Explanation:
The query is referencing a table or view that does not exist in the database.
You may have connected to the wrong database, mistyped a table name or forgot to specify the schema.
Recommended Action:
Usually no action required as this occurs mostly with typos in interactive sessions.
Sometimes application code generates table names (e.g. with timeseries data split up by date), where you may also see this error occur when there are ordering issues, i.e. a table gets queried before it was created.
