Why everytime i do something like this, I will get external user id missing error? Isn’t this the official pipeline documentation suggested implementation as in Connect API Proxy - Pipedream?
Could you help me and @U03CXTHK4RF
Yes, I have, but that is on later stage where I run the proxy .post request. But when initiing the client, I don’t
And it seems like it is stucked at initing the client, not passing to next stage for proxy post
Okay, this seems weird. I’ll check with the team and get back to you.
ok thank you
but strange tho, I can do things like this
Is it because there is some syntax confusion? I feel like this is a different object from the first client
Hm I’m a little confused on the implementation. Are you initializing the client from the frontend? What version of the SDK?
Let me check hold on
initialized from frontend
Oh, you need to initialize that client in your server. Weird error though.
import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk";
const client = new PipedreamClient({
externalUserId: user?.id,
tokenCallback: () => connectToken,
});
This does work
But this doesn’t work
import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk";
const pdclient = new PipedreamClient({
clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID,
clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET,
projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID,
projectEnvironment: "development",
});
Yea I think that’s expected, you definitely don’t want to expose your Pipedream credentials to your frontend. https://pipedream.com/docs/connect/api-reference/sdks#browser-usage
