SAP Build Apps - Rest API config display issue

[smckenna]

Hi, im just interested to know if this is a broader issue.  I noticed that i cannot click on any of the Rest API integrations and see their configuration. The firebase and OData ones work.  However my older REST API direct integration ones no longer allow me to click on them to update the configuration.   I noticed that there is a new format called "Universal REST API integration" which seems to work.   If i need to migrate my APIs to the new version - i cant set my configuration unfortunately.  Appreciate any help.

@Dan_Wroblewski  - wondering if the older API format is being depricated.

Old

New

Just to be clear: For any new REST APIs, you will use the "Universal" connector and this is fine with you? So the issue is you had existing entities created with the old REST connector that you can no longer even open and modify?

I looked up one of my old projects with a REST integration and I do see I cannot open it. I will check for more information.

I am told it is a regression that will be fixed in an upcoming release (no promises, of course)

Thanks Dan, appreciate the follow up. Yes thats the issue, I cannot open or modify, it seems like a wise move to not clone and re-build with the new universal versions moving forward. I use NGROK to access local server functionality while testing and therefore often update the URLs on old APIs.

Hello Dan,

I know this issue is recent and the team cannot promise resolve this but when the old REST was working I configure relative paths to accommodate multiple endpoint of the same database, e.g.: my.api/communication/all and my.api/communication/user, both endpoint retrieve a list of record and I set the relative path like this: my.api/communication/{path} to set the path when making the API call.
But since the old API stop working this issue also crashses when building the application because os the same relative path, the error below is from a error log I got after trying build to web:

...
Error: Command failed with exit code 1: node --max-old-space-size=12000 /app/current/node_modules/next/dist/bin/next build
⚠ Invalid next.config.js options detected:
⚠ Invalid input at "env.supportRelativePaths"
⚠ Expected string, received boolean at "env.supportRelativePaths"
⚠ Expected undefined, received boolean at "env.supportRelativePaths"

How can I proceed?

Thanks Dan, I can now get back into the legacy REST configuration, looks like a fix was applied. Cheers Steve
