Hi Shiwanka,

I'm not quite sure how you're getting the comments. It seems that you're executing in a context without a user, however, if you use the method Comment.GetComments, you shouldn't need a user.

You mention both a module and an API method, so could you elaborate on your setup?

Hi Jeppe

i am trying to read all comments to the product and send it to the mobile app through web api

but I doubt why these Comment.GetComments need user context? according to the error

The issue occurs because the constructor for Comment tries to find the current user. It does this preemptively to have the value available when saving. This is unnecessary and I've created a task to get the logic changed, #4016.

In the meantime, as a workaround, you can create an index that stores the comments by using the SQL Index Builder. Then you can use either the QueryPublisher or the API to fetch the data. This approach also gives you the option to search/query the comments which may come in handy. Alternatively, you can access the database directly to fetch the data -- only use this as a temporary workaround as it's not a recommended solution long-term.

Thanks Jeppe
