Hey I'd like to check if an account is already registered by letting the user of the app only enter the email. Which endpoint do I need to hit to get this data, or do I have to write my own cloud function for that?
Summary
There are two suggestions provided in the support thread.
1. Use an example implementation from this GitHub repository: https://github.com/appwrite/demos-for-react/blob/12953066814f2116b1d5bd11f3526c2de07dbd04/example-auth/src/appwrite.ts#L40. This example helps check if the user already exists during signup.
2. Use a cloud function from the Appwrite documentation to list users: https://appwrite.io/docs/server/users?sdk=python-default#usersList. You can pass the email as a parameter to check if the account is already registered.
