Zotero-7.1-beta.20+b78bf8e24: parent.getChildCollections is not a function

annabelle.wiegart.zb · 2025-03-13T08:31:56+00:00

I am creating and deleting collections via Web API. While synchronizing, I'm getting the error "parent.getChildCollections is not a function".

Steps performed via API:
1. Creation of a new collection ('2024_04') and two hierarchy levels of subcollections.
2. Import of items into one of the collections of the lowest level.
3. Deletion of empty collections on the two lower levels.

When trying to sync again, I'm getting the following error: "child.getDescendents is not a function".

Can we see a Debug ID (different from a Report ID) for a sync that produces the error?

So far, I haven't been able to reproduce the error. I'll try some more and will post a debug ID if possible.
