I would like to send appwrite function url as url redirect param for creating magic url session.
The error I am getting is "URL host must be one of: localhost, cloud.appwrite.io, appwrite.io
Appwrite function url is like
*.appwrite.global
#Send appwrite function url as url redirect url param for creating magic url session

Are you using Cloud?
severe finch
Yes
keen patio
Are you using a custom domain at all?
severe finch
No.. I have created an appwrite function.. I want to send the function url in the url param of createmagicurlsession
keen patio
It looks like the only way to do what you want would be to use a custom domain name with Appwrite Cloud. You'd be able to set the custom domain as a hostname in your project which should allow you to provide it as a URL for the magic URL session
keen patio
You're not able to as you don't own that domain name
severe finch
Exactly
keen patio
You'd need to set the custom domain to one that you'd own and then get the URL of the function after as it should provide a URL for the function using your custom domain. Other than that, you won't be able to do what you're wanting to due to security reasons
Otherwise, anyone would be able to link to any function on Cloud and that would result in a lot of abuse of the platform

Let me tell you what I'm trying to achieve so maybe you can suggest an alternate solution
I have a react native app.. User puts email in the email field and clicks submit. I create magic url session with this email. Now on clicking the magic url in the email, the secret needs to be stored in a db collection. And now on the client side, I keep querying for the secret in the db every 5 seconds. As soon as the secret is found, update magic url session will be called

Have you looked into potentially using deep links to capture certain URLs and open them in your app?
This is an approach that was used for handling this issue in Flutter but I'm sure a lot of it will also apply for React Native https://www.appwriters.dev/blog/flutter-password-less-authentication-with-appwrite-magic-url

I can do that but I want to allow my users to let their friends also sign in to their account without sharing password

The best I can suggest would be to wait for 1.5 to come to Cloud as there looks to be methods to help achieve what you're looking for. The deep linking would usually be the solution here but wanting to allow account sharing introduces more complexity
With 1.5, you could either implement a email OTP login or if that won't work then a custom token login would sort it
severe finch
Yeah, I think 1.5 would have email OTP option? That would solve my issue
keen patio
Yeah, that's what I was thinking as well. Until 1.5 comes out on Cloud, I'm not sure there are any options that would allow for the account sharing
severe finch
Release date?
keen patio
There's isn't an announced release date yet I'm afraid but they've said it'll be soon
severe finch
Cool.. Until then, I'll look into the custom domain approach
I added a custom domain but it's not showing in the list of custom domains
keen patio
Which list of custom domains are you look at?
severe finch
It's now showing in settings > custom domains
But how can I invoke appwrite function through the custom domain?
severe finch
Even after adding custom domain, createmagicurlsession is not accepting the custom domain in the url param
keen patio
What is the domain you added? And has it been verified?
