Code-settings-sync: Sync "Not Found"

[DonSanto]

Visual Studio Code Version : 1.13.1
Code Settings Sync Version : 2.8.1
Operating System : macOS Sierra 10.12.4
Occurs On: Download and Upload
Proxy Enabled: No
GIst Id: Any Gist ID (New, Old)

When trying to Download the Gist settings, I just get the error message _Not Found_:

The Gist token is not saved to the settings. But even if I add it manually I still get that same error message.

[shanalikhan]

what is the exception in the developer console. Paste image

[DonSanto]

If you are referring to the _Debug console_ I get no output. Otherwise, I would like to know how to open the _Developer console_.

This is what I get

I got this same error on Windows 10 , VS code version is 1.13.1, today after installing https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=johnpapa.angular-essentials . I did an uninstall all (as it is a bucket extension for several others) but it is still giving "Error Not Found".

I then tried to uninstall and reinstall Code Settings Sync extension but again I'm still getting "Error Not Found". I'm uninstalling this extension until this bug is fixed as it's completely non-functional. @shanalikhan this is a super cool extension and I'm glad you've labored away at making it what it is. May you be victorious in solving this bug as well.

[gunnim]

Same error "Not Found"
I also get the same output in my developer console, but it ends with
[Extension Host] Sync : Connected with user : 'gunnim'

on windows 10, vscode 1.13.1

[scorchgid]

I am also getting this error. I've look on other posts and it says "well you've likely got the wrong gist". I haven't as I copied it straight from the source after resetting it and yes I did wait a few hours till trying it again. I tried restting the extension and uninstalling it and reinstalling the extension. No effect I am still getting Error Not Found.

I am on Linux Ubuntu 17.04. The following is the error message from the Dev Console

````

[shanalikhan]

can you guys try with the latest version ? and let me know

[gunnim]

Got 2.8.2 now, same error.
this is my settings file
{"ignoreUploadFiles":["projects.json","projects_cache_git.json"],"ignoreUploadFolders":["workspaceStorage"],"replaceCodeSettings":{},"gistDescription":"Visual Studio Code Settings Sync Gist","version":282,"token":""}

and this was output in vscode developer tools

[antonio-rodrigues]

Code Settings Sync : 2.8.2
Visual Studio Code : 1.13.1
Operating System: macOS Sierra 10.12.5
(vscode) Shift + Cmd + P: Sync: Download settings and Update / Upload settings
Sync settings:
{"ignoreUploadFiles":["projects.json","projects_cache_git.json"],"ignoreUploadFolders":["workspaceStorage"],"replaceCodeSettings":{},"gistDescription":"Visual Studio Code Settings Sync Gist","version":282,"token":"***********************************62bf1"}

All worked okay - no errors found.

Thank you!

[Code Setting Sync]
Version : 2.8.2
[Visual Studio Code]
Version : 1.13.1
Commit : 379d2efb5539b09112c793d3d9a413017d736f89
[OS]
Edition Windows 10 Pro
Version 1703
OS build 15063.413
and
macOS Sierra
version 10.12.5

Working for Me.
I check both Windows and Mac. I entered my PAToken to sync.gist by mistake.
Try below :
Ctrl + , (command + ,) -> setting.json -> "sync.gist": "<Enter your GIST ID here>" -> Ctrl + Shift + P -> Sync : Download settings
You need GIST ID, NOT TOKEN. Check your setting.json.
You don't need change syncLocalSetting.json.

You can confirm your GIST ID by the URL of your GIST. https://gist.github.com/<your account name>/<GIST ID>

Thank you.

[tangdaohai]

@mizutoki79 this right a way, It's working, thanks

[gunnim]

Yeah user error on my part as well...

[EliasCK]

I'm getting the same error as @gunnim
https://jumpshare.com/v/TwPgvGrUw5McsBZgGd60

Here are my settings:
{ "sync.gist": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx", // Generated this a thousands times, tried activating everything on the access token, no luck. "sync.lastUpload": "", "sync.autoDownload": false, "sync.autoUpload": false, "sync.lastDownload": "", "sync.forceDownload": false, "sync.anonymousGist": false, "sync.host": "", "sync.pathPrefix": "", "sync.quietSync": false, "sync.askGistName": false }

[shiamalon]

@mizutoki79 solved my issue, I think this is not super clear on the plugin instructions. thanks for the help.

[yalishizhude]

@mizutoki79 It works for me.
Please fix the bug ~ @shanalikhan

[remyvd]

@mizutoki79 solved it also for me. I was adding everytime the token. Now used the GistID in the URL and I could download my settings.

Plugin instructions are not clear in this.

[dankini]

@mizutoki79 solved for me too.

Existing screenshot in instructions kind of imply its the Token that should be entered. Should be edited with screenshot showing how to grab Gist ID from URL. Great extension otherwise.

[shanalikhan]

@DonSanto have you checked this solution of @mizutoki79 ?
https://github.com/shanalikhan/code-settings-sync/issues/343#issuecomment-312908504

I will add line to view the readme to check the uploaded gist by URL

[shanalikhan]

I'm closing this issue.
Documentation updated.
This message is also changed to let user know the URL from which he can verify the gist

[DonSanto]

Yes, finally I've got this working. Thanks @mizutoki79.

The instructions still are not clear. Please remove the image where you highlight the token ID. it is really confusing. Thanks.

[ksmithut]

I'm still running into this error, and the gist id is definitely correct. I'm definitely using the gist id:

"sync.gist": "********",

then gist.github.com/******** redirects to my gist. But still getting the not found error. It is a secret gist, not sure if that makes a difference...
