Issue with authorization token causing "Session does not match project host" error during GROQ request in Next.js build.

Hej,
I’ve made a dataset private and created a token. I worked once, the second time around i’m getting this for my requests:


    body: {
      message: 'Session does not match project host',
      statusCode: 401,
      error: 'Unauthorized'
    },
What does that mean?

(normal http groq request btw)

• creating a new token does not fix it• setting the dataset to public again does not fix it (as long as you’re still sending a token)

Hi User. How are you sending the GROQ request? Is the authorization token being sent along?

Hi User,It’s during next.js build using 
@sanity/client
.Pretty sure the token is being sent along (works with public and no token).

.env

STUDIO_TOKEN=skLRHxVmhBpirP0…notmyrealtoken…ggdOQdendi
client.js

export const sanityConfig = {
  projectId:
    process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_STUDIO_PROJECT_ID ||
    process.env.SANITY_STUDIO_API_PROJECT_ID,
  dataset:
    process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_STUDIO_DATASET ||
    process.env.SANITY_STUDIO_API_DATASET ||
    'production',
  token: process.env.STUDIO_TOKEN,
  useCdn: process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production',
};

const client = sanityClient(sanityConfig);

export default client;

If you open your query in your browser (e.g., 
<https://abc.api.sanity.io/v1/data/query/production?query=*>
), do you get something back (i.e., all the public paths)?

Hi User - have you verified that your build environment variables are correctly set up? If you host on a platform like Netlify or Vercel, these are not normally pulled from 
.env
files anymore but require additional config.
On Vercel:

Also, just to rule this out, are you sure the token you added belongs to the correct project? Sometimes that exact error message means you've used a different project's token.

Gosh darnit 😄I feel so stupid now. You’re exactly right, i just added the token to the wrong project.
