Create a Semantic Model in Tableau Semantics

Create a semantic model to serve specific business needs directly from Data 360. There are three ways to create a semantic model: start from scratch, extend an existing semantic model, or build it using a Data 360 data kit.

User Permissions Needed

To create a semantic model:

Permission set:

Data Cloud Architect

AND

Semantic Models object

In Data Cloud, on the Semantic Layer tab, click New Model.
Select Start with a New Model and then click Next.
Select the data objects for your semantic model. You can select up to 100 objects.
After you select an object, the object’s fields are listed on the right. All fields are selected by default.
To not include a field in the semantic model, deselect it.

Note Certain field names, like primary key fields, are required, so you can’t remove them. You also can’t remove calculated insight fields to maintain data integrity. Field types that aren’t supported field types are disabled.
Click Next and then enter the model information.
Give the model a descriptive name and an API name, and enter an optional description. You can’t change the API name after the model is created.
Click Create.
Review the objects to include before you start building the semantic model.
The relationships between DMOs in Data Cloud that were created before are added to the model. Relationships that create circular relationships — references to the same object multiple times — are removed.
