My goal is to create a function which give a default team for new user call 'user' Team. And when the user verify his email, another function gave him the role 'verified'

Summary

Solution: To add a default team for new users and assign a "verified" role to users with verified email accounts, you need to create two functions: one for user creation and one for user verification. When creating the functions, make sure to include the necessary variables that can be sent to the function. To access Appwrite, you can do it either server-side or client-side. In this case, you'll be using the server-side, which has more capabilities and no rate-limit on the number of requests. To do this, you need to create an API key with function permissions, specifically the "Auth" permission for accessing

You'll need to create two functions.

On user create
On user verified

If you look here
https://appwrite.io/docs/functions#functionVariables
You can see the list of all the variables that can be sent to your function.

Additionally, you can add custom variables like APPWRITE_FUNCTION_PROJECT_ID for example in your function Settings page.

What is the function api key ?

When accessing Appwrite
You can do it in one of two ways:

Server side
Client side
https://appwrite.io/docs/sdks

In function you'll usaully use the Server side.
The server side has much more capabilities and no rate-limit on number of requests.

But, for that you'll need to create an Api key in the project overview page.

Okay I understand the benefit of using server side against client side. So I have to create an API KEY with Function permissions right ? Like this ?

Binyamin

In your case you'll need the Auth one.
As you want the function to have access to some Auth functions.

Probably a stupid question but there is a way to try locally the function ? I guess I dont have to deploy the function each time right ?

Binyamin

For now, there's no direct way.

What I'm doing is creating a file named local-server and run it each time with mocked variables, etc.

Well something like that should work (for the function who add the default Team for new user) ?

module.exports = async function (req, res) {
  const client = new sdk.Client();
  const teams = new sdk.Teams(client);

  if (
    !req.variables['APPWRITE_FUNCTION_ENDPOINT'] ||
    !req.variables['APPWRITE_FUNCTION_API_KEY']
  ) {
    console.warn("Environment variables are not set. Function cannot use Appwrite SDK.");
  } else {
    client
      .setEndpoint(req.variables['APPWRITE_FUNCTION_ENDPOINT'])
      .setProject(req.variables['APPWRITE_FUNCTION_PROJECT_ID'])
      .setKey(req.variables['APPWRITE_FUNCTION_API_KEY'])
      .setSelfSigned(true);
  }

  const teamId = 'APPWRITE_FUNCTION_TEAM_ID';
  const user = JSON.parse(req.variables["APPWRITE_FUNCTION_EVENT_DATA"]);

  try {
    await teams.createTeamMember(teamId, user.$id, ['MEMBER']);
    res.json({ success: `User ${userId} added to the team successfully` });
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Error adding user to the team:', error);
    res.json({ error: 'Error adding user to the team' });
  }
};

But do I have to add the MEMBER rôle ? Or I can leave blank ?

Binyamin

I think the function name is createMembership instead of createTeamMember, like so:

JavaScript

const r = await teams.createMembership(teamID, email, [], 'url');

Binyamin

You can leave it empty

If I got that :

await teams.createMembership(teamId, user.$id, [], 'url');

How Appwrite gonna know if user.$id its an email or an id ? How can I gave him the two like that :

await teams.createMembership(teamId, user.email, user.$id, [], 'url');

Binyamin

Jun 16, 2023, 16:14

Oh, you're right
You'll need to use the email
But you have it

Binyamin

Jun 16, 2023, 16:14

So just like this

JavaScript

await teams.createMembership(teamId, user.email, [], 'url');

Binyamin

Jun 16, 2023, 16:15
