Error: Cannot Select - (CT) Missing VIEW CHANGE TRACKING Permission
Issue
While trying to include a table in the connection schema, the following error appears:
Cannot select - (CT) Missing VIEW CHANGE TRACKING permission
Environment
- Connector: SQL Server
- Incremental update method: Change tracking (CT)
Resolution
To resolve this issue, grant the Fivetran user permission to view CT metadata for each affected table using the following query:
GRANT VIEW CHANGE TRACKING ON [<schema>].[<table>] TO <username>;
Cause
This issue occurs when you enable CT on a table, but the Fivetran user lacks permission to access the table's CT metadata.
