The moment every BI team dreads

Every BI team eventually gets this message

A source system owner says a column is being renamed, or a table is being deprecated, and it's happening soon. Without dependency mapping, answering "what does this affect" means opening every workbook by hand and hoping nothing was missed.

A single missed dependency means a broken dashboard in production, discovered by an end user or an executive, not by the BI team.

In one enterprise Tableau environment, a single source table rename affected 38 workbooks, 137 worksheets, 19 calculated fields, 5 sets, and 3 groups. Investigating that manually would have meant hundreds of analyst hours. Rapid BI Catalog surfaced it in 30 seconds.
BROKEN Exec Summary — unnoticed 4 days
BROKEN Churn Alert — #REF error
BROKEN Account Health — wrong totals
OK Regional Sales — unaffected
OK Cohort Trends — unaffected
Why field-level matters

Field-level, not workbook-level

Knowing which workbooks touch a data source isn't enough to act on. You need to know exactly which field, in exactly which dashboard, is affected.

Object-level precision

See every dashboard, worksheet, calculated field, set, group, and hierarchy that depends on a specific field, not just a list of connected workbooks.

Documentation that stays current

Runs on a schedule across your entire Tableau Server or Cloud environment, so documentation reflects reality, not the day someone last updated it.

Built for the audit, not against it

Export impact lists directly to Excel for change control review, sign-off, or compliance documentation, in the format your process already expects.

How it works

From source change to full impact map

Three steps, no exports, no manual cross-checking.

01

Connect

02

Map

Every field, calculated field, set, group, hierarchy, and dashboard is indexed and linked, building a live dependency graph of your entire environment.

03

Trace

Select any field or table. See the full upstream and downstream impact instantly, exportable for review.
