Research direction
Start with samples/create_extract_task.py and samples/create_schedules.py, especially the DailyInterval example, then reproduce the task creation against Tableau API 3.24. Done means a Daily schedule without weekday arguments creates a task running once at 5:40 AM, while explicitly listing all weekdays does not produce an hourly schedule.

Description
Describe the bug
When creating an Extract Refresh task with a Daily schedule following the provided example, I either get an "Error 500" from the server or a task that's running every hour instead of once a day.
Versions
Details of your environment, including:
- Tableau Server version: Tableau Cloud 2024.3.0 (20243.24.1011.1935) 64-bit Linux
- Python version: 3.11.10
- TSC library version: 0.33
To Reproduce
When following the example code above with a Daily interval as described in this sample
tableau_auth = TSC.PersonalAccessTokenAuth(TOKEN_NAME, api_token, SERVER_SITE)
tableau_server = TSC.Server(SERVER_URL, use_server_version=False)
tableau_server.version = '3.24'
with tableau_server.auth.sign_in(tableau_auth):
workbook = TSC.WorkbookItem(name=WORKBOOK_NAME, project_id=project)
daily_interval = TSC.DailyInterval(start_time=datetime.time(hour=5, minute=40, tzinfo=datetime.UTC))
daily_schedule = TSC.ScheduleItem(None, None, None, None, daily_interval)
target_item = TSC.Target(workbook.id, 'workbook')
extract_item = TSC.TaskItem(None, 'FullRefresh', None, None, None, daily_schedule, None, target_item)
tableau_server.tasks.create(extract_item)
I'm getting he following error:
Internal error 500 at https://eu-west-1a.online.tableau.com/api/3.24/sites/288c88d2-8f35-4faa-b71c-bc082f0ded3c/tasks/extractRefreshes
b'<?xml version=\'1.0\' encoding=\'UTF-8\'?><tsResponse xmlns="http://tableau.com/api" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://tableau.com/api https://help.tableau.com/samples/en-us/rest_api/ts-api_3_24.xsd"><error code="500000"><summary>Internal Server Error</summary><detail>The server encountered an error and cannot complete your request. Contact your server administrator.</detail></error></tsResponse>'
Now if instead I declare the list of weekdays in the Daily interval:
daily_interval = TSC.DailyInterval(datetime.time(hour=5, minute=40, tzinfo=datetime.UTC),
'Monday', 'Tuesday', 'Wednesday', 'Thursday',
'Friday', 'Saturday', 'Sunday')
then a Refresh Task is created but it's scheduled to run every hour instead of once a day at 5:40AM as expected.
