What is the API endpoint in production?
My development environment has port 3000 for the app and 3001 for api. When I deploy to production the site works but the API endpoint does not seem correct. What is the API endpoint in production?
KHi @Ghar. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
K----------------------
The API endpoint in production is determined by the URL of your server (the app's backend). Wasp automatically sets it during development when you run
You can access it like this:
This will log the API endpoint URL to the console.
Also, ensure that you have set the
This is especially important if you are running your app in a production environment or if you have changed the default ports.
For more details, you can refer to the Wasp documentation on accessing the app configuration (https://wasp-lang.dev/docs/advanced/accessing-app-config#client-configuration-object).

KSorry @Ghar, I seem to be having a bit of trouble. Don't worry though, I've pinged my support and they will try to fix me up! :technologist:
Perhaps try again in 15mins?

MThe API endpoint is the one your client uses to send its requests to - you can see this in the Network tab of the browser dev tools. Usually if you deploy your fly this is <your-app>-server.fly.dev.
Locally we use different ports like 3000 and 3001 to mean the client and the server. When we deploy stuff it’s usually different domains or subdomains that are used.

GThanks - If I use a custom domain, I should still send the API requests to <your-app>-server.fly.dev? Is that configured using the REACT_APP_API_URL
GIf I do that then I need to handle CORS?
MWe touch on that in the docs here: https://wasp-lang.dev/docs/advanced/deployment/manually#deploying-a-wasp-app
If you set the env vars correctly, Wasp handles CORS for you
If you deploy to Fly via the Wasp CLI, there isn't much to worry about. If you're deploying manually - there answers in the docs as well.

This document explains how to build and prepare your Wasp app for deployment.
