App Loading Error Message in Simulator

AppSheet AppSheet Q&A

Hi Everyone,

Quite frequently when loading the app on the editor’s emulator, it displays the following error message:

When I click cancel, it proceeds to load normally without any other issues. The error only appears in the editor’s simulator, never when the app is opened itself.

What does this error mean, and is there anything I can do to fix it?

Thanks!

Quoted from Aleksi

“Hi, would you please remove all special characters from your Bot, Event, Process and Task names. I mean like “/”, “", “(”,”@” etc. and then check if the error disappear."

Thanks for the suggestion!

I tested a little bit, and it doesn’t seem to be making a difference whether there are special characters in the bot names. The error doesn’t appear all the time, only sometimes, and it doesn’t seem to affect any of the functioning of the app.

I would suggest that if in fact special characters are a problem in bots, there should be a notification to the editor that would stop them from saving an app with special characters.

Just an update:

I’ve tested it a few ways, and it seems to appear whether or not I have special characters in the Bot definitions.

@Steve I reached out to support last week, but have never heard back.

Does anyone else get these error messages?
