Hello @mlubicz
I think the issue is related to the installation of Tableau extraction extension in RapidMiner. I first installed rapidminer extension and then followed https://docs.rapidminer.com/9.1/studio/how-to/data-export/tableau.html this to download and use extract API. After this when I tried the example I got the same error which you were experiencing.
Now, I removed the extension in manager extensions and restarted rapidminer. Once again I just installed the extension from the market place and tried the example and it worked flawlessly. Did you try this?
I am using RM 9.2.001 on a windows machine
