# Setting Up SuperTables In a Dashboard

Let's setup SuperTables in Dashboard. Let's get started!

## 1. Prepare a Worksheet

Create a worksheet containing the data for SuperTables. We will be using the Superstore dataset for this guide.

1. **Create a New Worksheet:** For example, Name it 'ST Worksheet'.
2. **Add Data:** Drag all columns from the left pane into the 'Detail' marks card.

## 2. Prepare a Dashboard

Integrate the worksheet into a new dashboard.

1. **Create a New Dashboard:** Name it 'SuperTables'.
2. **Add the Worksheet:** Drag and drop the 'ST Worksheet' into the dashboard.
3. **Hide the Worksheet:** This ensures the worksheet is available without being visible.
   1. Make the worksheet floating.
   2. Set the X and Y positions to 1 and the W and H sizes to 1 under the 'Layout' pane to keep it invisible.

## 3. Add SuperTables to Your Dashboard

Add the SuperTables Extension.

1. **Add Extension Object:** Drag the Extensions Object from the Dashboard pane into the dashboard

1. **Import SuperTables:**
   * If you have a TREX file:
     * Click on 'Access Local Extensions'
     * Navigate to the TREX file and select the TREX file.
   * Alternatively:
     * Search for SuperTables in the Tableau Exchange
     * &#x20;Click add to the dashboard.
2. **Authorize Extension**: Click ‘OK’ to allow the extension to run in your dashboard.

## 4. Configure SuperTables

Set up SuperTables for your data.

1. **Open Configuration**: Click the bright pink configuration button on the landing page.
2. **Select Worksheet**: The ‘ST Worksheet’ should be selected by default, displaying all its dimensions and measures. If you have multiple worksheets on the dashboard, select the desired one from the ‘Datasheet’ dropdown on the top left.
3. **Apply Settings**: Hit ‘Apply & Close’ to view your data in SuperTables.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.infotopics.com/supertables/getting-started/quick-start-guide/setting-up-supertables-in-a-dashboard.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
