Hi, are you using the quotation marks in CMD?
taco run --app-path "C:\Program Files\Tableau\Tableau 2025.2\bin\Tableau.exe"
Alternatively you may:
a. Add your taco to the Tableau Repository Connectors folder:
b. Create a directory (C:\Taco\Try) where you will create a folder per each connector (C:\Taco\Try\Earthquake) where you will store the manifest.xml file of your connector:
And then run Tableau Desktop from CMD using something like:
"C:\Program Files\Tableau\Tableau 2025.1\bin\tableau.exe" -DConnectPluginsPath="C:\Taco\Try" -DDisableVerifyConnectorPluginSignature=true
Adjust the paths accordingly.
