The Backendless team is fixing it. Last time they fixed it very quickly, it should not take long.

@Ari_Kerzner

We need steps to reproduce the problem. It would be great if you could specify which method returns the error. And if this method has a request body, specify what is passed there when the error is reproduced.

Inna

I am just a user so I do t have this information

28

Why do you think there is a problem again? Are you seeing any errors?

29

All my webhooks are failing

30

I don’t see any errors in the ui but it’s just not loading tables or info

31

We will need more information in order to reproduce the problem. If you are not the app developer, ask them to contact us to resolve the issue.

Hi Mark,

Calls to the database seem to be working fine, it’s only cloud code functions that are failing. It’s the same error that was occurring on January 9th (Error: Service invocation failed: Unrecognized token ‘MY_STRING_HERE’: was expecting (JSON String, Number, Array, Object or token ‘null’, ‘true’ or ‘false’))

33

Hi Brandon,

What is the name of the API service and the name of the method?

Please provide sample data for the method arguments so we can reproduce the issue.

Regards,
Mark

Hi Mark,

I’ll PM you the requested details.

The cloud code functions seem to work when calling from the backendless control panel but not when calling from the client.

35

From my testing, the problem seems to be triggered by calling a cloud code function with only one parameter, and that parameter is not an object - functions with no parameters or 2 or more parameters work fine, or functions with an object as the parameter.

It seems to be fixed by wrapping the parameter in an object - i.e.

Backendless.APIServices.invoke(
        "MyService",
        "MyCloudCodeFunction",
        "paramaterstring"
      ).then((result) => {

currently fails to invoke the service, however

Backendless.APIServices.invoke(
        "MyService",
        "MyCloudCodeFunction",
        {paramaterName: "paramaterstring"}
      ).then((result) => {

does not fail to invoke the service.

The first method of calling a cloud code function, without wrapping the parameter in an object, definitely did work last week though.

What is your application ID?
Have you tried invoking the method from backendless console?
