TT-12006 Syncing does not pick up API config changes

[laacz]

While evaluating tyk, and testing tyk-sync in particular, I ran into an issue where it does not pick up changes within file svc-test-bearer.json.

tyk-sync version: 1.4.0 tyk version (run via docker): 4.3.3

.tyk.json:

{
    "type": "apidef",
    "files": [
        {
            "file": "client-mtls-api.json",
            "oas": {}
        },
        {
            "file": "ip.json",
            "oas": {}
        },
        {
            "file": "keyless-plugin-api.json",
            "oas": {}
        },
        {
            "file": "protected-api.json",
            "oas": {}
        },
        {
            "file": "svc-test-bearer.json",
            "oas": {}
        },
        {
            "file": "svc-test.json",
            "oas": {}
        }
    ]
}

Within svc-test-bearer.json I changed use_keyless from false to true. Then I ran the sync command:

Screenshot from the repo:

Grepping from tyk config:

grep keyless ../tyk/apps/svc-test-bearer.json

Result:

  "use_keyless": false,

tyk-sync sync -g http://localhost:8080/ -s sdmnakjsdnakslmdakslmdaklmda -b refs/heads/main git@my.repo.tld:user/tyk-sync.git

Output is as follows:

Let's check if use_keyless has been changed. Again, grepping from tyk config:

grep keyless ../tyk/apps/svc-test-bearer.json

Again - result:

  "use_keyless": false,

So, it's obvious, that syncing does not work when changing contents of the app definition. Documentation is not clear if this is a bug or feature.

its happening because of extra / in /tyk/apis/, due to this update calls were going to get call and we are getting 200 but actual update is not happening.
