Upload Version in Assets errors?

Im testing my extensions and having problem with the asset upload. Im new and still learning

Zip Upload Errors:
When I try to upload a zip file containing my extension files to the Twitch Developer Console, I receive: “Unexpected error, please try again”

When I successfully upload a zip file, it appears to override even tho im trying to update my externally hosted URLs. This creates a conflict because:
My HTML files reference a backend API host

Can I use external hosting (Hosted Test mode) for the final released extension? Or must I upload a zip to the asset in local mode everytime I make changes for the extension to be approved and released? When i make a new version it works 1 time and then I cant change it again.

Have other developers experienced similar issues with zip uploads conflicting with externally-hosted backend services?

TY :slight_smile:

Check the following

  • the zip is not too big
  • the zip doesn’t contain invalid files like exe or node_modules or similar
  • the zip doesn’t contain invalid file names, like a space in the name, a common culprit is font files
  • the extension version is actually in local test
  • try reloging on the developer console

Not sure what you mean by “override” here.

a final released extension is the same as “hosted” just everyone (or the streamer allow list) can install the extension and every viewer can interact with it
