Serverless-stack-com: Comments: Call the Create API

[jayair]

Link to chapter - http://serverless-stack.com/chapters/call-the-create-api.html

[nerdguru]

In the NewNote.js edit for handleSubmit, the path should be "/" instead of "/notes" since, when you create the back end the full path will be /prod/notes so by making the handleSubmit string "/notes" it'll try to make the REST call to /prod/notes/notes and fail.

Alternatively, you could be more specific in the config.js portion of this page to specify what you mean by YOUR_API_GATEWAY_URL

[PatrykTies]

Just make

apiGateway: {
    URL: 'https://ngh4urud.execute-api.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/prod',
  },

But I now have Cors issue where it seems its not enabled.
Fetch API cannot load https://ngh4urud.execute-api.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/prod/notes. No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin 'http://localhost:3000' is therefore not allowed access. The response had HTTP status code 502. If an opaque response serves your needs, set the request's mode to 'no-cors' to fetch the resource with CORS disabled.

[jayair]

@nerdguru added some context to it - 49da60e3aacf20bcede1b1f03433122783b312b2

@PatrykTies you can check your serverless.yml to see if you've enabled CORS there - https://github.com/AnomalyInnovations/serverless-stack-demo-api/blob/master/serverless.yml#L43

[frittate]

After taking it so far, all I when I try to submit the note is an alert that says "failed to fetch". I also had a problem with the curl in this chapter: http://serverless-stack.com/chapters/deploy-the-apis.html but I wasn't able to resolve it. The error there was "Internal Server Error"... Can you give me a pointer where I should start looking for more information on the problems?

[jayair]

@frittate I think you should debug the Create API. Here is a way to debug it and view and logs - https://github.com/AnomalyInnovations/serverless-stack-com/issues/28#issuecomment-297097300

Let me know if that makes sense.

@martinsaporiti, the authorizer arn should start with arn: it should look something like

          authorizer:
            arn: arn:aws:cognito-idp:us-east-2:311966611455:userpool/us-east-2_wk567VfjN

Serverless: Removing old service versions...

[ghost]

What does this line check for?

body = (body) ? JSON.stringify(body) : body;

[jayair]

@petrovm We are checking if the body is passed in to the call. If it is then we JSON encode it and make a request with it.

[d3sandoval]

Hi, I was one of the unlucky ones who had to upgrade my API in the middle of the tutorial to use IAM to authenticate, instead of the arn. I looked at the changelog and did a new serverless deploy with the updated create/delete/get/list.js files + serverless.yml.

I am able to test the api with the apig-test command from the terminal and get a 200 response:

Authenticating with User Pool
Getting temporary credentials
Making API request
{ status: 200,
  statusText: 'OK',
  data: 
   { userId: 'us-east-1:7d88cdb0-5140-422f-9859-1d9afac66456',
     noteId: 'f2d07fc0-70ed-11e7-9cfd-8d2f175b56c4',
     content: 'hello world',
     attachment: 'hello.jpg',
     createdAt: 1500955294140 } }

But when I try to create a note from my /notes/new page, I get the following error:

I've made sure to update the IAM policy to reflect the changes in the "create an identity pool" doc: https://github.com/AnomalyInnovations/serverless-stack-com/commit/717fcd89f33c6d7dd5ee5c2c2b5560136b115331#diff-8bccc23bba3c2ea21eb1a1cbea8b2ff3R80

Is there something I'm missing? Any help is very much appreciated :)

[mikhael28]

@frittate - I am also getting an 'unable to fetch' error - what did you do to resolve your issue?

Update: I changed the URL in my config to /prod instead of /prod/ and this has issued a different error message, saying "Error: {status:false}

My repo is here: https://github.com/mikhaelbendavid/serverlessblog

Update - I updated the IAM role permissions to allow for put request to dynamo db requests! It works!

[d3sandoval]

Nevermind, I forgot a closing "}" in this line: https://github.com/AnomalyInnovations/serverless-stack-demo-client/blob/call-the-create-api/src/libs/awsLib.js#L51

Also noticed that the compiler does not like sigV4Client.js since "Line 220 exceeds the maximum line length of 100":

This can be fixed by simply breaking the line:

// If there is no body remove the content-type header
// so it is not included in SigV4 calculation

[jayair]

@d3sandoval Thats interesting. Can I see what version Create React App are you using? create-react-app --version

[anguaji]

Hi all,

I'm getting things not imported - which libs are to be imported in awsLib.js?

./src/libs/awsLib.js
  Line 6:   'getAwsCredentials' is not defined  no-undef
  Line 10:  'AWS' is not defined                no-undef
  Line 11:  'AWS' is not defined                no-undef
  Line 12:  'AWS' is not defined                no-undef

[jayair]

@anguaji Hmm it looks like you might have missed a step from the previous chapter? We install and import the AWS SDK in src/awsLib.js.

