Cannot retrieve class from path credentials

[Deprecated] Rasa X Community Edition

Hello everyone, I have a project which was running. I try to test RASA X, but it raised this error :

Process SpawnProcess-1: Traceback (most recent call last): File “c:\users\cyril\anaconda3\lib\site-packages\rasa\core\run.py”, line 48, in _create_single_channel input_channel_class = utils.class_from_module_path(channel) File “c:\users\cyril\anaconda3\lib\site-packages\rasa\core\utils.py”, line 66, in class_from_module_path raise ImportError(“Cannot retrieve class from path {}.”.format(module_path)) ImportError: Cannot retrieve class from path credentials.

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Unknown input channel. Check your credentials configuration to make sure the mentioned channel is not misspelled. If you are creating your own channel, make sure it is a proper name of a class in a module.

I Don’t understand what it mean, so I come to you for help :slight_smile:

Best, Cyril

Hi there Cyril. Can you post the format of your credentials.yml (you can replace any sensitive info)? seems like you might have credentials: as a channel name in there, which is incorrect.

I got this

rest:

# you don’t need to provide anything here - this channel doesn’t

# require any credentials

rasa: url: “http://localhost:5002/api” facebook: verify: “#########” secret: “#########################” page-access-token: “####################################”

credentials: GOOGLE_KEY: “###################################”

It seems to be google key, but I previously used it to call in actions the Google Maps APIs

How did you access the credentials from the actions before? I don’t think this is the proper way to go about it — credentials.yml is for credentials for your input/output channels. It would be best in your custom actions to use environment variables for your keys and check them in the custom actions. E.g. we have a config here where we pick up environment variables and then can use them in our actions code here.

Okay, I was using for exemple : tutorial-rasa-google-assistant/credentials.yml at master · RasaHQ/tutorial-rasa-google-assistant · GitHub

I’ll do the way you say :blush:

Ah I see. Yes, a tutorial from last septemper is bound to be out of date as we’ve released like 3 new major releases since then. Sorry about that!
