Description
Describe the bug
When making an adjustment to a tiered license level on a site, trying to add the user for that tier too soon after can fail. Even if the server responds to one query with the correct number, the next query can return the old number. Unclear how long it takes for this setting to propagate.
Versions
Details of your environment, including:
- Tableau Server version (or note if using Tableau Online) 2022.1.1 (20221.22.0415.1144)
- Python version 3.8.10
- TSC library version 0.22
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior. Please include a code snippet where possible.
import itertools as it
import time
import tableauserverclient as TSC
# sign in to server as server admin
site = server.sites.get_by_id(server.site_id)
existing_limit = site.tier_creator_capacity
expected_limit = existing_limit + 1
site.tier_creator_capacity = expected_limit
site = server.sites.update(site)
results = [existing_limit] * 3
for i in it.count(1):
print(f"{i=}; {results=}; {expected_limit=}")
time.sleep(1)
site = server.sites.get_by_id(site.id)
results[i%3] = site.tier_creator_capacity
if all(r == expected_limit for r in results):
break
print(f"Got a matching result after {i} attempts.")Results
What are the results or error messages received? Can end up taking anywhere between 10 seconds and 3 minutes before a consistent response is returned from the API about the tiered license capacity.
