LOG Error creating driver [AppwriteException: Missing "execute" permission for role "users". Only "["any","guests"]" scopes are allowed and "["users"]" was given.] LOG Error creating driver [Error: AppwriteException: Missing "execute" permission for role "users". Only "["any","guests"]" scopes are allowed and "["users"]" was given.]

TypeScript

try {
    const newuser = await account.create(
      ID.unique(),
      user.email,
      user.password,
      name
    );

    const res = await functions.createExecution(
      CREATE_LABEL_FUNCTION_ID,
      JSON.stringify(`{userId: ${newuser.$id}, label: "driver"}`),
      true,
      "/",
      ExecutionMethod.POST
    );

    return { user: newuser };
  } catch (error: any) {
    console.log("Error creating driver", error);
    throw new Error(error);
  }

Summary

A developer is encountering a permission error when trying to update user labels and names based on user type. The solution involves setting the name during user creation, updating the label accordingly, and utilizing events in function settings. Additionally, an error occurred due to missing execution permission for the "users" role, which was resolved by adjusting the function settings and using the respective permissions.

Hey.

When creating an account, you are not logged in. You need to login first and then use the function

Or, a better way, is to use events in the function settings.

You could use something like users.*.create. Check the functions settings tab.

In your function you can then use
const document = req.body;, where document will contain the data of your user.

Just use log(document) and you can see what it contains. It should contain the user document.

ok, this is good, but the user create function

TypeScript

const newuser = await account.create(
      ID.unique(),
      user.email,
      user.password,
      name
    );

does not have any field where I could add a custom tag(or something), so that I can check for it const document = req.body; and then add my desired label to the user

In your function you need to update the user to add the label, you can get the user id from document.userId.

ok, i think i get how to go about it now

on user creation i will set the name to user type (driver or user)
then update the label based on the name

then whenever the user logs in on my app, i will check there name and if it is still driver or user, i will update it with there real name that i already save on a profile document while creating their account

@faye this is my final solution, though am yet to test it

JavaScript

export default async ({ req, res, log, error }) => {
  try {
    const client = new Client()
      .setEndpoint(process.env.APPWRITE_FUNCTION_API_ENDPOINT)
      .setProject(process.env.APPWRITE_FUNCTION_PROJECT_ID)
      .setKey(req.headers['x-appwrite-key'] ?? '');

    // console.log(req.headers['x-appwrite-key']);

    const users = new Users(client);

    const { name, userId } = JSON.parse(req.body);
    const label = name.split('-')[1];
    const finalName = name.split('-')[0];

    log('req', typeof req.body);
    log('userId', userId);

    await users.updateLabels(userId, [label]);
    await users.updateName(userId, finalName);

    return 'User label updated successfully';
  } catch (err) {
    log('Could not list users: ' + err.message);
    error('Could not list users: ' + err.message);
  }
};

TypeScript

const name = `${user.firstName} ${user.lastName}-driver`;

  try {
    const newuser = await account.create(
      ID.unique(),
      user.email,
      user.password,
      name
    );

    // create driver document
    await createDriverDoc(user, newuser.$id);

    return { user: newuser };
  } catch (error: any) {
    console.log("Error creating driver", error);
    throw new Error(error);
  }
