Learn how to build a data flow, use various input options in Tableau Prep, and enhance data quality by removing unnecessary fields. Next, discover data roles for error checking and validation, as well as how to split and manipulate fields. Finally, you will learn how to save flows in Tableau Prep for future use, and explore the difference between saving a flow file and exporting a packaged flow, as well as the scenarios when each of these options is appropriate.