[copperspeed]

Hi - I am receiving a 403 cors issue and cors is turned off. What could be the problem?

Fetch API cannot load https://*******.execute-api.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/prod/inventory. No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin 'http://localhost:3000' is therefore not allowed access. The response had HTTP status code 403. If an opaque response serves your needs, set the request's mode to 'no-cors' to fetch the resource with CORS disabled.

[anguaji]

@jayair thanks! I'd missed the definition between two hunks of code :)) thanks!

[jayair]

@copperspeed Can you check the CloudWatch logs to see if you are getting anything there?

[ramonpm]

I'm having the same CORS problem here, and my serverless.yml is the same of this https://github.com/AnomalyInnovations/serverless-stack-demo-api/blob/251d1defa682c70c7af770ba386b2069ef3eefda/serverless.yml#L42

[jayair]

@ramonpm Does calling the Create API directly work for you (like in this chapter - http://serverless-stack.com/chapters/test-the-apis.html)?

[ramonpm]

Yes @jayair, it works for me when I call it directly.

@ramonpm The other thing to check would be if you are returning the proper headers like so - https://github.com/AnomalyInnovations/serverless-stack-demo-api/blob/master/libs/response-lib.js#L13.

[ramonpm]

@jayair, thanks for your reply.
Unfortunately my response-lib.js is exactly the same as well...

[jayair]

@ramonpm Can I see a screenshot of the error that you are seeing in the browser console?

[jonsaw]

I'm having the same issue too. Screenshot attached:

[jayair]

@jonsaw Can you check the CloudWatch logs for the create notes Lambda?

[jonsaw]

@jayair no logs from yesterday and today.

[jayair]

@jonsaw Can I see your serverless.yml? And the IAM role attached to the Cognito Identity Pool? Here are some instructions on how to look it up - https://github.com/AnomalyInnovations/serverless-stack-com/issues/112#issuecomment-317204545.

Thanks for the quick response @jayair .

[jayair]

@jonsaw All this looks good. And I'm assuming you got through the Test the APIs chapter?

If so, then can you host your backend code so I can take a look?

[jonsaw]

Yes, got OK for the test APIs chapter.

Sure, backed code hosted here.

[jayair]

@jonsaw Just tried your backend with my react app and the CORS part worked. Of course the request itself failed because I don't have your DB.

Can you host your frontend code as well and I'll take a look?

[jonsaw]

@jayair I'll post it. But in the meantime, I was looking at the console and I noticed I got the following response headers:

content-length:358
content-type:application/json

[jayair]

@jonsaw Yeah that's a good clue. It seems like the signature for the request was not calculated properly. Let's take a look at the frontend.

[dailenspencer]

Hey guys,

Great tutorial! I'm running into an ERR_NAME_NOT_RESOLVED error when initiating the invokeApig call to create a new note. Screenshot here

Any ideas would be helpful! Thanks

[jayair]

@dailenspencer That sounds like you are not able to hit that URL from your local machine. Did the step where you tested the APIs work for you?

[dailenspencer]

@jayair Thanks for the quick response. Just got back to my keyboard. Here is a screenshot of the test - you will see the data comes back empty; Not sure why this is.

Update: seemed to narrow down the issue. The above terminal command was executing my list.js lambda function for some reason, hence the empty array returned. Inside my serverless.yml I had the following

list: # Defines an HTTP API endpoint that calls the main function in list.js # - path: url path is /notes # - method: GET request handler: list.main events: - http: path: notes method: post cors: true authorizer: aws_iam

the method property was set to post which made it identical to the create method. My lambda ended up being confused and called the list.js function instead of the create.js function.

[jayair]

@dailenspencer I just noticed in your original screenshot that you are trying to connect to the API endpoint that we have in the tutorial. Replace that with the one you are using in the apig-test command and give it a try.

[dailenspencer]

@jayair Right. Solved that one as well - forgot to mention it on here. All is working well! Thanks for the assistance. Next step is to implement this functionality(Lambda and CognitoUserPool authentication) in Unity/C# app :)

[jonsaw]

@jayair, published my frontend code here.

I've also cloned the frontend from this repository but with the config set to my servers. I am getting the same 403 error.

Fetch API cannot load https://xxxxxxxxxx.execute-api.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/prod/notes. No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin 'http://web.mhub.local:3002' is therefore not allowed access. The response had HTTP status code 403. If an opaque response serves your needs, set the request's mode to 'no-cors' to fetch the resource with CORS disabled.

With the following body.

{"message":"'ap-southeast-1/execute-api/aws4_request' not a valid key=value pair (missing equal-sign) in Authorization header: 'AWS4-HMAC-SHA256 Credential=AXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/20170825/ ap-southeast-1/execute-api/aws4_request, SignedHeaders=accept;content-type;host;x-amz-date, Signature=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'."}

[jonsaw]

Got it to work! There was a space in one of my configs which caused the authorization header to mess up.

