Not Authorized error When searching in discovery-nodejs from localhost

[jdellaria]

When following the instructions in the readme file to Run the demo locally I am I am getting a "Not Authorized" error.. I have created my discovery service and have all the associated password and logins in the .env file

Good morning @jdellaria. Exactly the same the problem when I launched it for the first time. I strongly believe it is something related with the app.js file. Take a look at this part:

const discovery = new DiscoveryV1({ // If unspecified here, the DISCOVERY_USERNAME and // DISCOVERY_PASSWORD env properties will be checked // After that, the SDK will fall back to the bluemix-provided VCAP_SERVICES environment property username: 'XXXXXXXXXXX', password: 'YYYYYYYYYYY', version_date: '2017-11-07', });

• please take also into account the fact that no <> or {} should be before and after the username and password.

Replace the XXX and YYY by your own credentials. It worked for me. Also, replace the .env.example file with your own data. It is Laravel related, but as I keep it updated it still work.

I hope your app is up and running soon. Best regards :-)

As @pegomez said, you need to use your credentials in order to run the demo. See https://github.com/watson-developer-cloud/discovery-nodejs#setup-a-ibm-watson-discovery-service
