[SOLVED] User (role: guests) missing scope (account)

[prisma spruce]

While checking the logs for appwrite-worker-mails I see

** docker compose logs -f appwrite-worker-mails 
appwrite-worker-mails  | Appwrite mails worker v1 has started
appwrite-worker-mails  | 
appwrite-worker-mails  | [notice] Starting worker b5e0cc0d5cc8:8:v1-mails       
**

I have updated the required env variables and made sure they being picked up. However my it doesn't seem like any messages are firing off when I use createEmailVerification. Is there anything else I should be looking for?

[long eagle]

are you sure the createEmailVerification api call is executing successfully?

[prisma spruce]

Appears to be, I'm not seeing any errors.

[long eagle]

what's your code and what's the response?

[prisma spruce]

  function sendVerificationEmail() {
    const promise = account.createVerification("/account");
    promise.then(
      response => console.log(response)
    ).catch(err => console.log(err))
    console.log("ALL DONE WITH SENDING");
  }

  function signIn(email, password) {
    const promise = account.createEmailSession(email, password);
    promise.then(
      function (response) {
        setUser(response); // Success, this is the SESSION object tho?
      },
      function (error) {
        console.log(error);
        setUser(null); // Failure
      }
    );
  }

ahhhhh now I have an error hmm

AppwriteException: User (role: guests) missing scope (account)
    at Client.eval

[long eagle]

You're using then in these functions. Because of that. Your signIn function will finish executing and return before the API call actually finishes. perhaps you're calling sendVerificationEmail() before you're actually logged in

[prisma spruce]

Whoops, I sent you signIn

I meant to send you signUp

  function signUp(email, password) {
    const promise = account.create(ID.unique(), email, password);

    promise.then(function (response) {
        console.log(response); // Success
        sendVerificationEmail();
    }, function (error) {
        console.log(error); // Failure
        setUser(null)
    });
  }

creating an accoun't doesn't create a session

[prisma spruce]

right, I don't want it to. I want to create an account, say "Hey go check your email" and not let them do anything until they verify.

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

but your saying you have to have a session to send a verification email

[long eagle]

and btw, i suggest using async, await, try, catch over then whenver possible. all these nested then's can get really confusing down the line

[prisma spruce]

sure I can migrate to that, was just copy pasting from the docs

[long eagle]

yes, correct

[prisma spruce]

hmmm

is there a property to check if the user is verified? I didn't see any on the account object in the docs.

[long eagle]

Ya it's emailVerification

See https://appwrite.io/docs/models/account
