I'm developing a CLI application using Node.js
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:
TypeScript
AppwriteException: User (role: guests) missing scope (account)
code: "401"

AppwriteException: User (role: guests) missing scope (account)

TL;DR
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.
