[SOLVED] Creating a new document with no required attributes fails "The document data is missing"

Hi! So I'm trying to generate a new document through a api call and get the error "The document data is missing" when my collection does not required any of the attributes to generate a new one. My method is

export const createEmptyCarSetup = async () => { try { const newEmptyCarSetup = await databases.createDocument( databaseId, carSetupCollectionId, ID.unique(), {} ) return newEmptyCarSetup } catch (error) { throw new Error(error) } }

Am I missing something or is this not the way the wiki mentions how to create default documents? https://appwrite.io/docs/references/cloud/server-nodejs/databases

TL;DR

Developers were facing an issue where creating a new document with no required attributes was failing with the error message "The document data is missing." The problem was identified in the code. The solution suggested was to create a new issue on the GitHub repository for further investigation and resolution. The workaround proposed was to define every single attribute in the request or pass "undefined" for each attribute. Ultimately, the workaround for this issue was to set all attributes to their default values for an empty document.

An empty document?

Yes

By empty I mean all the attributes will be set to the default value

What if you pass "undefined" for each attribute?

You really shouldn't try and hijack another support post

Yeah so it works if i define every single attribute in the request but that just seems wrong for soemthing that requires no data to be set for any of the attributes

yeah that took me by surprise lol

If you just pass undefined for the data what happens? But I agree, it should work with no data if nothing is required, you can create an issue in the repo.
