
Hey Tim, Is there a feature yet to embed pulse metrics in dashboards or is it something that will be available in future product updates? I remember seeing it in the TC but don't know if its GA yet.
Hi Tim so when we create a metric using pulse for example for sales, It has an insights of "expected range". I was curious on what basis is pulse calculating this. A brief explanation would be helpful thanks.
@@TableauTim okay I created a metric for sales and sparkling was at non- cumulative and it was giving me an Expected range I got was -2.2k to 6.6k but how can sales be negative at any point?
@@kartikchhabra2098 Likely your metric isn't aggregating correctly. That would only happen if a negative value is possible also be sure your reading the chart correctly -2k on a pulse metric means down 2k compared to the previous number. if your basing it on the previous month or previous year so check the context of your metric carefully. Pulse doesn't make mistakes like this its going to be user error or misunderstanding of the chart.
@@TableauTim I made it using sample superstore i validated the values and everything only thing I couldn't get was why is the expected range coming out to be negative and on what basis is it calculation that Expected range. If you could help it'd be great. Thankyou for your responses so far
@@TableauTim well a range for sales can't get to -2k if it's showing the lower bound it should be zero it can't get further down. It's was on MTD by default. Sales can be in between a range starting from zero so how is it showing a negative value.

Thanks Tim, good reminder for the navigation dashboard wasn't aware of that one!
Thanks Tim,
Awesome video as usual. Please do a video on how to add Pulse objects to a dashboard and then be able to share the dashboard via slack

Hi Tim, Can the end user have access to the Tableau Pulse to ask questions related to the data on published dashboard? Thanks in advance.

Past behaviour based on the date and metric you choose and trend analysis built into tableau. You cant tweak this its a preset capability.
