Cannot read property 'id' of undefined

I’m getting this error when trying to invoke a post transaction. I can do a get transaction with no error but if I try to do a post I get the following error:

I’m authenticating my swagger api with auth0 with no problems so I cant figure out what could be the problem - hopefully ye have seen something like this before and might be able to point me in the right direction 👍

Oh, I know what the issue is, gimme a sec.

[simonmullaney]

Turned out it was a problem with my .env file.

I just hardcoded the values into my env.ts file instead and the error disappeared.
