Tableau Input tool error "Specified Table does not exit"

Fenrick

Hello,

Currently I am trying to use the Tableau input tool(Tableau Input Tool | Alteryx Help) to pull data from my company's tableau server.  I have been able to enter my credentials and connect to the server, as evidenced by the fact that under "Connected to" it lists the proper Tableau server. Furthermore, I am presented with Data and Select Project options, as well as Select Data Source options. 

However, when I go to run the workflow ( which merely consists of the Tableau input tool and a browse tool), I am told that I need to provide a table name.  So I do, but then I get the message that "Specified table does not exist:<table name>. Context:0x7bd02a3b

I have googled this to no end and to no avail. Any help would be appreciated

is there a way to change the name of table from table1 to something else?

agree, Select correct 1. Project and 2.Data source on the DATA tab. And then switch to OPTIONS tab and type "table1" that worked for me. Thank you for your input.
