Hi! Could somebody help me? I need to call internal queries/mutations remotely. I use Next.js and SSR. I would like to fetchQuery(internal.tasks.list). But it doesn't work. I want to make queries internal so I don't validate the input parameters (I want to do it elsewhere). Supabase, i.e., provides us with two keys: default and anon. Anon is for public API. Default is for private use.

Are you using fetchQuery from convex/nextjs?

I need to call internal queries/mutations remotely.

The only way to do this currently is using http actions https://docs.convex.dev/functions/http-actions. Then you can call convex functions from external API's

Yeah, it gives the following error

CodingWithJamal•3w ago

Could you show a little code if you dont mind i would like to see how your using this function so i can debug the error better

DelveroffOP•3w ago

Sure

I don't have something more verbose since I'm just playing with Convex import { fetchQuery } from 'convex/nextjs'

So your defining a function test. 1. The internal function is missing the args object.

export const test = internalQuery({
  args: { test: v.string() },
  handler: async (ctx, args) => {
    // your code
  },
});

export const test = internalQuery({
  args: { test: v.string() },
  handler: async (ctx, args) => {
    // your code
  },
});

i would recommend making these public queries and using a shared secret to authenticate search discord for "shared secret" to find examples

CodingWithJamal•3w ago

2. fetchQuery is meant to be used in your nextjs react component not in your convex/ function directory

DelveroffOP•3w ago

Yeah, I know, this is for example simplicity It doesn't matter since the error is about 'internal' and 'public' mismatch on TypeScript level

CodingWithJamal•3w ago

internal functions can only be called by public convex functions, thats why this is not working

DelveroffOP•3w ago

I was thinking exactly about this. Thank you for a "shared secret" hint, will search Discord with it.
