403 Error when trying to fetch data from Contentful about gatsby-starter-mate HOT 3 CLOSED

Hello @Patrickcpoole, thanks for raising this issue! So I did a little bit of investigation of what's going on and found out that the problem resides inside gatsby-source-medium. It appears that Medium did some changes in the Authorization methods for their APIs and that's why the whole start process can't continue ... In this issue, people are talking about this problem --> gatsbyjs/gatsby#17335

The solution I propose until somebody fix the plugin is to disable the plugin inside gatsby-config.js, so then you can play inside the starter without the Writing section and when the issue is fixed then re-enable it again. In order to disable you just need to remove this line that it's pushing the plugin into the list of plugins --> https://github.com/EmaSuriano/gatsby-starter-mate/blob/master/gatsby-config.js#L43-L48

Also, you might need to comment the whole component of sections/Writing.js and remove the import line inside pages/index.js. This is because Writing uses StaticQuery which query the graphQL explorer in build time, and if the plugin gatsby-source-medium is not loaded then the application will throw a build time error.

I will follow closely the issue and when they release the feature then apply it to the starter. I really hope that now you can use the starter 😄

Hello @Patrickcpoole again! So I was following this issue quite closely during these days until now no one provides any real solution. Actually I checked the API of medium and the one that is throwing the error is the one that retrieves all the posts from the user.

I just provide a "patch" which fix this problem of the building but you won't be able to retrieve all the posts that you wrote in Medium.

Here is the Pull Request for the starter, it has been merged and deployed. And it worked without the need to remove/comment files inside the starter.

I will still keep an eye on the issue in gatsby to see if they can find a final solution for it and then remove this patch from the starter.

Please let me know if this has solved your problem 😄
