[SOLVED] User (role: guests) missing scope (account)

While checking the logs for appwrite-worker-mails I see

TypeScript

** docker compose logs -f appwrite-worker-mails 
appwrite-worker-mails  | Appwrite mails worker v1 has started
appwrite-worker-mails  | 
appwrite-worker-mails  | [notice] Starting worker b5e0cc0d5cc8:8:v1-mails       
**

I have updated the required env variables and made sure they being picked up. However my it doesn't seem like any messages are firing off when I use createEmailVerification. Is there anything else I should be looking for?

TL;DR

User is missing the 'account' scope. The solution is to make sure the user has the necessary scope assigned. Additionally, the user wants to create an account and send a verification email without creating a session. The solution is to use the 'createVerification' function instead of 'createEmailSession'.

are you sure the createEmailVerification api call is executing successfully?

Appears to be, I'm not seeing any errors.

what's your code and what's the response?

TypeScript

  function sendVerificationEmail() {
    const promise = account.createVerification("/account");
    promise.then(
      response => console.log(response)
    ).catch(err => console.log(err))
    console.log("ALL DONE WITH SENDING");
  }

  function signIn(email, password) {
    const promise = account.createEmailSession(email, password);
    promise.then(
      function (response) {
        setUser(response); // Success, this is the SESSION object tho?
      },
      function (error) {
        console.log(error);
        setUser(null); // Failure
      }
    );
  }

ahhhhh now I have an error hmm

TypeScript

AppwriteException: User (role: guests) missing scope (account)
    at Client.eval

You're using then in these functions. Because of that. Your signIn function will finish executing and return before the API call actually finishes. perhaps you're calling sendVerificationEmail() before you're actually logged in

Whoops, I sent you signIn

I meant to send you signUp

TypeScript

  function signUp(email, password) {
    const promise = account.create(ID.unique(), email, password);

    promise.then(function (response) {
        console.log(response); // Success
        sendVerificationEmail();
    }, function (error) {
        console.log(error); // Failure
        setUser(null)
    });
  }
