How to solve this error?

@Arathy-sivan, could you please provide more information on how to reproduce this problem? Are you using the todo-jwt example? Thanks.

@Arathy-sivan You probably didn't see my comment in the other issue. Please see https://loopback.io/doc/en/lb4/changelog.openapi-v3.html#breaking-changes

@Arathy-sivan You probably didn't see my comment in the other issue. Please see https://loopback.io/doc/en/lb4/changelog.openapi-v3.html#breaking-changes

Is this given to "openapi-spec.ts" file??

[hacksparrow]

@Arathy-sivan please share a simple app reproducing the error, I will take a look what's going on.

In the CredentialsRequestBody variable, change type: string to type: 'string' (notice it's a "string" instead of the JavaScript primitive String)

Just a friendly heads up, most open source company policies (mine included) disallow downloading unknown ZIP files directly due to security concerns - Please consider creating a GitHub repo that can be cloned by the developers. You can also create a separate GitHub organization just for these things so that it doesn't pollute your main GitHub account - This is what I do with https://github.com/achrinzatest and https://github.com/achrinzafork.

[Arathy-sivan]

In the CredentialsRequestBody variable, change type: string to type: 'string' (notice it's a "string" instead of the JavaScript primitive String)

There is no change in error when changing type

@Arathy-sivan please share the project on GitHub as mentioned by @achrinza.

You need to explicitly enforce the inference. Update the definition of your CredentialsRequestBody's schema and explicitly type it:

...
import {SchemaObject} from '@loopback/openapi-v3';
...

const CredentialsSchema: SchemaObject = {
  type: 'string',
  required: [],
  properties: {
    login: {
      type: 'string',
    },
    password: {
      type: 'string',
      minLength: 5,
    },
  },
};
...
const CredentialsRequestBody: SchemaObject = {
  ...
  'application/json': {schema: CredentialsSchema},
  ...
};

@Arathy-sivan I haven't followed all the discussion but looking at

const CredentialsRequestBody: SchemaObject = {
  ...
  'application/json': {schema: CredentialsSchema},
  ...
};

The type of CredentialsRequestBody shouldn't be SchemaObject, but RequestBodyObject instead. See an example of RequestBodyObject in https://github.com/strongloop/loopback-next/blob/7f764e109a23da5e03f9a0bee93ba0c7c7d21e81/packages/rest/src/__tests__/helpers.ts#L21.
