Description

Thanks for filing a bug report! Please check out our docs on Filing a Bug with the SDK for guidance on what to include with your report.

Describe the bug
The example XML (oauthConfig.xml) in its current form will be rejected by Tableau Cloud for Snowflake using Custom IDP. If you do not modify this XML and add an OAuth Client for Snowflake with Custom IDP it will fail. This can cause issues for developers trying to set this up for the first time as even the example XML isn't correct for Tableau Cloud and Snowflake with Custom IDP.

In the example XML this entry is enabled:

        <entry>
            <key>OAUTH_CAP_SUPPORTS_CUSTOM_DOMAIN</key>
            <value>true</value>
        </entry>

When you enable OAUTH_CAP_SUPPORTS_CUSTOM_DOMAIN you need to provide it with a value or the XML is not accepted by Tableau Cloud.

In the current form of the example XML this entry needs to be:

  • Commented out
  • Removed
  • Set to "false"
  • Have a value for OAUTH_CAP_SUPPORTS_CUSTOM_DOMAIN

Adding a value for would satisfy OAUTH_CAP_SUPPORTS_CUSTOM_DOMAIN being enabled.

Otherwise the XML is rejected from Tableau Cloud.
