Receiving an `authentication has expired` error when trying to run queries in the IDE.

If you see a authentication has expired error when you try to run queries in the dbt CLoud IDE, this means your OAuth connection between Snowflake and dbt Cloud has expired.

To fix this, you'll need to re-connect the two tools.

Your Snowflake administrator can configure the refresh tokens' validity, which has a maximum 90-day validity period.

To resolve the issue, complete the following steps:

  1. Go to your Profile settings page, accessible from the navigation menu.
  2. Navigate to Credentials and click on the project you're experiencing the issue with.
  3. Under Development credentials, click the green Reconnect Snowflake Account button. This drives you through reauthentication through the SSO workflow.

If you've tried these step and are still experiencing this behavior, reach out to the Support team at support@getdbt.com for further assistance.
