Bug Description
We use Strapi in our project, and rely on Meilisearch for indexed search via the strapi-plugin-meilisearch.

We define which collections should be indexed or unindexed through the Strapi admin interface.

Recently, we started encountering the following error, which now prevents any indexing or deindexing operations from working:

Error: Objects are not valid as a React child (found: object with keys {id, defaultMessage}).
If you meant to render a collection of children, use an array instead.
at throwOnInvalidObjectType ...
...

Let me know if more context or a minimal reproduction is needed.

Steps to Reproduce

• Install and configure the strapi-plugin-meilisearch in a Strapi project (e.g. via npm install strapi-plugin-meilisearch).
• Start the Strapi admin panel (e.g. npm run develop or docker-compose up).
• Navigate to the Meilisearch plugin page in the admin panel.
• Try to index or unindex a content type (collection).

• Observe the error in the browser console and/or terminal:
  Error: Objects are not valid as a React child (found: object with keys {id, defaultMessage})

Expected Behavior
We expect the indexing controls in the admin panel to function without React rendering issues.

Thanks for opening an issue!

Which version of the plugin are you using? I think the reproduction could be helpful 🙏

Hey!
I am currently using version 0.13.1

We also encountered this issue (on version 0.13.2) when wrong API key was provided.

It may be just some problem with translations? Guessing from the error message "(found: oblect with keys {id, defaultMessage})." and from fact that no "alert popup" was showed as before with message about wrong API key.

Hey @radoslavzeman!

After some time investigating, I realized that this issue in the Strapi front-end is likely caused by an external error — such as an API issue, outdated plugins, or even database/indexing problems (in my case, I’m using Azure).

I recommend checking the browser console for any errors. If nothing useful shows up there, take a look at the Network tab to inspect the requests.

Your issue seems related to error messages not being handled properly by Strapi's front-end. There might be error details in the request payloads, but Strapi may not display them correctly in the UI, resulting in a generic error popup.

Let me know if that helps!
