Research direction

Start by reviewing the library's Tableau Server REST API support for publishing data sources and its handling of credentials. Determine how Snowflake key pair authentication should be represented when a data source is published to Tableau Cloud. Done means the supported credential flow is implemented and verified against the relevant publishing behavior.
