Tableau TabCMD without -u/-p attributes

Question

I am trying to create a SQL Server Agent Job that passes a tabcmd command to a remote Tableau server. I am hoping to use refreshextracts without explicitly passing a -u or -p attribute and, instead, use the AD account of the SQL Server Agent Service...

In short, can I use tabcmd with inherited permissions/access from Active Directory, rather than passing explicit username and password?

• At present, this functionality is not possible.
