Issue: Avatar URLs are using server IP address instead of configured domain
Environment:

Appwrite Version: 1.8.0
Setup: Self-hosted on Google Compute Engine with Cloudflare Tunnel
Domain:
Frontend: Firebase Hosting at

Problem:
The avatars.getInitials() endpoint is generating URLs with the server's IP address instead of the configured domain:

Current (wrong): http:///v1/avatars/initials?name=User&project=
Expected: https:///v1/avatars/initials?name=User&project=

This causes:

ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID errors (IP has no SSL cert)
Mixed content warnings (HTTP images on HTTPS page)
Blocked image requests

Configuration:
All environment variables are correctly set in both .env and docker-compose.yml:
bash_APP_DOMAIN=
_APP_DOMAIN_TARGET=
_APP_DOMAIN_FUNCTIONS=
_APP_ENDPOINT=https:///v1
Verified:
bashdocker exec -it appwrite printenv | grep APP_DOMAIN

Shows all domain variables are correct

Steps Taken:

Restarted Appwrite multiple times
Cleared browser cache
Added platform for frontend domain in Appwrite console
Verified Cloudflare Tunnel is working correctly (other API endpoints work fine)

Question: Why is the avatar service still generating URLs with the IP address? Is there a cached value in the database or a specific configuration for the avatar service we're missing?

I been in the issue from yesterday

My appwrite is self hsoted in gcp and I have used cloudfalre tunnel for it.Console is opening from my subdomain adn data are allso being fetch from db.But avatar are not showing

You're passing an IP address into client.setEndpoint()

Get initials doesn't make any api call. It just builds the url and returns it. See https://github.com/appwrite/sdk-for-web/blob/de72141ece55b1eb4e8d14b8bf429c3b8bf690ce/src/services/avatars.ts#L461

No,I am not passing .I am passing subdomain url.import { Client, Account, Databases, Storage, Avatars } from 'appwrite'

export const appwriteConfig = {
projectId: import.meta.env.VITE_APPWRITE_PROJECT_ID,
url: import.meta.env.VITE_APPWRITE_URL,
databaseId: import.meta.env.VITE_APPWRITE_DATABASE_ID,
storageId: import.meta.env.VITE_APPWRITE_STORAGE_ID,
userCollectionId: import.meta.env.VITE_APPWRITE_USERS_COLLECTION_ID,
postCollectionId: import.meta.env.VITE_APPWRITE_POSTS_COLLECTION_ID,
savesCollectionId: import.meta.env.VITE_APPWRITE_SAVES_COLLECTION_ID,
commentsCollectionId: import.meta.env.VITE_APPWRITE_COMMENTS_COLLECTION_ID,
followCollectionId: import.meta.env.VITE_APPWRITE_FOLLOW_COLLECTION_ID
}

export const client = new Client();
client.setProject(appwriteConfig.projectId)
client.setEndpoint(appwriteConfig.url)

export const account = new Account(client);
export const databases = new Databases(client);
export const storage = new Storage(client);
export const avatars = new Avatars(client);

environment variable is set and I have rebuild and deplyed too by clearing cache.Everyone is requesting in subdomainurl but while fetching avatar url,it using http:

Before you call avatars.getInitials() can you log avatars.client.config?

And can you confirm which Appwrite SDK you're using and what version?

I need some time

GET https://<my_vm public_ip>/v1/avatars/initials?name=Testproduser&project=6928397b00217571c01f net::ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID

"appwrite": "^17.0.2" in package.json

Appwrite Version: 1.8.0 in self hosting

Weird...this doesn't make sense...

Also, your SDK version is really old

exactly..I been debugging from yesterday

Would you please share your code here?

Even in this old version, the url is generated using the client.config.endpoint

https://github.com/appwrite/sdk-for-web/blob/16b9d2fa145cb288ecb4ea7367fdbbb11dedd293/src/services/avatars.ts#L239

I have share something to look into in your personal chat too

Maybe the issue is in my backend..I am using cloudflare tunnel for ssl certification and https but since the backend send the url of ip?i dont know

No like I said twice, there is no backend involved

Please share your code

Oh now I know..this was stupid mistake..lol
Actually,I used my ip for storing user record previously and now after setting subdomain,the previous image url are not going to change from db.

I will fix that..thank you
