Datasets with the BigML Dashboard

9.2 Exporting and Downloading Datasets to Tableau

To export your dataset from the BigML Dashboard to the Tableau format (TDE):

  1. From the dataset view, click the 1-click action menu, and select Request export (Tableau). (See Figure 9.3 .)

  2. BigML processes your request. Note: the process may take a few minutes. The larger the dataset size, the longer it will take.

  3. Once the dataset is ready, select Download dataset (Tableau) from the same 1-click action menu (see Figure 9.4 ), and save the TDE file in your local environment. This file is ready to be used in the Tableau platform.
