[SOLVED] Permission error
try to write to the database, but am getting error
Error creating driver [Error: Error: AppwriteException: Permissions must be one of: (any, guests)]
TypeScript
const createDriverDoc = async (user: DriverUser, userId: string) => {
try {
const id = await databases.createDocument(
DATABASE_ID,
DRIVER_COLLECTION_ID,
ID.unique(),
{
userId: userId,
firstName: user.firstName,
lastName: user.lastName,
phone: user.phone,
gender: user.gender,
email: user.email,
avatar: user.avatar,
vehencleType: user.vehencleType,
},
[
Permission.read(Role.any()),
Permission.write(Role.user(userId)),
Permission.update(Role.user(userId)),
Permission.delete(Role.user(userId)),
]
);
return id;
} catch (error: any) {
throw new Error(error);
}
};
TL;DR
The developer solved a permission error by ensuring the user was logged in first. The issue was with setting permissions for a user who is not logged in. They discussed collection permissions and provided code showing how they were initializing the appwrite client and writing to the database. 
If you have write you don't need update and delete. Write is an alias for create/update/delete.
How are you initializing your appwrite client?
What are the permissions on this collection?
TypeScript
import {
Client,
Account,
Databases,
Functions,
Storage,
} from "react-native-appwrite";
export const client = new Client()
.setEndpoint("https://cloud.appwrite.io/v1")
.setProject("***")
.setPlatform("***");
export const databases = new Databases(client);
export const account = new Account(client);
export const functions = new Functions(client);
export const storage = new Storage(client);
What are the permissions on your collection
this is the collection permission
Do you have any relationships?
no, no relationships
Is the userId you're setting permissions for, the user that is actively logged in? The error means that the user is trying to set permissions for something besides themselves
thanks, I had to logged the user in first
