# Extract Upgrade to .hyper Format

In Tableau version 2018, we introduced the `.hyper` format for Tableau extracts to replace the old `.tde` format. The `.hyper` format has been the standard format used by Tableau to create extracts since 2018, and the large majority of extracts are now `.hyper` files. Beginning in early 2023, Tableau discontinued support for the `.tde` format on Tableau Cloud and Tableau Public. For more details about this deprecation, see this [Tableau Community post](https://community.tableau.com/s/feed/0D54T00001BHiGwSAL).

## Discontinuation of support for .tde files

Beginning in 2023, the `.tde` format for Tableau extracts was deprecated. This format was replaced by the `.hyper` format in 2018 but continued to be valid for uploaded files until March 2023.

- This change took place for Tableau Cloud and Tableau Public as of March 2023.
- Beginning with version 2023.1.0 of Tableau Server, the uploading of `.tde` format files is disabled.
- 2024.2 is the last version of Tableau Desktop that supports any .tde-based workbooks, data sources, or bookmarks. Versions 2024.3 and beyond only support .hyper format.

## Manually upgrade your .tde extract using Tableau Desktop

If you manage extracts locally, you can manually upgrade your `.tde` extract to a `.hyper` extract using Tableau Desktop.

**Note**: This functionality is only available in Tableau Desktop versions 2024.2 and older.

1. In Tableau Desktop, open a workbook that uses a `.tde` extract.
2. Select the extract data source from the Data menu and then select Extract \> Upgrade.
3. Select File \> Save, which saves the workbook and also completes the extract upgrade.
