RapidAPI Client VSCode extension shows project retrieval error despite successful authentication

I’m having trouble with the RapidAPI Client extension in Visual Studio Code. Even though I successfully installed the extension and logged into my account, I keep getting an error message that says “Failed to retrieve projects error”.

The weird thing is that the extension shows I’m signed in and ready to sync my work. However, when I try to create a new project that should connect to my RapidAPI Studio account, nothing works. The sync feature isn’t functioning even though the login appears to be successful.

I’m using a Mac and I’m still pretty new to this whole setup. Has anyone else run into this issue before? I’m wondering if there’s a configuration step I missed or if this is a known bug with the extension. Any help would be great since I can’t move forward with my project until I get this sorted out.

totally familiar with that! try logging out and back in, it might help. also, clearing the extension cache sometimes does the trick. and check your permissions in RapidAPI Studio, that’s helped me before. hope it works out for ya!

I encountered a similar issue recently. Often, this type of error can stem from network restrictions. I recommend checking your network settings, including any active VPNs or firewalls that may interfere with VSCode’s connection to RapidAPI. Temporarily disabling your VPN could help establish a connection. Additionally, ensure that your company network allows API calls, as corporate restrictions may hinder functionality. Switching to a home network, if possible, might resolve the sync issue as well.

I faced this exact problem not long ago, and it was indeed frustrating. It turned out to be a compatibility issue between the RapidAPI Client extension and my version of VSCode. What ultimately resolved it for me was updating both to their latest versions and then completely uninstalling and reinstalling the extension. After reinstalling, I had to log back in. The extension’s interface made it seem like I was successfully authenticated when, in fact, API calls were failing. Once everything was up-to-date, the project sync started working again. It’s worth checking your current versions before trying other fixes.
