[SOLVED] Discord Oauth create new account when email change
Is it possible to make Appwrite edit the user email instead of creating a whole new user when the user changed Discord email. Or maybe use user ID as identifier that will work too
TL;DR
The solution to the issue of creating a new account when changing the email address in Discord OAuth is to create an Appwrite function that handles the email address change. By letting the user update their email from a custom page, you can ensure that the new email is edited in Appwrite instead of creating a new user. Alternatively, using the user ID as an identifier can also work.
Eventually any user in Appwrite - no matter what provider - is attached to the email address, is there must be one source of truth. Meaning the even if the user is logged in using Discord, Google or any other provider the only important information for Appwrite is the email.
So in your case you'll need to create some Appwrite function that will handle the email address change, and let the user update is email from a custom page.
alright thanks
