[CLOSED] Is there a way to access the database by name? - Threads - Appwrite

Skip to content

Something like:

TypeScript

databases
      .getDocument('maindb', 'users', '932704e53a242ff3c02l')

TL;DR

There was a question about accessing the database by name. The answer is yes, you can use a custom ID for the database ID to simplify things when using multiple environments. Here is an example of how to do it: ```javascript databases.getDocument('maindb', 'users', '932704e53a242ff3c02l') ```

No...you could have used a custom id for the database id

@leonardorick as Steven mentioned, you can use the custom ID which was designed exactly for this use case

Yeah, but since I'm using multiple environments I wonder if that was possible (or something like that) to simplify things. But ok, thanks!
