Terraform Cloud API token unauthorised if logged out of HCP website

Terraform HCP Terraform
1

Hi,

I’ve noticed that ever since (I think) linking my TF Cloud account with my HCP account, if I’m logged out of HCP website (and, in turn, TFC), running terraform CLI for a TF configuration configured to use Terraform Cloud fails with

Error: Failed to read organization "<myorg>" at host app.terraform.io
Encountered an unexpected error while reading the organization settings: unauthorized

The error occurs even when a valid user API token exists in terraform.d/credentials.tfrc.json (confirmed by successfully re-running terraform login)

After I log into HCP in my browser, terraform CLI commands work fine.

I may be misremembering, but I don’t think this was happening before linking my TFC account to HCP.

Is this intended behaviour? Can it be disabled?

Thank you!
