OAuth2 using Rest
Heyo!
Does someone have a working way for OAuth2 using REST? I am struggling to get it to work, for example using the discord oauth, I am getting:
TypeScript
Request header field x-appwrite-response-format is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Headers in preflight response.
TL;DR
Developers are having trouble with OAuth2 using Rest in the Appwrite SDK for the web. The `account.createSession` function is outdated and causing issues. The solution is to refer to the SDKs for guidance since the documentation is limited. For OAuth2 using REST, developers are supposed to redirect the user to a specific URL (https://appwrite.io/docs/references/cloud/client-rest/account#createOAuth2Session). There are also CORS issues with Discord OAuth due to a preflight response error.
you're supposed to redirect the user to that URL
This is what the docs say: https://appwrite.io/docs/references/cloud/client-rest/account#createOAuth2Session
So that's exactly what I am doing
There's also nothing else in the docs about this, it's very empty, so I don't know where to send the user to
tip: refer to the SDKs
it doesn't say enough for me though, that's what the docs say and I am doing, also this is also outdated: https://appwrite.io/docs/products/auth/oauth2
account.createSession doesn't seem to exist :/
