Tableau Desktop Certified Professional — Question 105

In which two situations should you assign an alias? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. To assign an alternative name to a value in a dimension field
• B. To rename all the data values in a field
• C. To supplement data in a primary data source with data from a secondary data source
• D. To assign an alternative name to a value in a measure

Correct answer: A, D

Explanation

Choosing an alias is suitable for providing an alternative name for a specific value in a dimension field (A) or a measure (D). Options B and C are incorrect because B involves renaming all values which is not the purpose of an alias, and C pertains to data integration rather than naming conventions.
