Navigate Visualizations with Assistive Technology

Starting in Tableau version 24.3, you can navigate Marks on all online visualization types on Tableau Cloud using a keyboard and other assistive technologies.

Note: Viz navigation isn't currently supported for server-rendered visualizations. To learn more about server and client-side rendering, see Configure Client-Side Rendering.

  1. To activate the experience, navigate to a visualization and press Enter.

  2. Select Enter again to navigate the Marks.

  3. Use the Arrow keys to navigate between headers, columns, and rows.

    If your visualization has a dual axis, or if it's a scatter plot or map, an additional navigation affordance appears. Use the Arrow keys to move the focus to a group of marks and select Enter to navigate the marks in the group.

  4. To navigate out of the text table, press Esc.

Note: Prior to entering mark-level navigation, you can use the Arrow keys to navigate different areas of the view, such as the header and axis.

  1. To open the View Data pane, move your focus to the viz and press Shift + Enter.

  2. Use the Arrow keys to navigate between headers, columns, and rows.

  3. To close the View Data pane, press ALT + F4 (Windows) or Cmd + W (Mac OS).
