Possible issue with the render call?

[dcburke1]

I'm currently attempting to use this module and prove out that it can work with our CICD process. It is not yet being used in any services, but I'm writing test code to test it out. What is confusing me currently is sometimes everything works fine with non issues, and sometimes (randomly) I get 404 errors returned. When checking the logs in Drupal I see the error:

{ "code" : "apimodel.ApiRevisionNotFound", "message" : "API Revision 2 is not found for Organization internal and API <uuid>.", "contexts" : [ ] }

The steps that I'm performing in the tests, generically are:

1. POST - Apigee management API for creating API model
2. POST - Apigee management API for importing a template
3. POST - Apigee management API for uploading swagger 2.0 JSON
4. POST - Drupal smartdocs_service REST module to render the swagger
5. POST - Drupal cron jobs (publish swagger)

I've checked the tests and the error doesn't seem to be specific to any test in particular. Also the error message sometimes says Revision 1, and sometimes Revision 2.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I should probably also include: The API Models that are being created do not have a corresponding API Proxy in Apigee Edge. These are standalone models and documents.

@dcburke1 sorry about the late response. I have seen the API revision issue before as well. The core SmartDocs module sometimes fails. I do not have a good way to catch that error right now. If you have figured out a pattern please let me know and I can try to address it.

@giteshk no problem! We don't have an ideal solution, but what we did as a stop-gap was to retry the rest call on failures for a maximum of 3 retries. If it fails every time then we assume it's down and return a failed call for our swagger upload utility.

If we do investigate more into this then I'll be sure to update here what we find!
