Fail to extract data connecting Tableau Desktop to Gainsight

I can connect to Gainsight NXT in SFDC from Tableau Desktop using the Gainsight Web Data Connector.  When Tableau Desktop is trying to start building an extra, it throws an error. Any idea how to resolve this?

      Got a reply from GS support that it is a new bug that will look into.  My next questions are 1) What version of Tableau Desktop that you use which successfully connect to GS?  2) Can JDBC/ODBC be used?

        @bennychan We are using web data connector and JDBC/ODBC cannot be used to connect to Tableau.

        I will check with my team on the Tableau desktop versions that support Tableau-GS connection and get back to you.

          I’m also having this issue using the WDC, having tried multiple versions of Tableau Desktop (2021.3, 2021.2, 2019,3)
