Facing the error Consult the documentation

Hey guys
I have been trying to resolve this issue for few days now, not able to fix this. I have posted in the community but sadly no replies yet. It was completely working with Oauth v1. However now I have changed it to use v2.

Oauth Version 1 submit invoice working fine
xero.invoices.put(invoice)

Oauth version 2 submit invoice line below
accounting_api.create_invoices(xero_tenant_id, invoice, True)

Getting the following error:
Working outside of request context. This typically means that you attempted to use functionality that needed an active HTTP request. Consult the documentation on testing for information about how to avoid this problem.

Hey @bishwadeep, apologies for the delay. If you're still having this issue, could you confirm at which step this error is thrown? Is it when initializing the Xero client, the auth flow, or when calling create_invoices. That's a flask error so I think the issue might be with the sample app not the SDK
