The connector does not function when the Elasticsearch data source is configured with authentication in the Tableau Online Sync Client.
The sync client logs indicate a 'password not found' error.
To fix this, a change is needed to pass the username/password credentials for the datasource as normal Tableau connection data. This puts these credentials in cleartext in log files and wherever the connector metadata is stored (Tableau Online, users with Tableau Desktop).
