Generating static pages routes with i18n and Strapi in Next.js [duplicate] - reactjs

Question

I am building a Next.js app with internationalization using next-i18next. Pages are generated for all the pages of my site for both English and French, except for pages with dynamic routes: (i.e., blog/[id]/[blog-title]). For pages with dynamic routes, pages are generated for English, but not for French.
I should note that the blog entries are the same in both languages. So if the user click on a blog entry in the list, they will get the same blog entry.
When a French language user goes to a page with a dynamic route they get a 404. I am new to React and Next so I could be doing something dumb here.
// next-i18next.config.js
module.exports = {
i18n: {
locales: ['en', 'fr'],
defaultLocale: 'en',
localeDetection: true,
},
}
//
// blog\[id]\[title]
//
export async function getStaticPaths() {
const response = await axios.get('https://api.myappi.com/blog')
const posts = response.data
const paths = posts.map((post: Props) => ({
params: { id: post.Id, title: post.Title },
}))
return { paths, fallback: false }
}
export async function getStaticProps(props: IStaticProps) {
const { id, locale } = props.params
const response = await axios.get(`https://api.myappi.com/blog/${id}`)
const post = await response.data
if (!post) {
return {
notFound: true,
}
}
return {
props: {
Id: post.Id,
Title: post.Title,
Blog: post.Blog,
DatePosted: post.DatePosted,
PostedBy: post.PostedBy,
...(await serverSideTranslations(props.locale, ['common', 'blog']))
}
}
}

For dynamic routes, you have to explicitly return the locales you want to be pre-generated from the getStaticPaths function. If you don't, Next.js will only generate pages for the default locale.
From Internationalized Routing documentation:
For pages using getStaticProps with Dynamic Routes, all locale
variants of the page desired to be prerendered need to be returned
from getStaticPaths. Along with the params object returned for
paths, you can also return a locale field specifying which locale
you want to render.
This can be achieved by modifying your getStaticPaths function to generate a path for each slug/locale combination.
export async function getStaticPaths({ locales }) { // Get available locales from `context`
const response = await axios.get('https://api.myappi.com/blog')
const posts = response.data
const paths = posts
.map((post: Props) => locales.map((locale) => ({
params: { id: post.Id, title: post.Title },
locale // Pass locale here
})))
.flat() // Flatten array to avoid nested arrays
return { paths, fallback: false }
}
