I got this same error when trying to do a similar project using Java.

The issue for me was I was missing one of the necessary dll files in the installation directory: metrics2.dll

I already had a metrics2.dll file in that directory before and had decided not to overwrite it with the file provided by the Tableau SDK. Once I overwrote it, the error stopped.

If you're on Linux, the file is libmetrics2.so

I hope this helps you or someone else encountering this issue.

Tableau SDK for reference here.
