Hi,

I've set up a new Umbraco v8 project and this is working. Now I want to implement the Models Builder API into my VS project so I followed the following documentation to set it up: https://our.umbraco.com/Documentation/Reference/Templating/Modelsbuilder/Install-And-Configure

I created some document types in the backoffice but now when I try to run the Builder.cs class I get an error that it doesn't work.

I installed the Umbraco.ModelsBuilder, Umbraco.ModelsBuilder.Ui and Umbraco.ModelsBuilder.Api nuget packages (all version 8.0.1).

Then I added the following keys to the web.config:

<add key="Umbraco.ModelsBuilder.Enable" value="true" />
<add key="Umbraco.ModelsBuilder.EnableApi" value="true" />
<add key="Umbraco.ModelsBuilder.ModelsMode" value="Nothing" />

As well added the details of my Umbraco administrator account to the Umbraco Models Builder Tool in visual studio itself. Now I get the following error:

UmbracoModelsBuilder: Starting v3.0.6.97 06/03/2019 15:35:18. UmbracoModelsBuilder: UmbracoModelsBuilder failed to generate code: Exception: Response status code does not indicate success (NotFound)

A custom filter or module, such as URLScan, restricts access to the file.

Things you can try:

Create the content on the Web server.
Review the browser URL.
Create a tracing rule to track failed requests for this HTTP status code and see which module is calling SetStatus. For more information about creating a tracing rule for failed requests, click here.

It's not supported yet, we're working on updates for ModelsBuilder.Api to be released for 8.0.1.

Hi Koen, Did you managed to get this to work. I'm running into the same issue. Or are you waiting for the updates of the ModelsBuilder.Api?

Hi Rene, I'm still waiting for the update since they already fixed the issue. As I saw on Twitter, they will release it asap. For now some small issues are delaying the release that was planned for yesterday.

It looks like 8.0.1 just got release, though I can't upgrade to this version since they didn't release an update for UmbracoCms.Web, which is version 8.0.0 and UmbracoCms and UmbracoCms.Core 8.0.1 depend on UmbracoCms.Web 8.0.1. I just contacted support about what to do, I'll keep you posted here.

Thanks Koen, I noticed something broke in our release pipeline, it should start working on NuGet in about 15 minutes.

Hi, I'm having the same issue with the latest Umbraco version 8.1.5. I tried all suggestions but none worked.

Any idea why?

Thanks

Can you describe what doesn't work means?

Have you installed the Api in your Umbraco project? Did you set the correct settings in your web.config?

Do you get a error?

I get HTTP Error 404.0 - Not Found when calling /Umbraco/BackOffice/ModelsBuilder/ModelsBuilderApi/ValidateClientVersion.

I installed the api yesterday on a Umbraco 8.1.1 project and worked ok. But today, I installed it on a project that has Umbraco 8.1.5, but it keeps giving me this error.

Ok, I have created a blank project and installed both Umbraco 8.1.5 & the api, but still have the same issue.

Could someone help please?

Are you using the Models Builder extension - which replaces the Visual Studio Custom tool?

I also had the same error - when using the api - I installed 8.1.5 and I get a 404 when calling /Umbraco/BackOffice/ModelsBuilder/ModelsBuilderApi/ValidateClientVersion

However, while i had installed ModelsBuilder 8.10, I have forgotten to install ModelsBuilderApi as well!! Once that was installed it works

I haven't used it for a while, but one of the checks to do is to make sure you have debug="true" in the web.config
