Addressing implicit bias in technical language

In an effort to align with one of our core company values, equality, we have changed terminology to be more inclusive where possible. Because changing terms in certain places can cause a breaking change, we maintain existing terminology in the following places:

  • Tableau APIs: methods, parameters, and variables
  • Tableau CLIs: commands and options
  • Tableau Resource Monitoring Tool installers, installation directories, and terms in configuration files
  • Third-party systems documentation

For more information about our ongoing effort to address implicit bias, see Salesforce Updates Technical Language in Ongoing Effort to Address Implicit Bias on the Salesforce website.
