I have defined an attribute that is an array of strings. Now, I would like to know how to add a new string element to the array. What would be the appropriate query or method to accomplish this?

How to update an array attribute?
The example for that it would be something like this, will assume the field phones is an array and you'll like to add one phone.
const newPhone = '131331';
try { // Get the current document const doc = await database.getDocument('[DATABASE_ID]', '[COLLECTION_ID]', '[DOCUMENT_ID]');
// Updating the document. adding the phone at the end of the array attribute await const promise = databases.updateDocument('[DATABASE_ID]', '[COLLECTION_ID]', '[DOCUMENT_ID]',{ phones: [...doc.phones, newPhone] });
} catch (e) { // handle error.}Rank 1: Thread
but everytime a unique documentid goes in the DB so how do we get that ??

i approached it something like this const promise0 = await databases.listDocuments('DATABASEID', 'COLLECTIONID', [
Query.equal('Email', Email)
]);
if (promise0.total === 1) {
let arr = promise0.documents[0].writtenthings;
arr.push(content);
const promise = databases.updateDocument(
'DATABASEID',
'COLLECTIONID',
promise0.documents[0].$id,
{
writtenthings: arr
}
);
}
if (promise0.total === 0) {
const arr = [content];
const promise = databases.createDocument(
'DATABASEID',
'COLLECTIONID',
'unique()',
{
Email: Email,
writtenthings: arr
}
);
}
