Unable to push functions
Hi!
I just wanted to push a cloud function to my self hosted Appwrite 1.7.4 server. While the init part works (I can see the function in the web console), i'm not able to push function to the server anymore.
I can run the function local just fine.
In the Appwrite logs i can see the following:
TypeScript
appwrite | [Error] Timestamp: 2025-09-22T10:47:20+00:00
appwrite | [Error] Method: PUT
appwrite | [Error] URL: /v1/functions/:functionId
appwrite | [Error] Type: Utopia\Database\Exception
appwrite | [Error] Message: Must define $id attribute
appwrite | [Error] File: /usr/src/code/vendor/utopia-php/database/src/Database/Database.php
appwrite | [Error] Line: 4111
The error i get when i use the CLI to push the function is the following:
TypeScript
AppwriteException [Error]: Server Error

}
appwrite -v: 8.3.0
Can anyone help me getting this to run again? All the functions that are already deployed are working fine...
TL;DR
Developers are unable to push functions to their self-hosted Appwrite 1.7.4 server, encountering a 'Must define $id attribute' error. The CLI returns a 'Server Error' and 'general_unknown' response. The Appwrite version being used is 8.3.0. This issue may be due to a compatibility problem with the Appwrite version. Upgrading or checking for any relevant updates might resolve the problem.
Hey, did you upgrade recently?
