If you are saving 'new' datasource as another .tdsx file locally, just add it as a new datasource to existing workbook and then right-click 'old' datasource in Data pane and choose 'Replace'.
Need help with tableau .tdsx usage.
Current Process: - We publish and refresh data sources (packaged .tdsx) to the tableau server. Our customers download the data sources and build ad hoc reports for their business needs.
Problem: - If the customer already build some views last month, is there a way to download the latest ‘.tdsx’ file and use it in the existing workbook were they created the views.
Today, customer is re-creating the views using each month updated ‘.tdsx’ files.
Can you suggest a better way to achieve this? I can provide more details if it is needed.
Note: - Publishing a packaged workbook (.twbx) with views in it is not feasible as the report requirement varies most of the months.
