Gatsby-Sanity-Source GraphQL Schema Not Found (Error: Session Not Found)

Last updated: Apr 17, 2020
Hi! My Gatsby site with the gatsby-sanity-source plugin keeps failing during build on Netlify:

1:35:58 PM: info [sanity] Fetching remote GraphQL schema
1:35:58 PM: error Error: Session not found
1:35:58 PM:     at Object.getRemoteGraphQLSchema (/opt/build/repo/frontend/node_modules/gatsby-source-sanity/lib/util/remoteGraphQLSchema.js:25:15)
1:35:58 PM:     at process._tickCallback (internal/process/next_tick.js:68:7)

Hi Sven! The error indicates that there’s an issue with authentication to Sanity. Are you using environment variables in local development by any chance? These are not picked up by Netlify, not even when placed in a file like 
.env.production
.
Instead, you’ll have to add these to Netlify using the instructions on this page:
https://docs.netlify.com/configure-builds/environment-variables/

I've added the environment files

And when I do a console.log of 
process.env
the variables are visible in the logs of netlify

Assuming you’re loading them correctly with those names on the site itself as well, it might be a different issue in this case. Have you double-checked your CORS origins on manage.sanity.io for the correct URL(s)? (Settings > API > CORS Origins)

OK, it works
