What is a parameter in Tableau?
The parameters in Tableau are the workbook variables like a number, date, or calculated field that allows users to replace a constant value in a calculation, filter, or reference line.
For example, you create a field that returns true if the sales are greater than 30,000 and false if otherwise. Parameters are used to replace these numbers (30000 in this case) to dynamically set this during calculations. Parameters allow you to dynamically modify values in a calculation. The parameters can accept values in the following options:
- All: Simple text field.
- List: List of possible values to select from.
- Range: Select values from a specified range.
