I am using @forge/api to get issues from jira. Because of there are more than 5000 issues i should make request in parallel. So that you can imagine i make a 200 request in parallel.
I am asking that after i make request without waiting the response, i should cancel the request.
In javascript fetch there is a way to abort it, using Abortcontroller and signal
But when i use the abort controller in forge/api it gives error
Expected signal to be an instance of AbortSignal
const controller = new AbortController();
const response = await api
.asApp()
.requestJira(
route`/rest/api/3/project/search?expand=description,lead,issueTypes,url,projectKeys,permissions,insight&startAt=${startAt}&maxResults=500`,
{
signal:controller.signal,
headers: {
Accept: "application/json",
},
}
);
Welcome @FratDoan !
Are you using Custom UI or UI Kit in your code? I ask because in Forge, there’s a “bridge” between the runtime and the browser, and an AbortSignal would not be something that can cross that bridge.
As a workaround, try wrapping these calls in a custom Promise, with a setTimeout call to reject that Promise. For example:
new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
setTimeout(() => reject(), 5000);
const response = await api.....
resolve(response);
});

Looks like fetch from ‘@forge/api’ is not compatible with standard AbortSignal class.
This example AbortSignal: timeout() static method - Web APIs | MDN is not working properly with error:
Type 'AbortSignal' is not assignable to type 'import("/Users/pisklenov/projects/host-checker/node_modules/@types/node-fetch/externals").AbortSignal'.
Types of property 'onabort' are incompatible.
Type '((this: AbortSignal, ev: Event) => any) | null' is not assignable to type '((this: AbortSignal, event: any) => any) | null'.
Type '(this: AbortSignal, ev: Event) => any' is not assignable to type '(this: AbortSignal, event: any) => any'.
The 'this' types of each signature are incompatible.
Property 'any' is missing in type 'import("/Users/pisklenov/projects/host-checker/node_modules/@types/node-fetch/externals").AbortSignal' but required in type 'AbortSignal'.ts(2322)
lib.dom.iterable.d.ts(25, 5): 'any' is declared here.
