Issue with Piece Creation in ActivePieces CLI

Need help
1

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to create a new piece using the ActivePieces CLI, but it doesn’t seem to generate the files in the expected directory.

Here’s what I did:

  1. I run the command:
npm run cli pieces create
  1. When prompted, I entered the following values:
  • Piece Name: gelato
  • Package Name: @activepieces/piece-gelato
  • Piece Type: community

However, after running the command, the piece is not being generated at packages/pieces/community/gelato, as I expected.

Has anyone else faced this issue? Could there be a specific reason or configuration missing that might be causing the piece not to be created?

Thanks for your help!

Hello @Nagarajan ,
