Descrizione

When connecting Tableau Desktop to Google Analytics or Google BigQuery, the following error may occur:

Authentication failed
Error code: 84223ADA
SSLHandshakeException PKIX path building failed: sun.security.provider.certpath.SunCertPathBuilderException: unable to find valid certification path to requested target

Cause

Tableau Desktop may be unable to connect to oauth2.googleapis.com because of SSL inspection (or HTTPS interception).

Risoluzione

Work with your IT team to add oauth2.googleapis.com to the bypass or exception list for SSL inspection.

To check for SSL interception, carry out the following steps to check the certification paths for https://www.googleapis.com/ and https://accounts.google.com/

In the Google Chrome browser, go to https://www.googleapis.com/
Click the padlock icon in the web address bar > Certificate > Certification Path tab.
Compare the certification path against that in the screenshot below.
Repeat Steps 1 to 3 for https://accounts.google.com/

https://www.googleapis.com/
