Recipe Objective - How to make a custom color palette in Tableau

Color palettes provide great meaning in any data analysis project. Color palettes play an important role in data visualization and in comparing data, charts, and visualizations from each other. Tableau has more than 30 default color palettes and a feature of automatic selection.

Steps to create a custom color palette.

Step 1 > Add "" and "" tags in preferences.tps file.

Step 2 > Add #eb912b (Orange hexadecimal), #ebe12b (Yellow hexadecimal), #e12beb (Pink hexadecimal), #2beb4e (Green hexadecimal) between color-palette tag with name "Categorical Palette" and regular type.

Step 3 > Connect the "Data Set- Inc5000 Company List_2014.xlsx" data set.

Step 4 > Drag the "Company" dimension and drop it onto the color under the marks card.

Step 5 > In the Edit colors option, Under select color palette, choose "Categorical Palette."

Our visualization using a custom color palette is Ready!
