When I try to use queries on users, it gives error saying invalid query method.

Now, I dont know whether it is possible or not to query users or it’s just some bad code from my side.

Any help will be appreciated.

Summary

Issue: Developer facing an error with the queries on users in the Node.js SDK for Appwrite, getting an "invalid query method" error. Solution: The `list` method for users in Appwrite's Node.js SDK doesn't directly support queries. Instead, you can use the `createSearch` method to create a complex search query. Here's an updated code snippet: ```js const search = new sdk.Search(client) const queries = [sdk.Search.field('name', 'User Name')]; // Define your custom queries here const result = await search.create('<COLLECTION_ID>', queries, '<SEARCH>'); ``` Replace

JavaScript

const sdk = require('node-appwrite');

const client = new sdk.Client()
    .setEndpoint('https://<REGION>.cloud.appwrite.io/v1') // Your API Endpoint
    .setProject('<YOUR_PROJECT_ID>') // Your project ID
    .setKey('<YOUR_API_KEY>'); // Your secret API key

const users = new sdk.Users(client);

const result = await users.list(
    [], // queries (optional)
    '<SEARCH>' // search (optional)
);
``` If its like this then this should work.....
