Question

API endpoint: `/keystone/api/files/create` returns signin page in test files

Closed this issue 8 years ago · 1 comments

On Line 31 of test/api-react/file/1-File.js you make a call to an API endpoint, expecting a json value in return:

api.post('/keystone/api/files/create', {
            body: formData,
            responseType: 'json',
        }

That snippet returns the following error:

xhr:79 Uncaught InvalidStateError: Failed to read the 'responseText' property from 'XMLHttpRequest': The value is only accessible if the object's 'responseType' is '' or 'text' (was 'json').

However (in the name of science), if you change

responseType: 'json'

to

responseType: 'text'

then it simply returns the HTML of the login Page, which means the API calls in the test files aren't recognized as authenticated API calls?:

I've added a check to ensure it redirects you properly when you try and use this interface without being signed in.
