I'm developing a CLI application using Node.js and the node-appwrite package, but I'm encountering an error
TypeScript
import { Client, Account, ID } from 'node-appwrite';
const client = new Client() .setProject('runner')
const account = new Account(client);
async function createAccount() { const data = await account.create(ID.unique(), 'me@domain.com', '123456789', 'John Doe'); console.log('Account created:', data);}
async function login() { const data = await account.createEmailPasswordSession('me@domain.com', '123456789'); console.log('Session created:', data);}
async function getAccount() { const data = await account.get(); console.log('Account:', data);}
createAccount();login();getAccount();The error occurs when calling getAccount(), and the error message is:
SQL

Developing a Node.js CLI app with `node-appwrite` package. Error when calling `getAccount()`: "AppwriteException: User (role: guests) missing scope (account)". Solution: The error is due to a missing scope 'account' for the user role 'guests'. Add 'account' scope to the user role.
