Dynamic API routes cannot be called in 'getServerSideProps'

[abidk]

It's not possible to calling dynamic api routes in 'getServerSideProps'. A 404 error is returned instead.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create an /api/products/data.js etc.
2. Call endpoint 'http://locahost:3000/api/products/data' in getServerSideProps.
3. 404 returned

Calling the api endpoint in a browser works as expected.

getServerSideProps already runs on the server, maybe you can call that code directly?

Yep @paales is right, there's no reason to introduce additional http overhead because you can import the underlying function directly and execute it.
