I walk through the new project tree feature in Tableau Server and Tableau Cloud, introduced in Tableau 2025.1. It's a side menu icon on the Viz Portal that lets you browse and search projects across your whole instance without clicking into each one.

## Key takeaways

- The project tree icon sits at the top left of the Viz Portal in Tableau Cloud and Server in 2025.1.
- Clicking it opens a side menu that lets you browse nested project folders across your entire instance without navigating into them.
- It only displays projects you have access to.
- You can search by typing part of a folder name, and it surfaces the parent and nested subfolders.
- This was a community-requested idea that Tableau finally implemented in 2025.1.
