Express agent causing entire app to restart once in a while

Help me!
1

Hi there,

We’ve been using ForestAdmin for a few months now and are quite happy with it, thanks for a great product!

However, we’ve been seeing some unexpected restarts of our app (around once a week) that seem to be caused by the ForestAdmin servers being unreachable.

This is an express backend using createAgent().mountOnExpress(app) to initialize ForestAdmin, we’re using @forestadmin/agent v1.16.2 .

Is there a better way to initialize the agent, to prevent this error from causing the entire app to crash?

Merci d’avance,
Julien

Hello,
Did you try to update your agent to the latest version?
