Tableau Server contents

There are four different types of content on Tableau Server: 

• Projects: The highest level; it is like a folder. You can only create new projects from the web. A project can contain other Sub-Projects, Workbooks, and Data Sources.
• Workbooks: Either created on Tableau Desktop and published here, or directly created in Tableau Server. Each Workbook is composed of one or multiple Views.

• Data Sources: Created on Tableau Desktop and published here. You can use them to build new analyses directly on the web.
