4. Important Topics for Tableau CRM and Einstein Discovery Certification exam

4.1 Data Layer – 24% (14 Questions)

4.2 Security – 11% (7 Questions)

  • Tableau CRM Users, Groups, and Profiles
  • Tableau CRM Platform Licenses and Permission Sets
    • The Tableau CRM Growth license (grants access Tableau CRM platform) includes two prebuilt permission sets:

4.3 Administration – 9% (6 Questions)

4.4 Tableau CRM Dashboard Design – 19% (12 Questions)

  • Tableau CRM Template App – Template Location: /services/data/<version_number>/wave/templates
    • template-info.json – manages all elements of your template, including metadata information about the template, the Tableau CRM objects that define dashboards and lenses, and the other files that are part of the template
    • ui.json – manages the configuration wizard that drives app creation. It defines the number of wizard pages, the order of wizard questions, and any messages you want the user to see
    • variables.json – contains all template variables, including text for wizard questions and specifications for the answers. Variables also define conditional questions. For example, you may want some questions to appear in the wizard only if an org contains certain data. Or you might want to add more specific questions based on the answers to more general wizard questions
    • template-to-app-rules.json – defines the rules the template follows. For example, you could define a rule that specifies that if an org doesn’t use certain Salesforce objects, the app won’t refer to them in dashboards or include them in the dataflow. Rules also define how variables are handled. For example, if the wizard asks which fields to include in filters for accounts, template-to-app-rules.json determines how that choice is reflected in dashboards. Note: We abbreviate the name of this file to rules.json in the rest of this module for ease of reading
    • folder.json – organises the parts of dashboards, for example letting you set the order of dashboards in an app instead of keeping them in alphabetical order

4.5 Tableau CRM Dashboard Implementation – 18% (9 Questions)

  • Two types of Binding
    • Results
    • Selection
  • Selection and results bindings with static queries
  • Regression time series
  • Dynamic calculations using compare tables
  • Up to 4 grouping columns in a compare table
  • Default rows in compare table – 2,000
  • Default rows in a value table – 100
  • No of Queries per user per day – 10,000
  • Maximum Analytic API Calls per user per hour – 10,000
  • Maximum External Files uploaded to Einstein Analytics on rolling 24 hour period – 50 files for dataset
  • Timeout for ETL jobs that have been scheduled but not executed – 5 mins
  • Maximum number of Objects that can be enabled for Data Sync – 100
  • Salesforce Analytics Query Language (SAQL)
  • Order of Functions in SAQL – filter and order can be interchanged, offset must be after filter/order and limit must come after offset
  • 10 Concurrent Queries per user
  • SAQL Functions
    • coalesce –  get the first non-null value from a list of parameters, or to replace nulls with a different value
  • Dataflow Transformations
    • append Transformation – combines rows from multiple datasets into a single dataset
    • augment Transformation – adds columns to a dataset from another related dataset. The resulting, augmented dataset enables queries across both related input datasets
    • computeExpression Transformation – enables you to add derived fields to a dataset. The values for derived fields aren’t extracted from the input data source. Instead, platform generates the values using a SAQL expression, which can be based on one or more fields from the input data or other derived fields
    • computeRelative Transformation – analyze trends in your data by adding derived fields to a dataset based on values in other rows
    • delta Transformation – calculates changes in the value of a measure column in a dataset over a period of time. The delta transformation generates an output column in the dataset to store the delta for each record
    • digest Transformation – extracts synced connected data in a dataflow. Use it to extract data synced from an external Salesforce org, or data synced through an external connection
    • dim2mea Transformation – creates a new measure based on a dimension. The transformation adds the new measure column to the dataset
    • edgemart Transformation – gives the dataflow access to an existing, registered dataset, which can contain Salesforce data, external data, or a combination of the two
    • export Transformation – creates a data file and a schema file from data in a specified source node in your dataflow. After the dataflow runs, Einstein Discovery users can access these files through the public API
    • filter Transformation – removes records from an existing dataset. You define a filter condition that specifies which records to retain in the dataset
    • flatten Transformation – flattens hierarchical data
    • prediction Transformation – makes an Einstein Discovery prediction for a dataset
    • sfdcDigest Transformation – generates a dataset based on data that it extracts from a Salesforce object
    • sfdcRegister Transformation – registers a dataset to make it available for queries. Users cannot view or run queries against unregistered datasets
    • sliceDataset Transformation – removes fields from a dataset in your dataflow, leaving you with a subset of fields for use in a new dataset or in other transformations
    • update Transformation – updates the specified field values in an existing dataset based on data from another dataset, which we’ll call the lookup dataset

4.6 Einstein Discovery Story Design – 19% (12 Questions)

  • Einstein Discovery – business intelligence with statistical modeling and machine learning to identify, surface, and visualize insights into business data. Einstein Discovery uses:
    • Descriptive analytics to learn what happened in your historical data (descriptive insights)
    • Predictive analytics to reveal why it happened (diagnostic insights), what could happen (predicted future outcomes based on statistical probabilities), and what is the difference between variables (comparative insights)
    • Prescriptive analytics to suggest ways in which to improve your predicted outcomes (improvements)
  • Einstein Discovery Story – Einstein Discovery uses a story to perform a comprehensive statistical analysis of data powered by statistics, machine learning, and AI
  • 500 max story creations per org per month can be purchased more
  • 20 max story creation per org per day
  • Order of Einstein Discovery insights – most variation in outcome variable in descending order
  • Upper and lower limits on columns (vars) in discovery – 2 column minimum and 50 column maximum
