Simba error loading metadata

I am using Simba ODBC driver to connect to a MongoDB database from Tableau. I use default config and get an Error: There was an error loading metadata:

That's it. No details. I manage to connect to other databases from the same MongoDB server, but not to the one I need.

Does Simba have some logs somewhere? Where or what should I check for details or for a fix?

Solution

  • This was a bug with Simba version 1.5.3. It is solved in newer versions.
