b. Username: Use the TABLEAU_USERNAME secret (e.g., "${TABLEAU_USERNAME}").
c. Password: Use the TABLEAU_PASSWORD secret (e.g., "${TABLEAU_PASSWORD}").
To filter for specific site and project, use the site and project_pattern fields.
When you're done, your recipe should look something like this
Click Next when you're done.
