Hi, you may use:

import jwt
import tableauserverclient as TSC
import datetime
import uuid
Client_id = "f27a043b-c771-4b18-a1a1-007e120293a3" 
SecretValue = "nijAJ5p"
SecretID = "aaa0e3"
siteId = ''
token = jwt.encode(
        {
            "iss": Client_id,
            "exp": datetime.datetime.utcnow() + datetime.timedelta(minutes=10),
            "jti": str(uuid.uuid4()),
            "aud": "AHMADSA",
            "sub": "dmartinez@modux.co",
            "scp": ["tableau:content:read","tableau:workbooks:*","tableau:projects:*","tableau:datasources:*"]
        },
        SecretValue,
        algorithm="HS256",
        headers={
            'kid': SecretID,
            'iss': Client_id
        }
    )
print(token)
server = TSC.Server('https://tableau-qa.park-edw.com')
tab_auth = TSC.JWTAuth(token,site_id=siteId)
with server.auth.sign_in(tab_auth):
        print("signed in")
        workbooks, paginator = server.workbooks.get()
        for wb in workbooks:
            print(wb.name)

Basically you need the tableau:content:read in the scopes:

And in the auth object site_id=siteId
