Cause

This error occurs when CONTENT_BASE and ARC_ACCESS_TOKEN have not been configured in .env, located in the bundle root.

Solution

  1. In the bundle root, open .env in a text editor.
  2. Uncomment the lines for CONTENT_BASE and ARC_ACCESS_TOKEN
  3. Configure CONTENT_BASE to the URL for your Arc environment to provide the source for content in your local environment, for example, https://{your-environment}.arcpublishing.com/
  4. Configure ARC_ACCESS_TOKEN with an Access token created from Developer Center in the same environment  configured in CONTENT_BASE
  5. Save the .env and restart fusion.
