Regarding SSL connection with datasource #706

Hi,

I am trying to publish tableau workbooks using Python library and using MySql DB as datasource. I am facing the following issue:- 403007: Forbidden Workbook failed to establish a connection to your datasource.

I think its because my DB is on SSL and expects certificate provided by the client while making connection. It looks like there is no property in ConnectionItem where we can specify certificate and enable SSL connection. Is there a way to specify it? Or the issue can be because of another reason?

Would appreciate any help !

No sure if you resolved your issue, but I used the information below to resolve my SSL connection issues. https://community.tableau.com/s/question/0D54T00000F33bdSAB/tableauserverclient-signin-with-ssl-certificate

In my case: tableauServer.add_http_options({'verify': False})
