I followed the steps on https://jss.sitecore.com/docs/client-frameworks/getting-started/app-deployment to get my local starter app connected to my local sitecore install.

In the nextjs app it works fine, but in the experience editor I was getting a strange error: "A potentially dangerous Request.Path value was detected from the client (:)"

While debugging the error in nextjs I saw a strange value in the itemPath: enter image description here This all happens in this file: node_modules\@sitecore-jss\sitecore-jss-nextjs\dist\cjs\middleware\editing-render-middleware.js

As a hack I replaced the "https://https" in the return:

Now it works fine in the exp editor, but I assume I must have something not configured right.

Does anyone have an idea what's wrong here?

  • Welcome to sitecore stack exchange. How is your hostname configured in the config of the app? Do you have one set or have it as the default one? Mar 10, 2021 at 17:10
  • why is it even 2 https in your request? it should be 1 Mar 11, 2021 at 2:50
  • @CristiVulturar Yes, this is in my configuration: <app name="jss-nextjs-app" sitecorePath="/sitecore/content/jss-nextjs-app" graphQLEndpoint="/sitecore/api/graph/edge" inherits="defaults" serverSideRenderingEngine="http" serverSideRenderingEngineEndpointUrl="localhost:3000/api/editing/render" serverSideRenderingEngineApplicationUrl="localhost:3000" /> In my .env file the reference to sitecore is made with this line I believe: SITECORE_API_HOST=jsssandbox.sc

  • @MaheshRaghupathi I know it should be one, that's why I got the temporarily hack in place...

The problem was the configuration of the hostname:

https://jsssandbox.sc should've been jsssandbox.sc It works like a charm now!
