Cannot view my storefront in SmartEdit for B2C

[Former Member]

I am trying to configure smart edit for my storefront. I have the following extensions included in my localextensions.xml

 <extension name="cmssmartedit"/>
 <extension name="cmswebservices"/>
 <extension name="previewwebservices"/>
 <extension name="smartedit"/>
 <extension name='smarteditaddon' />
 <extension name="smarteditwebservices"/>

I have also added smarteditaddon as a dependency to my storefront.

Upon login to smart edit I get the below exception:

I am looking for suggestions on how to configure my storefront to be available for smart edit.

The hybris documentation unfortunately is not sufficient at the moment.

Hello Frederic. The stack trace is removed but the message is still spammed in our project.
