Bulk Operations in Function API KEY

When my appwrite function executes (hosted on appwrite console), the bulk operations don't execute (without error) unless I add a dev key as an API Key in the env vars on appwrite.

const client = new Client() .setEndpoint(process.env.API_ENDPOINT) .setProject(process.env.PROJECT_ID) .setKey(process.env.APPWRITE_FUNCTION_API_KEY || process.env.API_KEY)

when locally testing with docker, i have this API_key env var but I was thinking in functions I shouldnt need it so wanted to check im not doing anything wrong.

I am using node-appwrite 17.2.0

e.g. of this - my main.js will call this function and I will see the first console.log stating it will create n events but I never see an error console log or a success log. It then returns to the main.js and completes the script.

export async function handleCreateBlock(db, block) { const newEvents = createEventsFromBlock(block);

try {
    console.log(`Creating ${newEvents.length} events using bulk operation...`);
    const result = await db.createDocuments(
        process.env.DATABASE_ID, 
        process.env.EVENTS_COLLECTION_ID, 
        newEvents
    );
    console.log(`Bulk creation successful: ${result.documents.length} events created`);
    return result;
   
} catch (error) {
    console.error("Error creating events:", error);
    throw error;
}

}

so to be clear, if i add the API_KEY env var it works. I have also given all database scopes in the function settings

Have you given it the appropriate scopes?
