Hi, how to show user specific data like in a collection we are storing all users data but how to fetch only users specific data, as i have tried this Query.equal("\$id", getuserId.$id), is there is any other way?
One way to do it would be to leverage document-level read permissions so that you're setting each document to be viewed only by the user that creates the document.
https://appwrite.io/docs/permissions#example-1
This should give an idea how
The $id attribute in the collection would be the id of the document, not the user. So that query would not work.
If you want to leverage a query like that, you would to create an additional createdBy attribute and save the creating user's ID there.
That being said, the Permissions system is definitely a more secure way to achieve the same.
its sounds good, let me check the link.
this will be better approach ?Permission.delete(Role.user("getuserId.$id"))
i have one doubt, should we have to specify the role while creating the document because while fetching there is no optional parameter for specifying permission, am i right?
Yeah, permissions is define on create/update, not on fetch
