Prevent other users in a team getting email

But how bots will have access to your team? By signing?

Yes, there will be public teams, so anyone can join. The architecture is like a discord clone

There are some public servers you can join, others are private, requiring an invitation. You can see users profile, but you can't see their emails

So my idea was making all public server like if it was a team, and the user joins the severe by join the team

If I were you, I would:

1. Create a collection for each entity like users, servers, posts, requests etc.
2. Use teams only for access
3. Disable the teams service to prevent end users from using the teams service.

I think the teams service was designed for the use case where someone who owns a resource wants to invite someone to view/update/delete it. Since your use case is kind of the opposite, there's no need to use the invite system

So then for example, If I have a post, should I create a database for users and the associate the post to the user?

And in the case of saved pages, having a separate database that associates both users and saved pages?

Definitely, yes, I think I'm using teams for a thing it's not designed to

So multiple databases? Why exactly?

I mean collections 😅

how so and why?

Discord example: User wants to join a server: Then in the "saved servers" collection, creating a new document with the user ID and the corresponding server

I'm not sure if there's a better approach

so 1 collection per object type, right?

All of the above 😉

1 document per server saved that contains that:

• ServerID/relationship
• UserID

That way when the app is loaded, the users gets all documents containing it's userID, and then it search the servers containing such ID's

I have another problem with that, who is basically that data in the server will be publicly available, so how I could limit it to only allow read access to users that saved the server?

You can create a team, and each server message will be tied to a Team. then set the permissions of the server message only to a Team memebers.

Emails will be revealed to every member

I would like to achieve exactly the same or something similar as teams but without revealing emails to everyone

Ohh, right. You try what Steven suggested here. Work with Teams but disable them in the project settings

I think doing so will block it from the Client sdk but not the logic behind it.

If you look here https://github.com/appwrite/appwrite/blob/master/app/controllers/general.php#L352-L356

It's seems like when a service is disabled then it won't be available only to regular users, that means all the Teams Client SDK requests.

It looks like this would be a great solution for your use-case

Thanks, I will try that! Definitely that should be the best solution

I thought that disabling teams from console meant disabling it for everything, both client and server side

That was my thought too
