Create document with permission
In my web, I try to create a contact form that allow every visitor can leave a message to specified user.
- Anyone can create message => Anyone can create a document in my
Contact MessageCollection - In the form, I create an input or dropdown to select the person that is receiver ( In example is User
5c1f88b42259e)
TypeScript
import { Client, Databases, Permission, Role } from "appwrite";
const client = new Client()
.setEndpoint('<APPWRITE_ENDPONT>')
.setProject('<PROJECT_ID>');
const databases = new Databases(client);
let promise = databases.createDocument(
'<DATABASE_ID>',
'<COLLECTION_ID>',
{'actorName': 'Chris Evans', 'height': 183},
[
Permission.read(Role.user("5c1f88b42259e")), // User 5c1f88b42259e can view this document
Permission.delete(Role.user("5c1f88b42259e")), // User 5c1f88b42259e can delete this document
Permission.delete(Role.team("admin")) // Admins can delete this document
]
);
promise.then(function (response) {
console.log(response);
}, function (error) {
console.log(error);
});
In my Contact Message Collection, I turn on Document security option and set Any can create document.
When submit form, it give Error: User session not found.
Can anyone give some solutions or examples?
TL;DR
Developers are seeking help to create a document with permissions in a contact form on their web. They encountered an "Error: User session not found" when attempting to submit the form. The issue may be due to a missing user session. The provided code snippet demonstrates creating a document with specific permissions using the Appwrite SDK.
If you encounter the "User session not found" error, ensure that the user session is properly initialized before submitting the form. 
I think in the response it will show you who can create permissions for. It's not possible to create permissions for another user.
Thank you for response. For anyone come to this topic later, I do some research and found the explanation video
