Trying to connect to SharePoint Lists (JDBC) from Tableau server. Custom OAuth is configured. Validated and updated saved credentials but details are not getting reflected. Is anyone tried with SharePoint Lists (JDBC) connector?
Tableau server:2022.3.1 version

Hi, you may need to install the connector in Tableau Server. You can follow:
1. Download the packaged Sharepoint Lists (JDBC) Tableau connector (TACO) file or "cdata.sharepoint.taco", from the Tableau Exchange.
2. Move the .taco file to the following directory on each node of a Tableau Server instance:
Windows: C:\ProgramData\Tableau\Tableau Server\data\tabsvc\vizqlserver\Connectors
Linux: [Your Tableau Server Install Directory]/data/tabsvc/vizqlserver/Connectors
3. Download and install the SharePoint Lists JDBC driver from the Tableau Driver center. The JDBC driver ( data.tableau.sharepoint.jar) needs to be placed in the following directory on each node of a Tableau Server instance:
Windows: C:\Program Files\Tableau\Drivers
Linux: /opt/tableau/tableau/_driver/jdbc
4. Restart Tableau Server
