[error] Prismic authentication state is invalid

Developing with Prismic

Wasn't able to find anything around this error. Hope someone could help me out.

I've got a Next.js 13 instance running in Node v19.7.0.
When I tried npx @slicemachine/init in the directory, I got the following error:

Slice Machine  → Init command started
ℹ We collect telemetry data to improve user experience.

✔ Detected framework Next.js 11-13 and package manager npm
✔ Began core dependencies installation with npm ... (running in background)

  → Prismic authentication state is invalid.

    at async Task.task (/Users/x/.npm/_npx/b6923b01b288b666/node_modules/@slicemachine/init/dist/SliceMachineInitProcess.cjs:221:30)

I've tried Prismic Logout & Login, Reinstalling Prismic-cli, or manually installing slice-machine, it keeps throwing the same error. Has anyone run into the same problem?

Appreciate any help!!

Hi @motmotstudiostudio,

Thanks for your patience.

I reproduced the issue when I deleted the cookies attribute in the ~/.prismic file. I suggest you delete the ~/.prismic file and ran this command npx @slicemachine/init@latest

Let me know if this works for you.

Thanks,
Racheal.

To giva a little more context :
I am trying to start a new project with Prismic, I tried starting from a full website demo prismic.io and starting from scratch Install Prismic with Nuxt 3 - Documentation - Prismic

I had this error when starting from scratch.
When I started from a template I couldn't access my repository having this error :

Hi @mathieu.giard, could you delete your .prismic file in your home directory and try again? That file contains your authentication state, which appears to be corrupted for some reason.

You can delete it with the following command:

npx prismic-cli@latest logout
