Error Package signature verification failed during connection creation

Error text:

Unexpected Error
There was a problem while running the connector plugin. Reinstall the plugin or contact the plugin provider.
Note that you might need to make local configuration changes to resolve the error.
Error Code: 14D18B1F
Package signature verification failed during connection creation.

This is likely due to due to Tableau bug tableau/connector-plugin-sdk#401 ideal solution is to install latest patch (or a later version). Workaround is to launch Tableau with the allow unsigned property/flag DisableVerifyConnectorPluginSignature set to true.

Windows

"C:\Program Files\Tableau\Tableau 2019.4\bin\tableau.exe" -DDisableVerifyConnectorPluginSignature=true

Apple Mac OS X

/Applications/Tableau\ Desktop\ 2022.4.app/Contents/MacOS/Tableau -DDisableVerifyConnectorPluginSignature=true
