Error on client auth when calling function from CDF UI

You have solved the problem but it is not the best approach. You don’t need to neither instantiate the client not use the config or env file.

Based on the error “client is not defined”, I am thinking that you are not passing the “client” as the first argument for the function hence the error.

You should have two parameters for you function.

1. client
2. data 

The client parameter automatically gets passed to the function by the wrapper program and you don’t need to do anything except use it inside your function. 
 

The second parameter is used to pass other function-specific parameters.

Please let me know if this resolves the issue otherwise I can provide further guidance.

Thx

@Raluca Bala I want to make sure that you saw my message. My concern is that you are missing the fundamental understanding of Cognite Functions and I would like to fill the gap. If you would like to chat more about it, please let me know and we can get in a meeting.

Thanks

Hi @dinesh.makked ,

Thank you for your answer, but initially this was how I've uploaded my function and tried to run it with the 2 parameters (client, data) . It throws the error I printed in the first post. I don't pass anything for data as it's not needed.

I've gone through all the examples for function in documentation and in cognitedata repos so I think I've tried to use it as understood from materials.

It may be related to specific rights in CDF? I am able to create and run the function so it wouldn't be this.

Regards,

Raluca

Sounds good. Thanks for your reply!
