Data 360: Impact of Deploying via Data kit on existing External Integrations Connectors.

This is currently an expected behaviour as we manage multiple Data Stores and the main reason for the Setting the connnector to Inactive during Data kit Deployment is to ensure that the user reauthenticates,allowing the correct metadata to be propagate across the Data Stores. Without this crucial step, the connector might show as ACTIVE on the screen but may not have the correct metadata across our stores which invariably would cause Data 360 (formerly Data Cloud) assets breaking/failing to run.

To reauthenticate the External Integrations connection, please follow these steps:

1. Navigate to Data 360 Setup.
2. Select the type of Connector that was deployed (e.g., if the data kit includes a Snowflake DLO, click on Snowflake).
3. From the drop-down menu, select "Activate" and proceed to reauthenticate.
4. Once the connection is active, the data stream should function as expected
