Help with Insight Discovery Import Error "instream parameter is null"

[Scott Chapman]

I am working to import a Discovery Tool export into Insight.  I am using the DSC option and importing the zip file that the Discovery tool creates.  When I go to do the import I get the error "Instream parameter is null".  Has anyone run into this issue?  What was the resolution?

quest).

I have tried a couple things, but nothing seems to work:

- There is no password on the zip

- The files to be uploaded are not in a subfolder

- This is the newest version of Jira Cloud Discovery

- Our firewall does not block anything

- My Cloud Token is valid

Can anyone help me with this issue? 

Thanks.

I have just upgraded tp Discovery 3.1.4 with the Export option "Cloud", which should do the discovery and upload/sync right away - not having to run an import !

It comes with the same error: 14-12-2022 11:04:41 : Failed to get FetchUploadCredentials from Cloud

- aftes it has said: Token is valid

It stores the zip file and it looks okay.

Any ideas ?

Hi @Scott Chapman ,

I just had the same error. After uploading my *.zip, I could not continue with the setup of the import.

I then checked the content of my zip. Within the zip, there was a folder, which contained all the necessary files. As soon as I removed the folder and moved the files directly into the zip - without subfolder - I could preceed with the setup.

Here is a bit more info.  This is the log from the Discovery tool.

Per risolvere l'errore ho creato il file .zip dal Discovery tools senza impostare alcuna password.

[nurul akther]

I don't have any password for .zip files but still getting the similar error.

Hi @Scott Chapman Did you manage to resolve this, I'm having the same problem?

[Arefin Imroz]

I am facing the same issue while trying to import the file from the import location I created in Asset Discovery. 

[cbaker]

I resolved it by making sure the export did not have a password on it - even if there was and you remove it, it will still not work.

[Dave James]

I'm having the same issue and there is no password on the ZIP file.
