createPhoneSession executed with current userId throws "Server Error"

I'm using appwrite cloud. In my app I'm logged in with google provider. When I execute createPhoneSession providing current session userId it throws "Server Error"

What's your project id?

Are you trying to create createPhoneSession while the user is logged in?

yes

The function is intended to be used to login the user.

Can you elaborate about your use case?

My use case is that I need to log in user with google and then verify with phone

For that I think you shuold use createPhoneVerification https://appwrite.io/docs/client/account?sdk=web-default#accountCreatePhoneVerification

(after calling update phone to set the phone number)

account.updatePhone(phone, password); what is password?

With this endpoint you can update the user phone number.

So the flow will be

1. updatePhone
2. createPhoneVerification
3. updatePhoneVerification

You can also add the phone number without a password using a Server side SDK https://appwrite.io/docs/server/users?sdk=nodejs-default#usersUpdatePhone

Since the user was created with oauth, they may need to go through the reset password flow to set their password...we plan on changing this in 1.4 such that you wouldn't need to pass a password

Appwrite function and server SDK might be a good approach to update the phone without requiring password

client .setEndpoint('https://cloud.appwrite.io/v1') // Your API Endpoint .setProject('5df5acd0d48c2') // Your project ID .setKey('919c2d18fb5d4...a2ae413da83346ad2') // Your secret API key ;

what is that secret API key ?

To use the Server side SDK You should use Appwrite functions for that https://appwrite.io/docs/functions

Inside Appwrite function you get higher level of access with an API key https://appwrite.io/docs/keys
