apiClient is not created, and can't fetch plans from API

[Adam-Kuhn20]

We are trying to update from Typewriter 7.4.1 to 8.0.3.

I'm trying to regenerate our analytics with the new Public API Token. After running yarn typewriter init, I'm able to go through the steps just fine with no issue. On completion though no client is created (docs)

Additionally, when I run yarn typewriter or yarn typewriter build, after doing yarn typewriter init. I receive the following error Error: Unable to fetch Tracking Plan from local cache or API.

I'm not sure why I get this error, because when I do yarn typewriter init I'm able to see all of the tracking plans and select the one I want.

I managed to get around that error by updating the id in the typewriter.yml file.

Previously it was rs_XXX which is the resourceSchemaId, but now it seems to require the actual id of the tracking plan which is tp_XXX. You can get it by calling GET https://api.segmentapis.com/tracking-plans with your token, or inspecting the Network in the Segment app.

So now I don't get the error anymore, but it gets stuck on the Loading tracking plans... ⡿ step.

This is also an issue that I'm running into, the id of the tracking plan is correct, there's just nothing being generated.

If I downgrade to 7.x, everything works correctly.

Thanks for the detailed report, we're checking this. Could anyone with this issue share the output when running the command with the --debug flag?

Here's my output:

``` $ typewriter update --debug typewriter:config Loaded raw config { client: { sdk: 'analytics-js', language: 'typescript', languageOptions: {} }, trackingPlans: [ { id: 'tp_XXX', path: 'src/app/utils/segment/generated' } ], scripts: { token: 'echo $TYPEWRITER_TOKEN', after: './node_modules/.bin/prettier --write ./src/app/utils/segment/generated/plan.json' } } +0ms typewriter:config getToken { method: 'pipe' } +4ms typewriter:config getToken { method: 'script', token: 'sgp_XXX', isValid: true, workspace: { id: 'XXX', name: 'XXX', slug: 'XXX' } } +804ms typewriter:config Selecting Token { method: 'script', token: 'sgp_XXX', isValid: true, workspace: { id: 'XXX', name: 'XXX', slug: 'XXX' } } +1ms typewriter:api Loaded 1 rules.

It seems to be loading each and every rule one at a time, as seen here, and it's taking a long time, but it succeeds eventually.

Then it fails with this error API request failed. Using local copy of undefined instead which seems to be thrown here.

My guess is that something's failing in sanitizeTrackingPlan and gets caught by that try/catch.

@andreiho I think your assumption is spot on. I can already see that we missed the page size from being bigger than 1 for starters. Doing some tests right now
