Error: No components found

Error: no components imported

You'll see this error message if no components exist in the file or if they were not published.

To fix this:

  • Check you're importing from the correct file.
  • Check if the components are published.

If you don’t want to import components from this file, go to Data Sources, locate the file, and disable the Components scope. This will remove the file from the components section along with the error.
