Retrieved market descriptor is missing outcome

Error

Customers are encountering errors when attempting to retrieve names for variant market outcomes.

Applies to

UOF SDK - All versions

Symptoms

When requesting the market outcome name, users receive the exception "Retrieved market descriptor is missing outcome." If the ExceptionHandlingStrategy is set to Catch, the method will return a null result, and this message will only be visible in logs, such as:

2023-04-28 11:24:24,421 [WARN ] [uf-sdk-27325-1] [uf-sdk-27325-1-amqp-t-1] [c.s.u.s.i.m.NameProviderImpl] - An error occurred while generating the name for event=
[StageImpl{id=sr:stage:1052161, locales=[fr, en, es, zht, nl, de, pt]} ], market=[ MarketId=559 Specifiers=[\{variant}=\{pre:markettext:190371}] 
OutcomeId=pre:outcometext:24955559] Locale=[fr]]. Additional message: Retrieved market descriptor is missing outcome.

Resolution

Stale data may be sourced from the API itself or from the cached variant market description within the SDK. To address this, users can delete the cached data to ensure the latest information is retrieved from the API (use: MarketDescriptionManager.deleteVariantMarketDescriptionFromCache()). Additionally, it's recommended to review REST logs to confirm when the variant was last fetched, what was actually returned from the API side, and compare it with the expected market outcomes based on the feed message. This involves comparing the market structure in a feed message (from traffic-logs) with the cached market description in the SDK (from rest-logs) to identify any inconsistencies.
