I have created the "localhost" key. and it worked with https://localhost But not working for app://localhost.

Are both URLs different? If yes then how to create a key for "app://localhost"?

I have been facing this issue since 25 Apr 2023 before this it was working for both https://localhost and app://localhost.

I have an iOS mobile app developed with Cordova, using Cordova-ios 6.2.0. In this version, the default URL scheme is app:// and a hostname can be configured in the config.xml file. So the requests from the mobile app to the backend all originate from the app://localhost.
And I have created the API key for "localhost", Which was not working.

Thanks for using View SDK, sorry to hear that you are not able to get it to work and appreciate you sharing addional details about the issue. Usually this error occurs when we use invalid/incorrect client id or using correct client id in wrong domain etc. We need more details to debug further, request you to check your console network logs and confirm if the viewlicense call is failing like below.

I'm also having this issue. I can't add localhost to the allowed domains list for the API key and I get a 401 Unauthorized error when trying to preview locally. I know I don't have an issue with the incorrect client ID since I only have the one. Seems like a lot of people are having this localhost issue and it's a major blocker for development.

I had the same problem

Try using Firfox browser because I was working with google chrome but Firefox show you more info.

I had to add to my Content-Security-Policy this scripts:

Scripts:

https://documentcloud.adobe.com/view-sdk/main.js
https://documentcloud.adobe.com/view-sdk/2.10.3_1.10.0-1e3411b/ViewSDKInterface.js

 

Connect sources: 

https://viewlicense.adobe.io/

 

That was my last wall to run this library.
