Appwrite functions can't connect to database - timeout issues

I'm trying to create a function that queries my database, but all database operations timeout from within the function, even though CLI access works perfectly.

I'm self-hosted at this time running node-16.0 and the node-appwrite SDK.

What Works:

• The CLI databaase access works fine (appwrite databases list-documents succeeds)
• Function executes and can import node-appwrite
• API key has proper permissions (database.read, documents.read, etc)

What Fails:

• ANY database operation from within function times out (even databases.list())
• Both localhost and 192.168.1.126 endpoints fail
• Timeouts occur within 3-5 seconds.

This works: appwrite databases list-documents --database-id xxx --collection-id yyy This fails: const result = await databases.listDocuments(databaseId, collectionId, []);

I've tested that the function runtime works, SDK imports correctly, and API keys have permissions. The issue is specifically with network connectivity from function to database.

Any thoughts on what I might be doing wrong? Are there any examples of this type of an operation available?

Thanks