{"message":"'ap-southeast-1/execute-api/aws4_request' not a valid key=value pair (missing equal-sign) in Authorization header: 'AWS4-HMAC-SHA256 Credential=AXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/20170825/ ap-southeast-1/execute-api/aws4_request, SignedHeaders=accept;content-type;host;x-amz-date, Signature=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'."}
                                                                                                                                                                                          ^ " " SPACE!!

@jonsaw Just to make sure other people find this and understand it; which config had the extra space?

[jonsaw]

@jayair sure thing!

export default {
  apiGateway: {
    URL: 'https://xxxxxxxxxx.execute-api.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/prod',
    REGION: ' ap-southeast-1',
          // ^ " " extra space 
  },
  cognito: {
    USER_POOL_ID : 'ap-northeast-xxxxxxxxxxx',
    APP_CLIENT_ID : 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
    REGION: 'ap-northeast-1',
    IDENTITY_POOL_ID: 'ap-northeast-1:xxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxx',
  },
  MAX_ATTACHMENT_SIZE: 5000000,
};

@jonsaw Ah makes sense. Thanks for posting it.

For future readers... I also had the "Failed to fetch" CORS issue. It seems like this can be caused by any issue with the inputs provided to sigV4Client or a misconfigured Serverless deployments. sigV4Client is a bit tricky b/c it will always sign your requests with the information you provide it, even if that is the wrong information. I was able to debug my situation by returning to the "Test the APIs" chapter, which I had skipped over in haste, and by investigating the logs for my create lambda function. I ultimately found two issues... (1) In my serverless "iamRoleStatemements" block of the serverless.yml file I forgot to change the Resource ARN to point at the correct region, in my case "us-west-2." and (2) In my React config I specified a URL ending in "/prod/notes" rather than just "/prod." So needless to say, this particular error is a bit annoying because it can span your frontend and backend code as it did in my case.

@tmaxxman Thanks for sharing your debugging details. It'll be pretty helpful.

I was getting a 403 error on the OPTIONS request. Everything seemed configured properly, and running the apig-test command in Test the APIs chapter was fine. Turns out I had a spurious single quote in config.js:

  apiGateway: {
    URL: "https://7tsfnkxjl3.execute-api.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/prod'",
    REGION: "us-west-2"
  },

Note the extra ' at the end of the /prod' in the URL. Hope this helps someone else.

running into some issues calling apis from react app, any ideas ? when i use the test.. I get following response:

Authenticating with User Pool
Getting temporary credentials
Making API request
{ status: 403,
  statusText: 'Forbidden',
  data: { Message: 'User: arn:aws:sts::xxxx:assumed-role/Cognito_notesidentitypoolAuth_Role/CognitoIdentityCredentials is not authorized to perform: execute-api:Invoke on resource: arn:aws:execute-api:us-east-1:********9445:xxxx/prod/POST/notes' } }

[walshe]

strangely when the UI hits the list function, it actually reaches the function but get a 500 inside due to a pretty empty event.requestContext.identity:

cognitoidentity id is

{"cognitoIdentityPoolId":null,"accountId":null,"cognitoIdentityId":null,"caller":null,"sourceIp":"xx.xxx.xxx","accessKey":null,"cognitoAuthenticationType":null,"cognitoAuthenticationProvider":null,"userArn":null,"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_11_1) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/63.0.3239.108 Safari/537.36","user":null}

[walshe]

followed this to resolve my issue - https://serverless-stack.com/chapters/debugging-serverless-api-issues.html
turns out of course that the original api prefix that I had specified in the role policy was now wrong because a new 'serverless deploy' had deployed apis to new url prefix

Upon attempting to log in, I was getting the following error:

TypeError: __WEBPACK_IMPORTED_MODULE_0_aws_sdk_global__["util"].crypto.lib.randomBytes is not a function. (In '__WEBPACK_IMPORTED_MODULE_0_aws_sdk_global__["util"].crypto.lib.randomBytes(128)', '__WEBPACK_IMPORTED_MODULE_0_aws_sdk_global__["util"].crypto.lib.randomBytes' is undefined)

I'm running AWS SDK version 2.188
Downgrading to version 2.177 fixes the problem.

[jayair]

@zipper1972 Thanks for reporting. Some other folks had run into this issue as well. Something was off on the AWS SDK end.

[mochfauz]

I got this issues man

[jayair]

@mbahfauz Have you solved this already? I see some of your other comments about other issues.

[ringoyip0901]

Whenever I call this API or try to create a note, I get the following error. Any advice or pointers? Thank you! I'm pretty sure I set all the cors to be true on my serverless.yml file. I also read through all the comments above but none of the solutions seemed to work for me. The status code is 401.

[jayair]

@ringoyip0901 Did this chapter work for you - https://serverless-stack.com/chapters/test-the-apis.html?

If it did then we might have to look at the logs to see what is going on.
