document level permission error
This is my nodejs, cloud function:
TypeScript
import { Client, Databases, ID, Permission, Role } from 'node-appwrite';
export default async ({ req, res, log, error }) => {
const client = new Client()
.setEndpoint('https://cloud.appwrite.io/v1')
.setProject(process.env.APPWRITE_PROJECT_ID)
.setKey(process.env.APPWRITE_API_KEY);
const databases = new Databases(client);
// You can log messages to the console
log('Hello, Logs!');
// If something goes wrong, log an error
error('Hello, Errors!');
// Parse the request body to get IDINPUT
const { IDINPUT } = JSON.parse(req.body);
log(IDINPUT);
if (req.method === 'GET') {
// Send a response with the res object helpers
return res.send(`hello ${process.env.DOG_NAME}`);
} else if (req.method === 'POST') {
try {
/// Create a document in the specified collection
const response = await databases.createDocument(
process.env.APPWRITE_DATABASE_ID,
process.env.APPWRITE_USERINFO_ID,
ID.unique(),
{surname: 'dibba'},
[
Permission.write(Role.user(IDINPUT)),
Permission.read(Role.user(IDINPUT)),
]
);
console.log(response);
return res.send('document created');
} catch (err) {
console.log(err);
return res.send('document not created, internal error');
}
}
return res.json({
motto: 'Build like a team of hundreds_',
learn: 'https://appwrite.io/docs',
connect: 'https://appwrite.io/discord',
getInspired: 'https://builtwith.appwrite.io',
});
};
I know I am parsing IDINPUT correctly because in the log I see the correct user id.
I call this function in my flutter app, where I am logged in with an active email session.
I have document level permission active on my collection. I have set that any user can just create.
My apikey has 2 scopes:
- read documents
- write documents
TL;DR
Error message indicates the permissions should be "any" or "guests," not "user" in the function. The solution is to update the function to use `Permission.write(Role.any())` and `Permission.read(Role.any())` instead of `Permission.write(Role.user(IDINPUT))` and `Permission.read(Role.user(IDINPUT))`. This is the full error:
TypeScript
