Research direction
Start by tracing the library's PAT authentication entry point and how credentials are currently read before REST API calls. Define how named profiles and environment-variable fallback should behave, then add coverage showing profile selection and the token_name, personal_access_token, and site_id values used for authentication.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
Summary
I would love it if tableau authentication behaved more like AWS
I obviously can build wrappers for this, but this seems like pretty common functionality in python api packages. (Databricks,DBT,AWS,etc)
Request Type
I don't believe this would affect or be affected at all by rest API. as this is just some defaulting and setting before the API.
Description
Specifically allowing profiles to be specified or defaulting back to environment variables.
I imagine a profile would have the same information as the call for PAT auth
