Description:
"How do you display counts in Tableau?"

I accidentally stumbled upon this popular Google search question and it looks like a lot of people are inputting this query!

It turns out, there are multiple ways to display counts in Tableau. Which method is right for you all depends on what you're trying to display the count of.

I've narrowed it down to three main counts you might be trying to show.
•A count of rows in the data source
•A count of rows with valid values in the data source
•A count of unique values in a column from the data source

Does one of those sound like what you're trying to accomplish? Check out this video to learn how to display counts!
