For workbooks with embedded live Google BigQuery data sources downloaded from Tableau Server, re-publishing the workbookresults in an error:

"Publish failure This workbook contains a data source which requires embedded credentials. To save as another workbook, select " Embed password for data source.""

This occurs specifically for workbooks that are downloaded from the Tableau Server.
