Using Joins In Tableau
In the lecture titled "using joins in tableau" the data files that are loaded appear to automatically be connected. When i load the data files, they do not connect. Any idea on how to connect them as shown in the lecture?

Hi,Thanks for your question.
What do you mean by 'they do not connect', please?
Could you provide a screenshot?
Thanks!

Hi Lucy,
Good to hear from you.
Is your primary data source the same one as in the lesson, please?
By the way, we've started re-doing the entire course on Tableau and will correct such discrepancies. That's one. And the other thing I wanted to share is that we will post The Complete Data Visualization Course in a week and it will contain a lot of content on Tableau.
Best,
Ned
Figured this out: To create a join you have to grab the SHEET that you want, which is located right beneath the data source. Grabbing the data source doesn't do anything, but if you grab the sheet and drag it over to the open area it will create the join that we need. Hope this helps.
