 This project contains a tutorial designed to explain the various components of authoring and using a Dashboard Extension in Tableau.
 
-This tutorial demonstrates a number of different aspects of the Dashboard Extensions API. The goal of this extenison is to display a data table summarizing the selected marks on a particular worksheet on a dashboard (similar to clicking view data on a tooltip). When the selected marks change, we want to update the data table with the newly selected marks. Then we will add functionality which allows the user to click on any column of data in the selected marks and filter the viz down to the domain of that column.

+## What can you do with a dashboard extension? 
+
+Plenty! Using the Extensions API, you can create dashboard extensions that enable customers to integrate and interact with data from other applications directly in Tableau.
+
+* Integrate with third-party APIs inside the dashboard.
+* Use third-party charting libraries like `d3.js` to add custom visualizations.
+* Create an extension that has write-back functionality, so users can modify data in a viz and have that change automatically update the source data in the database or web application.
+* Build custom viz and interactivity types, such as a filter replacement with a custom interface and network diagram.

-The Extensions API and Embedded API share a similar programming model, but there are differences. The two APIs are not designed to be used together. In the Embedded API, the `Viz` or `VizManager` is the highest-level object. However, in the Extensions API there is no object model or concept for a `Viz` or `VizManager`. For the Extensions API, the workbook is the highest-level object a developer interacts with.

+Update of the Tableau Extensions API 
+- Tableau Extensions API library: `tableau-extensions-0.12.8.js`
+- Tableau Desktop, Tableau Server (from [Extensions API Developer Preview](https://prerelease.tableau.com/project/home.html?cap=52e2710a0793434d82142736c7ab3029){:target="_blank"})

+Changes in this release:
+
+- This release of Tableau introduces a minor change in the workbook format that affects extensions. If you saved a workbook with an extension using an earlier version of Tableau, and then open the workbook with this current Tableau release, the workbook will open, but it will not have the extension. You will have to add the extension back in using the latest release of Tableau.
+
+Bugs fixed in this release:
+
+- Certain keyboard shortcuts were intercepted by Tableau and not passed on to the extension. This is now fixed, with the excecption of **cmd + V** on Mac, which will be fixed in a later release. ([Issues #76](https://github.com/tableau/extensions-api/issues/76))
+- Calls to `getSummaryDataAsync()` or `getUnderlyingDataAsync()` would not return the correct data types for the columns. Column property `datatype` returned `string` for all columns, regardless of actual data type of column. 
+- Web Authoring would throw an exception when an extension is added. 
+- XSD validation of `minApiVersion` accepted only single digit version numbers  (for example, `0.12` would fail).
+- Permissions denied error message would disappear after the dashboard zone was reloaded.
