Unable to Add Tags to Workbooks Using REST API methods authenticated with JWT
Published: 06 Feb 2023 Last Modified Date: 07 Feb 2023
Issue
When trying to add tags to workbooks using REST API methods authenticated with JWT, the REST API fails with the error:
"401002 Unauthenticated Error".
Environment
Tableau Cloud
Resolution
Workaround 1
Use personal access tokens to authenticate the REST API requests to add workbook tags instead.
Workaround 2
Use the Tableau Server UI to authenticate the REST API requests to add workbook tags instead.
Cause
This is the expected behavior as the tags endpoint is not supported for JWT authentication. This ability to authenticate REST API requests to add tags using JWTs is not currently supported in the product.
