Can't login - Something went wrong

[sdragnev]

Something did go wrong indeed.
A perfectly good application was made vulnerable to server issues in the name of the mighty dollar.

I don't want to rant at hard-working developers but this is a perfect example of why software-as-a-service is horrible for users.

Similar issue here when loading Organizations. Insomnia simply won't load for me now

[JohnnySanabria]

I'm also having an issue with login. Upon opening the application, it hangs for a while and eventually starts display the message in the image.

[sdragnev]

Could you explain? I'm not that up-to-date with Insomnia. What's new?

The app didn't use to require a login to access your data. Which was the reason I preferred it to Postman.

[filfreire]

Hi folks, we were experiencing issues with the Insomnia API infrastructure.

It should be back working now. We're investigating the issue further to prevent it from happening again.

We'll share more details as soon as possible.

In my experience, when Insomnia updates the application, stuff typically ends up breaking, or they change the UX in some small annoying way. Like, you used to be able to right-click on requests to bring up a menu, but now you have to click on the tiny little carrot. So, in an effort to innovate, they sometimes break or lose existing features which is obnoxious.

In today's situation, I got a notice when opening the app about all the wonderful new features they just added and then I couldn't login to the app.

Opened a discussion on removing the forced login: #7362

[NoahCxrest]

Same issue here.
I think that Insomnia's website that faces the app is down, judging by the fact that it uses Electron.
Hope this is fixed soon!

Edit: insomnia-api://insomnia/v1/organizations times out and does not respond (on macOS)

[rmzi]

App is moving at a snail's pace after the most recent update -- any word on a fix?

[mauriciodaluz]

I'm facing the same issue! Does anyone know if it's possible to retrieve collection data directly from the Insomnia config folder? I'm in a hurry and just need my collection (using linux mint)

@filfreire Currently seeing this issue today. Attempting sing in with Google SSO. Spins for a while, then errors with Invalid authorization code

[chrismowbray]

I just got in.

[ilyasKerbal]

@notjaywu Thanks for the guidance I was able to solve the problem

[solorisx]

@filfreire Yes, it works via CURL (we only use Postman locally, not through Postman servers). Although 9.2.0 works again today as well, so not sure what the problem was.

[jose-vass-itti]

Same issue here

[Zervandez]

I'm having the same issue in Ubuntu.

[JohnBarhorst-mastery]

Same issue here, can't login with email credentials.

-- got in right after posting this.

[Zervandez]

@chrismowbray me too.

[subnetmarco]

We are currently investigating this issue.

[phsc84]

I'm having the same problem. Really annoying. A quick solution would be much appreciated.

[gatzjames]

👋 @phsc84 this seems to be an actual issue with an invalid code.
Can you try again? I'd suggest clicking on "Launch" to automatically launch the app:

[ilyasKerbal]

Faced this problem today: "Invalid code: Failed to fetch"

[notjaywu]

@ilyasKerbal Could share the Console logs? You can find it at View -> Toggle DevTools -> Console. It helps us identify the root cause, thank you!

[phsc84]

👋 @phsc84 this seems to be an actual issue with an invalid code. Can you try again? I'd suggest clicking on "Launch" to automatically launch the app:

Whatever has changed, today it works again!

As our internet browser is in an isolated environment the "Launch" button does not work and I always have to paste the token manually.

[solorisx]

I am no longer able to login (with 9.2.0):

The GET request to https://api.insomnia.rest/auth/whoami with the same headers works fine if I try it in Postman. Do you have any idea how to solve this?

Version: Insomnia 9.2.0
Build date: 15.5.2024
OS: Windows_NT x64 10.0.19045
Electron: 29.3.0
Node: 20.9.0
Node ABI: 121
V8: 12.2.281.27-electron.0
Architecture: x64

EDIT: Downgrading to 9.1.0 fixed the issue for me, the whoami request no longer fails.

[notjaywu]

@solorisx did you set x-session-id when testing in Postman? Seems the request /auth/whoami from v9.2.0 doesn't include the header x-session-id.

[solorisx]

@notjaywu Yes, I did. I used these headers:

The request from 9.2.0 does seem to include the session id:

[notjaywu]

thanks for your information @solorisx. did you get any response code from the backend for the /auth/whoami requests? I just noticed that it doesn't show the status code in the General section in your image.

[solorisx]

@notjaywu I did not get a status code back, just net::ERR_UNEXPECTED.

[filfreire]

@solorisx when you send exact same request via CURL, does it work then? (asking because sometimes sending through postman is not sending directly from our machines, but through postman servers)
