API call not working

Hi, Newbie here, I tried making an api call to openfoodfacts but I keep getting this error. It works when I make the api call in the address bar but doesn't seem to work in the buildship environment. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks Hamish

Hi @Hamish we tested the worldopenfood facts api - using the API call node and it is working fine. https://world.openfoodfacts.org/api/v0/product/20891299.json

You can make a request using the API Call node - https://docs.buildship.com/utility-nodes/api-call-node.

I have a OpenFood Facts API node that all of a sudden is returning: { "status_verbose": "product not found" } for the past couple of days. Not sure why. I'm using the same endpoint as you: https://au.openfoodfacts.org/api/v0/product/${productId}.json` Suspect something is up on the OFF side. I'll let you know if I find a solution.

Yeah... I'm having exactly the same issue. I even recreated the node using the SDK and am getting the same result. It's really strange. API calls using the exact same barcode on the API docs site is producing a result. This is the new node that we all should probably be transitioning to anyway (away from v0)... when we can work out what the block is.
