Error calling startSnapping

Getting the following error from startSnapping:

Optional(Error Domain=SCSDKCreativeKitErrorDomain Code=1 "error_description_invalid_argument" UserInfo={NSLocalizedRecoverySuggestion=Please check documentation for potential mistakes. Please content snapkit-support@snap.com if problem persists., NSLocalizedDescription=error_description_invalid_argument, NSLocalizedFailureReason=})

I can't find any results for what "SCSDKCreativeKitErrorDomain Code=1" could mean and thought I should ask here.

What I'm passing in, roughly:
A SCSDKVideoSnapContent("...") // pass in a file:// URL pointing to a video saved to my app's cache directory

  • sticker: nil
  • attachmentUrl: nil

Snap also isn't opening when I run the following code, maybe of some significance. The error doesn't print either.

let snap: SCSDKSnapContent = SCSDKNoSnapContent()
snap.caption = "Woah"
snap.attachmentUrl = "https://www.facebook.com/"
let snapAPI = SCSDKSnapAPI()
snapAPI.startSending(snap) {(error: Error?) in
    print("error \(error!)")
}

Update: fixed this^ issue by making snapAPI a class variable, via #5 (comment), but still running into the original error.

Not totally sure how but I got things working.

My updated code:

    fileprivate lazy var snapAPI = {
        return SCSDKSnapAPI()
    }()

    @objc
    func shareToSnapchat() -> Void {
        let url = URL(string: "...") // remote video URL on s3
        let video = SCSDKSnapVideo(videoUrl: url!)
        let snap = SCSDKVideoSnapContent(snapVideo: video)
        snap.caption = "Testing"
        snapAPI.startSending(snap) {(error: Error?) in
            print("Oh noo \(String(describing: error))")
        }
    }

Some of the things I changed in the process that may have helped:

  • In my app's "version" in the snapkit dashboard, I had to change the description before I could set it as my staging version. Before it was saying "Failed to save app due to an unknown error"
  • My bundle ID was set for iOS production. I switched it to iOS staging.
  • I made snapAPI a class variable
  • I rewrote the code that called the snapAPI from a tangled mess to roughly the above
  • 👍1
