# Validate Tableau Connected App

`POST /api/validate_tableau_connected_app`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://app.getdot.ai` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from)
- URL: `https://app.getdot.ai/api/validate_tableau_connected_app`
- Auth: one of:
  - API key in header `X-API-KEY`
  - API key in cookie `Authorization`
  - OAuth 2 (password, token URL `/api/auth/token`)

Probe a connection's Connected App (JWT): sign a token, try candidate
views via the Embedding API, and report whether Tableau accepted it — to the
logs drawer. Read-only against Tableau. Always returns 200 with a result so
the caller can render the log; failures are reported, not raised.

Pass `view_content_url` to probe a known-good view deterministically; without
it up to five recently updated workbooks are tried (which needs PAT to
enumerate).

  - `connection_id` string, required
