# About Tableau Semantics

With Tableau Semantics, you can create and manage your semantic models. Before you start using Tableau Semantics, review requirements and other introductory information.

- **[Tableau Semantics Licenses and Permissions](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=analytics.c360_a_sl_licenses_and_permissions.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    Tableau Semantics is available in several standard Salesforce editions and may require a license depending on your use.
- **[Billing Considerations for Semantic Layer](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=analytics.c360_a_billing_considerations_for_semantic_layer.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    Use of the semantic layer impacts the consumption of credits used for billing in these usage types.
- **[Data Governance in Tableau Semantics](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=analytics.c360_a_sl_data_governance.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    Data governance in Tableau Semantics ensures that you see and work with only the authorized data. Governance combines dataspace permissions with Data 360 security policies. These policies determine who can view semantic models and what data is available during model design and when running queries in Tableau.
- **[Explore the Tableau Semantics Interface](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=analytics.c360_a_sl_explore.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    You can create and define semantic models in the Semantic Layer in Data 360. Here you can see all the semantic models that exist in your org. You can create new semantic models, edit them, and even clone them directly from here.
- **[Accessibility Support in Tableau Semantics](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=analytics.c360_a_sl_accessibility_support.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    Use keyboard shortcuts in the semantic model editor to improve productivity. Navigate between different panels, perform actions on the canvas, and manage objects using only your keyboard.
