Currently, R developers need to stop running the extension in their existing R session, then use mock_tableau_request() to generate a mock request, copy the output, restart the extension, then input the copied output from mock_tableau_request(). This process is clunky and unintuitive.
Alternatives:
An endpoint on the router that is automatically generated that generates a mock request and returns it inside the OpenAPI docs
A mechanism (probably an RStudio extension) for running these extensions as a background job (RStudio only) so the main R session remains free to generate the mock Tableau request.
