Does Appwrite return platform errors instead of authentication errors?
Hello,
I have an issue where Appwrite returns a platform error instead of an authentication error. Is this normal?
Link: https://appwrite.io/docs/advanced/platform/response-codes
Here is my example code:
TypeScript
Future<void> signIn(String email, String password) async {
try {
await _account.createEmailPasswordSession(
email: email, password: password
);
} on AppwriteException catch (e) {
print(e);
rethrow;
}
}
Return
TypeScript
AppwriteException: general_argument_invalid, Invalid `password` param: Password must be between 8 and 256 characters long. (400)`
Thanks.
TL;DR
Appwrite is returning platform errors instead of authentication errors due to an invalid password (too short). Refer to the platform response codes documentation for more details. Consider checking password requirements and adjust accordingly.
