you need to createsession, check the auth docs


Hey @Ayush yes you need to create a session and then only you will be able to get the details of the logged in account.

also account.get returns a promise. You will also need to handle that
https://appwrite.io/docs/references/cloud/client-web/account#get%20account

Ayush is using await
inside an async
function

Is there anything wrong about it?

Use :
account.get();

@Ayush the error seems to be because there's not any active session

Are you sure you have logged in previously?

Yess guys I think it's fixed now

Thank you everyone for your help

What was the solution?

As everyone said, I was trying get the current user without creating any session

It was under a useEffect thus it was throwing the error as soon as I reload the page

Basically the problem was with my code and not with appwrite configuration

No, I was pointing out why you donβt need to deal with the Promise

Okay okay got it

Great!

[SOLVED] Error 401 (unauthorized) on using get Account

@Ayush Hello bro dm me i want to ask some questions.

@Ayush I am also getting same problem, I also fetching current user data in useEffect hook, without login also its trying to fetch data. please help me to resolve this issue

Hi Murali! I tried fixing it and talking with the appwrite team but couldn't get any useful, So I used supabase instead for the auth functionality

@Ayush in my case, before logging in, the useEffect hook fetching getCurrentUser, initially there is no session. Don't know how to avoid this

please create a new <#1072905050399191082> post instead of posting in an old thread
