Discussion about adding experimental spaces in Sanity.json and resolving issues with switching between them.

HI Team,I just added two sanity spaces adding this "__experimental_spaces”  code into sanity.json
{
 "root": true,
 "api": {
  "projectId": "********",
  "dataset": "production"
 },
 "project": {
  "name": "Sample"
 },
 "__experimental_spaces": [
  {
   "name": "production",
   "title": "Prod",
   "default": true,
   "api": {
    "projectId": "********",
    "dataset": "production"
   }
  },
  {
   "name": "staging",
   "title": "Staging",
   "api": {
    "projectId": "********",
    "dataset": "testsanity"
   }
  }
 ],
 "plugins": [
  "@sanity/base",
  "@sanity/default-layout",

Now I can see a dropdown next to my project name, when I’m switching from ‘prod’ to ‘staging’ from above dropdown, url is got change to
http://localhost:3333/staging/desk/docs but drop down value is still prod and I can see data in my production dataset(because I created my ‘testsanity’ dataset just now, so this should be empty). Any reason to behave like this?

It looks like you have an extra

api

setting above your

experimental_spaces

. Do you still get this behavior if you remove it?

when I execute 'sanity deploy' command after removing extra api section from above sanity.json file following error will returnPS D:\*****-docs-cms> sanity deploy
Error: "D:/****/sanity.json" does not contain a project identifier ("api.projectId"), which is required for the Sanity CLI to communicate with the Sanity API

can you copy and paste your

sanity,json

here?

Which version of the Studio are you running?

mmm where can I find it

"dependencies": {    "@sanity/base": "^2.21.0",

}

Ok, revert your

sanity.json

back to the original. That wasn't the issue. If you restart your Studio completely do you still get this behavior?

You may also want to run

sanity upgrade

to get on the latest version.

Thank you very much 🙌, it's got resolved once 'sanity upgrade' and next 'npm install' command. 🎉
