I am not allowed to set header for x-appwrite-user-ud in postman
TypeScript
const { clinicRef, patientRef }: CreateConsultationData = req.body;
const databases = new Databases(client);
const teams = new Teams(client);
const functions = new Functions(client);
const { "x-appwrite-user-id": creator }: RequestHeaders = req.headers;
log(JSON.stringify(req.headers));
if (!creator) {
return res.send(
JSON.stringify({
message: "x-appwrite-user-id header is required",
}),
404,
{
"content-type": "application/json",
}
);
}
The result is the second image
TL;DR
Issue: The user is unable to set the header for 'x-appwrite-user-ud' in Postman.
Solution: The user can try using the header 'user-id' as an alternative solution. However, this header may not work for unauthenticated requests. It is recommended to use the Appwrite REST API for proper authentication. Additionally, it is not allowed to use headers containing 'x-appwrite' in the provided Appwrite domain. How to set a header on provided domain of specific appwrite?
I see I am not allowed to use that contains x-appwrite
Of course...it's automatically set by Appwrite
Do you have to use that function domain?
nope just for testing
I know that we have the rest api for function, but this makes me easy to set up hehe
When you execute a function like this, it's an unauthenticated request so Appwrite doesn't pick up the user and it doesn't set the user id and JWT headers
ohh I see I implement this as my alternative solution
TypeScript
const { "x-appwrite-user-id": userId, "user-id": backup }: RequestHeaders =
req.headers;
const databases = new Databases(client);
const authorId = userId || backup;
if (!authorId) {
return res.send(
JSON.stringify({
message: "either x-appwrite-user-id or user-id header is required",
}),
404,
{
"content-type": "application/json",
}
);
}
I added user-id just for testing so I can use it to my postman
