Long running Jobs give connectionError when signing in
Describe the bug
I have a package where I standardize the way we're authenticating. So the server and tableau_auth are initialized on import of my package. Then downstream there are jobs that run anywhere from 10 minutes to 4 hours. But if they use
with server.auth.sign_in(tableau_auth):
print("do_anything")
It fails. Funnily enough, after it runs I can run the same function and it runs fine.
I can get around it by just trying multiple times for the sign in.
def sign_in():
for i in range(5):
try:
cxn = server.auth.sign_in(tableau_auth)
return cxn
except requests.exceptions.ConnectionError as e:
continue
except:
raise
if i == 5:
raise ConnectionError("Failed to connect after 5 attempts")
# and doing
with sign_in():
print("do_anything")
