I used to be able to connect to this API workflow. I can connect to the other API workflows. This one is returning a not found error. ![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/bubble/original/2X/3/3fc8b13842649abb9712bedffb87261bae1311fd.png) `{ "statusCode": 404, "body": "{\n \"status\": \"NOT_FOUND\",\n \"message\": \"Workflow not found api_auth_test\"\n}" }` ---

If you want help on API, you really should get the habit of copy pasting the request you’re running. Screenshots are painful to use. ---

The request was irrelevant. It was just `{ "whatever":"whatever" }` All I did was set the API workflow URL and put “content-type application/json” into the headers. The point is that it doesn’t even evaluate the request because it’s responding with the not found error. When I sent that same “whatever” request to this API workflow URL [https://howstr.bubbleapps.io/version-test/api/1.0/wf/link\_node\_action\_test](https://howstr.bubbleapps.io/version-test/api/1.0/wf/link_node_action_test) it says there’s a missing parameter, which there should be, because the only parameter in the request is “whatever.” `{ "statusCode": 400, "body": "{\n \"status\": \"MISSING_DATA\",\n \"message\": \"Missing parameter for workflow link_node_action_test: parameter node\"\n}" }` ---

I don’t see what it’s relevant (and it’ll certainly help you having help faster). Anyway `curl -X POST https://howstr.bubbleapps.io/version-test/api/1.0/wf/link_node_action_test` works here… `{"statusCode":400,"body":"{\n \"status\": \"MISSING_DATA\",\n \"message\": \"Missing parameter for workflow link_node_action_test: parameter node\"\n}"}` So it’s found. ---

This one isn’t [https://howstr.bubbleapps.io/version-test/api/1.0/wf/api\_auth\_test](https://howstr.bubbleapps.io/version-test/api/1.0/wf/api_auth_test) `{ "statusCode": 404, "body": "{\n \"status\": \"NOT_FOUND\",\n \"message\": \"Workflow not found api_auth_test\"\n}" }` ---

Oh, here’s the API workflow editor, in case that helps. > **[Bubble Editor - howstr](https://bubble.io/page?type=api&id=howstr&tab=tabs-2)** > > Build stuff without code and launch a startup without a tech-cofounder! Bubble is a visual programing language. Instead of typing code, use a visual editor to build applications. ---

I already fixed it, this happens sometime when the index that stores workflows names is out of sync for a little bit. I’m pushing a fix so that we avoid this situation. ---

Okay, thanks. I imagine the backend is much more complex than what we see in the editor. ---
