Creating Appwrite Session with Phone Number Authentication - Custom OTP Flow
Context: I'm implementing a custom phone number authentication flow using a third-party OTP service. I'm trying to create a session in Appwrite, but encountering an user_invalid_token error.
Current Implementation:
try { final token = await account.createPhoneToken( userId: ID.unique(), phone: phone ); final id = token.userId;
// Generating custom OTP generatedOTP = generateOTP();
// Attempting to create session await account.createSession(userId: id, secret: generatedOTP); } catch (e) { print('Error creating user: $e'); }
Additional Details:

TL;DR
Developers creating a custom phone number authentication flow in Appwrite are encountering an 'user_invalid_token' error when trying to create a session. The error arises due to passing an incorrect token in the request. Double-check the authentication token being used and ensure it is generated and passed correctly for session creation.
