List of used aliases in Tableau

  • I often get the problem when this or that alias name is already used somewhere, and I can't easily find that variable or aggregation to release the name.

    enter image description here

    Is there some place in Tableau where I can view/edit/reset full list of aliases?

  • Another way of editing alias for a member having multiple aliases:

    1. Right click the 'Measure Names' in Dimension panel.
    2. Select 'Aliases...'
    3. A small edit box appears with all the members having aliases.
    4. Edit/update alias for each member, as preferred.
    5. Press OK to save any changes made.

  • Finally solved the issue. You should go to:

    Data –> your_data_source –> Edit Aliases –> Measure Names

    And see full mapping between variables/aggregations and aliases.
