Question:
Why is the getCurrentMember() and createDraftPost() function in the Wix SDK with WixAppOauthStrategy returning an error, even though authentication is successfull with complete permissions?
Product:
Wix SDK, Wix API
What are you trying to achieve:
I’m trying to retrieve the current member’s information in Wix SDK using the getCurrentMember() function and use the current memberId to create a post using createDraftPost() function. Despite successfully authenticating using the Wix App OAuth strategy and other functions working correctly, this function consistently fails with a “FAILED_TO_FETCH_CURRENT_USER” error. My goal is to create draft posts based on the current member’s ID.
What have you already tried:
I have configured OAuth with proper app credentials and required permissions. Other functions like listMembers() work fine but not the getCurrentMember() and createDraftPost() .
Error: Failed to publish article to Wix: Error: {
"message": "UNAVAILABLE: Error fetching requester { siteMemberId: undefined }: UNKNOWN",
"details": {
"applicationError": {
"description": "UNKNOWN",
"code": "FAILED_TO_FETCH_CURRENT_USER",
"data": {}
}
}
Additional information:
Here’s a snippet of the code I’m using to authenticate and create a draft post:
const client = createClient({
modules: { draftPosts, members },
auth: WixAppOAuthStrategy({
appId: WIX_APP_ID,
appSecret: WIX_APP_SECRET,
accessToken: ACCESS_TOKEN,
refreshToken: REFRESH_TOKEN,
instanceId: INSTANCE_ID
}),
});
// const member = await client.members.getCurrentMember();
const response = await client.draftPosts.createDraftPost({
memberId: MEMBER_ID,
title: "Sample Title",
});
I’ve tried different approaches to get the current member’s ID, but the error persists. Any insights or solutions would be greatly appreciated.
