Curate and Share Insights with Tableau CRM Collections

Tableau CRM collections are like playlists for your lenses and dashboards. Collections let you manage your own group of items and personalize your home page. You can curate the perfect collection to stay organized by adding the dashboards and lenses that you care about, even if they’re spread across multiple apps. Organize items in your collection to your liking, then share and get input from other users. After you curate the collection, subscribe to it to receive your favorite insights in your inbox.

Where: This change applies to Tableau CRM (formerly Einstein Analytics) in Lightning Experience and Salesforce Classic. Tableau CRM is available in Developer Edition and for an extra cost in Enterprise, Performance, and Unlimited editions.
