 - **Why do some dimensions use different syntax, like `metric_time` versus `[Dimension('metric_time')`?**<br />
 	When you select a dimension on its own, such as `metric_time` you can use the shorthand method which doesn't need the “Dimension” syntax. However, when you perform operations on the dimension, such as adding granularity, the object syntax `[Dimension('metric_time')` is required.

+title: I'm receiving an `Failed ALPN` error when trying to connect to the dbt Semantic Layer.
+description: "To resolve the 'Failed ALPN' error in the dbt Semantic Layer, create a SSL interception exception for the dbt Cloud domain."
+sidebar_label: 'Use SSL exception to resolve `Failed ALPN` error'
+---
+
+If you're receiving a `Failed ALPN` error when trying to connect the dbt Semantic Layer with the various [data integration tools](/docs/use-dbt-semantic-layer/avail-sl-integrations) (such as Tableau, DBeaver, Datagrip, ADBC, or JDBC), it typically happens when connecting from a computer behind a corporate VPN or Proxy (like Zscaler or Check Point). 
+
+The root cause is typically the proxy interfering with the TLS handshake as the dbt Semantic Layer uses gRPC/HTTP2 for connectivity. To resolve this:
+
+- If your proxy supports gRPC/HTTP2 but isn't configured to allow ALPN, adjust its settings accordingly to allow ALPN. Or create an exception for the dbt Cloud domain.
+- If your proxy does not support gRPC/HTTP2, add an SSL interception exception for the dbt Cloud domain in your proxy settings
+
+This should help in successfully establishing the connection without the Failed ALPN error.
