Hi @real titan. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
----------------------
The error message indicates that the
entities field in your Wasp action is expecting an entity declaration type, but it received a string instead.
In Wasp, when you want to specify entities that are used by actions or queries, you should provide them as a list of entity declaration types, not strings.
Unfortunately, the provided knowledge sources do not contain a direct example of how to correctly declare entities in an action. However, they suggest that you might need to import the entity and use it directly, instead of providing its name as a string.
If the problem persists, I recommend checking the official Wasp documentation or seeking help from the Wasp community.
