Error getDocument: request cannot have request body

I don't understand why is the meaning of this error

In my Appwrite function, when i execute it, i get this error in my try/catch request cannot have request body any idea of the root cause ?

    log(`I get this: ${payload.tournamentId}`); // show the expected id

    const tournament = await databases.getDocument(
      process.env.APPWRITE_DATABASE_ID, // < it's setup in the settings sections
      "tournaments",
      payload.tournamentId // < it's exist in my collection "tournaments"
    );
// 🔥 Crash here     "responseBody": "{\"success\":false,\"message\":\"request cannot have request body\"}",

    log(`I didn't get this: ${tournament}`); 

I'm using appwrite cloud

and still very odd that you're seeing this inconsistently

I'm self hosting and not on cloud, so I don't think I can help with this. Sorry!

i have try to create another function with another id / name to be sure i have no cash issue

cache*

i try to debug it by doing lot of strange stuff

with those paths you're on the 12.0.1 SDK or earlier, I wonder if there's an incompatibility with the new network changes for cloud: https://appwrite.io/docs/products/network

here's the call code, you can see where it's not setting a body on a get request but the header is still included: https://github.com/appwrite/sdk-for-node/blob/12.0.1/lib/client.js#L154

I have update all package.json to update version

and yes, i'ts fix the error

interesting! Which version did you bump up to?

I have update all appwrite function to "node-appwrite": "^15.0.1"
but before, it's on "^11.1.0" (maybe a little to old xD)

I can close

Glad you were able to solve this!

look into appwrite version is not the first thing i have think about, specialy because using the Appwrite CLI to push and deploy my function

So i didn't manage the build of the function

I am getting the same error in appwrite python sdk calling either of storage.list_buckets() or storage.get_bucket(bucket_id='<bucket_id>').

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/images/main.py", line 13, in

~~~~^^
File "/images/main.py", line 9, in main
result = storage.list_buckets()

raise AppwriteException(response.text, response.status_code, None, response.text)
appwrite.exception.AppwriteException: request cannot have request body

using appwrite==9.0.3

any fixes?

I think the code is throwing an error in the client.call method on the line data={} which is passed to the requests .get

please make a new support request

Maybe like me, update the version of the appwrite that you use

Thanks for the suggestion but appwrite==9.0.3 is the latest version.

Ok i don’t know about python sorry
So indeed créate a dedicated issue =\

@rc_william please update your SDK, it's been fixed
