[SOLVED] Error getting the current logged user
I'm struggling the get the current logged user using the method Account.get().
my code:
TypeScript
export async function getCurrentUser(){
try{
const currentUser = await account.get();
if(!currentUser) return null;
const user = await databases.listDocuments(
appwriteConfig.database,
appwriteConfig.usersDB,
[
Query.equal('accountId', currentUser.$id)
]
);
if(!user) throw Error("Usuario logado nao encontrado.");
return user.documents[0];
}catch(error){
console.log(error)
throw Error("Erro ao carregar o usuario logado.")
}
}
Its always returning the error:
TypeScript
code: 401,
type: 'general_unauthorized_scope',
response: {
message: 'User (role: guests) missing scope (account)',
code: 401,
type: 'general_unauthorized_scope',
version: '0.12.21'
}
How do I solve this?
TL;DR
The user was experiencing an error when trying to get the currently logged user using the appwrite method `Account.get()`. They were getting a 401 error with the message "User (role: guests) missing scope (account)".
The solution to the problem was that the code was being run on the server-side instead of the client-side. The user had to make sure the code is running on the client-side. Additionally, they needed to properly instantiate the appwrite client for the code to work correctly. 
Is this client-side code ? If yes, how have you instantiated the appwrite client ? Can you show please ?
Opps! I was running the code on server-side. Thats was the error. thanks for your help
