What provides the interactive Prep Flow experience in the browser?

The interactive Prep Flow experience in the browser is powered by Tableau Prep Flow Authoring. This feature allows users to visually prepare and clean data directly in their web browser, enabling a more flexible and intuitive approach to data preparation tasks. Through the use of an interactive interface, users can connect to different data sources, apply various transformations, and see the results of their actions in real-time.

Tableau Prep Flow Authoring enhances user productivity by allowing users to create, edit, and share data preparation workflows without needing to have Tableau Desktop installed. It also promotes collaboration among team members as they can easily access and work on shared data flows.

The other options do not provide this specific interactive experience in the browser. Tableau Prep Conductor is more focused on scheduling and automating flows rather than directly enabling interactivity within the browser. VizQL Server is responsible for rendering visualizations and does not pertain to data preparation features, while SAML Service relates to security and authentication, rather than the data preparation process itself. Thus, the focus on interactive capabilities in web-based data flow preparation is distinctly attributable to Tableau Prep Flow Authoring.
