Umbraco HTTP client possible missing documentation #7314
Description
What type of issue is it?
Missing documentation
What article/section is this about?
Umbraco HTTP client or Creating a backoffice API
Describe the issue
Documentation says:
You can use it to make requests to any endpoint in the Management API or to any other API.
I tried doing exactly that in my package, in a ts file:
async firstUpdated() {
const response = await tryExecute(this, umbHttpClient.get<ContentType[]>({
url: '/umbraco/management/api/v1/content-insights/get-content-types',
}));This is my controller action that I try to call:
[VersionedApiBackOfficeRoute("content-insights")]
[ApiExplorerSettings(GroupName = "Content Insights API")]
public class ContentInsightsController : ManagementApiControllerBase
{
private readonly IContentTypeService _contentTypeService;
public ContentInsightsController(IContentTypeService contentTypeService) =>
_contentTypeService = contentTypeService;
[HttpGet("get-content-types")]
public IActionResult GetContentTypes()
{
var types = _contentTypeService.GetAll()
.Select(ct => new
{
ct.Alias,
ct.Name
});
return Ok(types);
}
}Everything seems fine; however, when the ts file loads on a page, it logs me out with a session timeout. When I log in, it does the same thing again over and over. This is caused by the request that I make with the HTTP client.

I tried everything, but it logs me out. I think something is missing from the documentation, either in Umbraco HTTP client or in Creating a backoffice API, to make this possible, without the session timeout problem.
