[SOLVED] Unable to create document with $id?

Hey, trying to create an AppUser document and it's giving me an error saying $id is not allowed for creating new documents, try update instead, do I have to create the document then update it with the wanted $id? I just want the AppUser to have the same ID as the auth user ID

TL;DR

The issue was that the `$id` was included in the `AppUser` object. The solution is to set the document ID as the user ID when creating the document. Here is the corrected code: ```dart Future<AppUser> getUserData(String uid) async { try { final appUserDocument = await db.getDocument( databaseId: AppwriteConstants.databaseId, collectionId: AppwriteConstants.usersCollection, documentId: uid, ); return AppUser.fromMap(appUserDocument.toMap()); } on AppwriteException { final AppUser appUser = AppUser( email:

Set it as the document ID when creating

Can you share the createDocument code

Yeah, I think it's because you have id in your user object. It should be passed in the documentId argument of the createDocument method instead

TypeScript

Future<AppUser> getUserData(String uid) async {
    try {
      final appUserDocument = await db.getDocument(
        databaseId: AppwriteConstants.databaseId,
        collectionId: AppwriteConstants.usersCollection,
        documentId: uid,
      );
      return AppUser.fromMap(appUserDocument.toMap());
    } on AppwriteException {
      final AppUser appUser = AppUser(
        $id: user!.$id,
        email: user!.email,
        name: user?.name,
      );
      final appUserDocument = await db.createDocument(
        databaseId: AppwriteConstants.databaseId,
        collectionId: AppwriteConstants.usersCollection,
        documentId: appUser.$id!,
        data: appUser.toMap(),
      );
      return AppUser.fromMap(appUserDocument.toMap());
    }
  }

sorry should've shared it right away

Change it to this

TypeScript

Future<AppUser> getUserData(String uid) async {
    try {
      final appUserDocument = await db.getDocument(
        databaseId: AppwriteConstants.databaseId,
        collectionId: AppwriteConstants.usersCollection,
        documentId: uid,
      );
      return AppUser.fromMap(appUserDocument.toMap());
    } on AppwriteException {
      final AppUser appUser = AppUser(
        email: user!.email,
        name: user?.name,
      );
      final appUserDocument = await db.createDocument(
        databaseId: AppwriteConstants.databaseId,
        collectionId: AppwriteConstants.usersCollection,
        documentId: user.$id!,
        data: appUser.toMap(),
      );
      return AppUser.fromMap(appUserDocument.toMap());
    }
  }
