I’m trying to make default setup for Vite+React

This is after i have done the getting started section. There no reference on target id or embed widget on docs and im first timer on web3auth

Any help?

I’m getting this same issue, i have installed the latest. and followed this step:

oddly it worked yesterday but now i get the following error:

I thought maybe it was a cache issue so i dropped node_modules and installed everything again, still same issue. so i removed it all and followed the tutorial again.. same issue.

I debugged the issue and found in your code you have this check (note its transpiled)

if (_uiConfig.widgetType === WIDGET_TYPE.EMBED && !_uiConfig.targetId) { log.error("targetId is required for embed widget"); throw WalletInitializationError.invalidParams("targetId is required for embed widget"); }

where the uiConfig object exists, but “targetId” does not. This is odd, because i thought version 10 did not require a targetId given that the UI config is handled on the web3auth dashboard? Anyway, if i manually provide a targetId, it stops erroring. but obviously breaks the layout of my site…

EDIT: so the only way to force it to use modal is to add a uiconfig object and put widgetType: ‘modal’ as the key value pair. so its not quite all managed in the web3auth dashboard.

It’s very strange, is it still throwing the same error?
