Hi, I have a workflow where Fetch collection seems to not be working. In Xano, the test on it work fine. When I fetch from weweb its telling me there is a 401 code, which means the authentication token did not pass. But I know I am authenticated by looking at other areas of the app that require it.

Here is a screenshare showing my setup:

Did you bind the ‘notes\_id’ under collections to the URL you are fetching from Xano?

Url has to be /notes/{bind your variable here}

And also it’s expecting a meditation id in Xano so make sure you have that too

Where do you bind it? I didnt think I’d need the ‘notes\_id’ because when I test run it in Xano all I have to do is enter the meditation\_id and the auth user and it works. I don’t give it a notes id as an input.

If I’m supposed to in Weweb do I set that up as a header?

Actually, I fixed it by completely changing how I was looking it up. I Couldn’t see the forest through the trees and I made it m ore complicated than it needed to be lol

Hello everyone,

Still no explanation or solution to this problem?

I suspect a bug between Xano and Weweb in Xano plugins.

On my end, I have a notification system, including an API call to check the number of unread notifications. On Xano’s side: Query all records where notification.user\_id == auth.id AND readed\_at == null, with an output of type COUNT.

When I have unread notifications, everything works fine.  
However, when I have no unread notifications, Xano correctly returns 0 without any issue, but Weweb throws a 401 error.

Why?
