[Editorial workflow] Failed to load entry: API_ERROR
See original GitHub issueDescribe the bug Hi Gents, I have an issue with editorial workflow. When I am opening my index page in CMS with saved draft edits I see errors and endless loading:
Failed to load entry: API_ERROR: {“type”:“error”,“error”:{“message”:“No such file or directory: undefined”}}
In my dev console I see two network requests which failed with 404:
Request URL: https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/myrepo/src/12long-commit-name86/undefined?ts=1580890610467
Request Method: GET
Status Code: 404
Request URL: https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/myrepo/src/11long-commit-name22/undefined?ts=1580890610476
Request Method: GET
Status Code: 404
Screenshot of them: https://monosnap.com/file/nvmcrsA01HPikHaeYfTRQKFVNzgIrp
It is very strange because of “undefined” in the request URL. I thought the issue is maybe because I am using branch: ‘test’, but then I checked on the ‘master’ branch and I have the same issue. When no draft saved edits I don’t see such requests and any errors. Also when I am turning off editorial_workflow everything is working fine. I have another page(“about” page where I have only Title and body), for it, editorial_workflow works fine. Config.yml for index and about pages you can find below.
