I have a notebook in my Microsoft Fabric Synapse Data Engineering environment. Whenever I run the notebook after a period of inactivity, it throws an error with a standard session. However, if I run it with a high concurrency session, it does not throw an error. How can I overcome this issue so that running it after a period of inactivity with a standard session does not result in an error? Is it possible to achieve this?

Hi @santh00 ,
Thanks for using Fabric Community.
There are a few ways you might be able to overcome the error you're encountering
1. Check for Connection Timeouts: Standard sessions might have lower connection timeouts compared to high concurrency sessions.
2. Refresh Connections: Another possibility is that the notebook loses its connection to external resources during inactivity. You can try adding a code block at the beginning of your notebook that refreshes the connections before running the main logic
Hope this is helpful. Please do let me know incase of further queries.

Hi @Anonymous,
How to I add a code block to refresh connection can you give me a example.
Hi @santh00 ,
I mean you can always create connections at the start of the code. So incase if any failure occur you can re execute that code cell for connections.
