A client has a published data source in Tableau Server and they want to revert to the previous version of the data source. The solution must minimize the impact
on users.
What should the consultant do to accomplish this task?
A.
Request that a server administrator restore a Tableau Server backup.
B.
Delete and recreate the data source manually.
C.
Select a previous version from Tableau Server, download it, and republish that data source.
D.
Select a previous version from Tableau Server, and then click Restore.
To minimize the impact on users when reverting to a previous version of a published data source in Tableau Server, the consultant should use the built-in revision history feature. By selecting a previous version from the revision history and clicking ‘Restore’, the data source will revert to that version without the need for a full server backup restoration or manual recreation of the data source. This process is quick and has the least amount of disruption to users.
References:The functionality and process for reverting to a previous version of a data source are outlined in Tableau’s official documentation on working with content revisions1.This feature is part of Tableau Server’s capabilities to manage and maintain data sources effectively21.
