Error 500, when running function without body
So i wanted to run a function, tho i don't have any body on this one, and when executing, i got an error 500.
Code:
TypeScript
const client = new AppwriteClient()
.setEndpoint(process.env.APPWRITE_FUNCTION_API_ENDPOINT)
.setProject(process.env.APPWRITE_FUNCTION_PROJECT_ID)
const functions = new Functions(client);
const f = await functions.createExecution("67d8394c0038d8f14c00", null, false);
SDK Error:
TypeScript
AppwriteException: Server Error

response: '{"message":"Server Error","code":500,"type":"general_unknown","version":"1.6.1"}'
}

After a look, i changed the body from null to "" and it worked, tho i think there is some missing checks (convert null body to something, prevent null in the SDK, better SDK error description)
TL;DR
Error 500 occurred when executing a function without a body in the code. Changing the body from `null` to `""` resolved the issue. Developers suggested implementing better checks to handle null bodies in the SDK and improving the error descriptions.
