window.tableau is undefined in IE Edge when loading APIs

When embedding Tableau visuals into a page, we include Tableau JavaScript API. We tried different ways based on some of the support threads:

<script src="https://xxx.xxx/javascripts/api/tableau-2.0.0.min.js"></script>

<script src="https://xxx.xxx/javascripts/api/tableau-2.min.js"></script>

<script src="https://xxx.xxx/ie-sp-embed-javascripts/api/tableau-2.0.0.min.js"></script>

Every other browser, including IE11, is able to load the script and window.tableau is defined and used to create a visual on the page. The Edge browser fetches the script, as can be seen in the Network tab of the developer tools, but window.tableau stays undefined.

    Honestly not sure with this one. I tried loading a 10.5 viz in edge and was able to get it to load. Have you tried a different machine and a very simple embed to test?
