`secrets` is not generated after Appwrite registration

I'm using client side Appwrite for user registration.
This is my current code.

import { ID } from "appwrite";
import { account } from "$lib/appwrite";

const createUserService = () => {
    async function register(email: string) {
        try {
            const sessionToken = await account.createMagicURLToken(ID.unique(), email, "my url", true);
            console.log(sessionToken);
        } catch (error: any) {
            console.log(error);
            throw new Error(error);
        }
    }

    return {
        register
    };
};

const userService = createUserService();

export default userService;

When I call userService.register with my email address. I'm getting this response.

{
  $createdAt: "2024-05-05T21:00:04.767+00:00"
  $id: "6637f354bb4e13d0c723"
  expire: "2024-05-05T22:00:04.767+00:00"
  phrase: "Enthusiastic zebra"
  secret: ""
  userId: "6637f286001edeb788e0"
}

That secret key is empty. Why is this happening?

The secret value will only be returned if the request was made by a client that has an API key set https://appwrite.io/docs/references/cloud/models/session#:~:text=secret,an%20API%20key

Should I manually make a secret from the client?

It is because I cannot achieve a login without secret

Oh my bad, I misread the code, let me take a closer look at it as I referred to the wrong method

It looks like it's still the case though, where the client needs to be created using an API key https://appwrite.io/docs/references/cloud/models/token#:~:text=Token%20secret%20key.%20This%20will%20return%20an%20empty%20string%20unless%20the%20response%20is%20returned%20using%20an%20API%20key%20or%20as%20part%20of%20a%20webhook%20payload.

You'll need to use a client that has been created using an API key from the Appwrite Console

But I cannot create a Client with API_KEY on client side

There is no method called setKey()

Where are you trying to use the secret value?

For login

login method requires 2 parameters - userId, secret

This function generates an link that is sent to the user in an email, the values should be included in the URL that is sent in the email

???

Email is not being sent

I tried 100 times but didn't get any emails

Have you setup emails in the Appwrite Console?

Oh, where do I setup them?

The link I just sent should walk you through setting up an SMTP provider
