The error
[Invalid Module] Backend module "document" does not exist in API definition.indicates that the ABP CLI is trying to generate proxies for a module ("document") that is not present in the API definition exposed by your backend at the specified URL.This issue can occur if:
- The backend microservice you are targeting (with
-url http://localhost:44319and-m artificialintelligence) does not expose the "document" module in its API definition. - The API definition endpoint (
/api/abp/api-definition?includeTypes=true) is returning information about both microservices, but one of them is not running or not properly configured. - There is a mismatch between the running backend services and the modules you are specifying in the CLI command.

Solution Steps
Ensure Both Microservices Are Running
- Start both microservices so that their API definitions are available. The ABP CLI may attempt to resolve all modules referenced in the solution.
Check API Definition
- Open
http://localhost:44319/api/abp/api-definition?includeTypes=truein your browser or use a tool like Postman to verify which modules are exposed. Ensure "artificialintelligence" is present and "document" is not erroneously referenced.
- Open
Check CLI and Schematics Versions
- The warning
@abp/ng.schematics" version is lower than ABP Cli versionsuggests a version mismatch. Update both the ABP CLI and@abp/ng.schematicsto the latest compatible versions:dotnet tool update -g Volo.Abp.Cli npm install @abp/ng.schematics@latest --save-dev
- The warning
Specify the Correct Module
- Double-check the module name you pass with
-m. It must match exactly as exposed in the API definition.
- Double-check the module name you pass with
Clean and Rebuild
- Sometimes, cleaning and rebuilding both backend and frontend projects can resolve stale references.
If Using ABP Studio
- Ensure ABP Studio is updated to the latest version, as recent updates may affect proxy generation.
