Issue creating a file

[JaviBonilla]

When creating a file with the following code using a JWT

# Token info
token_data = jwt.decode(token, server.SECRET_KEY, algorithms=server.ALGORITHM)
print(f'JWT:  {token}')
print(f'JWT: {token_data}')

# Client
client = Client().set_endpoint(ENDPOINT).set_project(PROJECT).set_jwt(token)

# Making sure token is ok
account = Account(client)
print(account.get())

# Creating a new file
storage = Storage(client)
res = storage.create_file(open('image.png', 'rb'))

The following error is thrown

[Error] Method: POST
[Error] URL: /v1/storage/files
[Error] Type: Appwrite\Database\Exception\Authorization
[Error] Message: Missing "write" permission for role "user:60bf4dfc2c7f4". Only this scopes "["*"]" are given and only this are allowed "["user:60bf4dfc2c7f4"]".

Hey Man 👋
I've been trying to replicate this issue and I've tried to replicate your code as best as I can but it seems to pass for me. Here is the code I've written. Let me know if there are any major differences between my version and yours.

from appwrite.client import Client;
from appwrite.services.account import Account;
from appwrite.services.storage import Storage;
import jwt;

token = 'token'

token_data = jwt.decode(token, "your-secret-key", algorithms="HS256")
print(f'JWT:  {token}')
print(f'JWT: {token_data}')

# Client
client = Client().set_endpoint('http://localhost/v1').set_project('projectID').set_jwt(token)

# Making sure token is ok
account = Account(client)
print(account.get())

# Creating a new file
storage = Storage(client)
res = storage.create_file(open('image.png', 'rb'))

Hi @PineappleIOnic,

Thanks, I don’t see any difference in the code. Are you using Appwrite 0.8 and Python SDK 0.3?

[PineappleIOnic]

I am currently using a indev version of appwrite since I was working on something, but I am using the 0.3.0 SDK. I will try and launch a stock appwrite 0.8 instance now and look for any differences 😄

How are you creating the JWT Token? Are you using the /account/jwt endpoint?

[JaviBonilla]

Yes, I'm creating it from Flutter SDK the createJWT account method. The session is open while executing the Python code. Is it working for you?

[PineappleIOnic]

Hm, I'm not using the flutter SDK to open the session or generate the JWT. I just call it directly through the API using Postman but that shouldn't cause any differences. Can you try creating the session and generating the JWT Manually using something like Postman? I doubt that's the issue though.

This issue has been resolved for this person, however we never got to the core of why this happened. If anyone else runs into a issue similar to this one please do not hesitate to reopen this so we can investigate further.
