Tableau Server does not have permission to redirect you to the browser. To fix this issue we are going to use the  **.jar**  file. Please follow the steps (I will be using the DynamicsCRM provider as an example).&nbsp;  
&nbsp;  
Go to C\*\*:\Program Files\CData\CData Tableau Connector for Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2022\lib\*\* and run the  **cdata.tableau.dynamicscrm.jar**  file. To do so, open your PowerShell and write these commands:

1. cd “C:\Program Files\CData\CData Tableau Connector for Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2022\lib”

2. java -jar .\cdata.tableau.dynamicscrm.jar

Fill in the required information and change the  **OAuthSettingsLocation**  to an accessible location, for example,  **C:\Users\Public\OAuthSettings.txt**.

After clicking  **Test Connection** , this method will redirect you to the browser and you be able to grant access. A file called  **OAuthSettings.txt**  will also be created in the  **C:\Users\Public**  path.&nbsp;  
&nbsp;  
To access your data, you can open the Tableau Server and provide the necessary information. Remember to specify the identical path in the  **OAuth Settings Location**  as the one in the  **.jar**  file, which in this case is  **C:\Users\Public\OAuthSettings.txt**. This will enable the driver to use the existing connection and grant you access to your data.
