workaround to automatically update Tableau #313

Closed EvaRuthM closed 4 years ago

EvaRuthM commented 4 years ago

PROBLEM: We use Tableau Public for our dashboards, but it will only stay automatically updated to data in Google Sheets if the Google Sheet is on an individual's drive and not a team drive. We currently address this by connecting Tableau Public to our data.world, but that is not ideal and is clunky and the connection breaks.

SOLUTION: Ideal: clone the Google Sheet onto a personal drive sheet (and build it so that it stays automatically updated when the original is updated)
