Error message

${err.message}

What it means

Thrown by EventTypesController_2024_04_15.getPublicEventType when getPublicEvent throws any Error. The catch block wraps every Error as a NotFoundException (HTTP 404), regardless of the actual cause. This means a genuine server error inside getPublicEvent (e.g. a malformed query) is misreported as 'not found', conflating missing data with internal failures.

Solutions

1. Verify the username exists (e.g. via GET /v2/event-types/:username/public) before fetching a specific slug.
2. Confirm the eventSlug matches what is shown on the user's public profile; slugs change when the event type title is renamed.
3. Drop the `org` query param if the user is not in an organization, or supply the correct org slug.
4. If you suspect a server-side bug, retry once; if it persists, report it — the 404 may mask a 500.

Example fix

// before
const evt = await api.get(`/v2/event-types/${username}/${slug}/public`);
// after
const user = await api.get(`/v2/event-types/${username}/public`); // 404 here means bad username
if (!user.data.some(e => e.slug === slug)) throw new Error(`slug ${slug} not public for ${username}`);
const evt = await api.get(`/v2/event-types/${username}/${slug}/public`);

// Verify the user has public event types before fetching a specific slug
const publicList = (await api.get(`/v2/event-types/${username}/public`)).data ?? [];
if (!publicList.some((e) => e.slug === eventSlug)) {
  throw new Error(`slug ${eventSlug} is not public for user ${username}`);
}

function isPublicEventTypeList(v: unknown): v is Array<{ slug: string }> {
  return Array.isArray(v) && v.every((e) => typeof e === 'object' && e !== null && typeof (e as any).slug === 'string');
}

try {
  return await api.get(`/v2/event-types/${username}/${eventSlug}/public`);
} catch (e) {
  if (e.response?.status === 404) {
    // username or slug wrong, OR server misclassified a 500 as 404 — retry once
  } else throw e;
}

When it happens

Trigger: GET /v2/event-types/:username/:eventSlug/public where the username does not exist; the slug does not exist for that user; the org query param references a non-existent org; getPublicEvent's internal logic throws on an edge case (e.g. team event resolution).

Common situations: Public scheduling page for a renamed/deleted user; slug changed after an event-type update; org slug typo in the `org` query param; requesting a hidden event type as an anonymous user; a transient DB read failure misclassified as 404.
