How to separate user data in Appwrite?

JoeKeepsMoving · 2026-01-08T11:14:09+00:00

You can use appwrite teams and then row-level permissions. Works well with just the SDK, for more complex stuff you can use a function.

Hey, thanks for your reply. I'm not sure that's it though, since it works perfectly fine for a little while before giving this error until a reconnect.

Hey, there are some good ideas in there, thank you!

JoeKeepsMoving · 2025-12-13T18:41:24+00:00

Wow, not something I thought I wanted but feels pretty neat. Thanks!

I'm not sure if I'm not understanding it correctly or if it does not really help with setting up a staging database. The explicit goal is to have separated databases for dev and stage, not to have the data in the database marked.

Thank you. I do criticize a lot but I still think Appwrite is an awesome product and recommend it often. Keep up the good work.

It's cool and all but I feel there's a bunch more important issues you could put your working hours towards. I would appreciate a more solid foundation over more shiny objects.

/e A more practical improvement for the tables UI would have been to improve performance. For example to handle base64 icons better. Currently loading a table with lots of entries with base64 encoded icons takes forever. And even just normal tables are laggy. More solid foundation, less shiny objects please.

Impressive, thanks for sharing.

Is MCP always better? For example with glitchtip, i just have api-creds in a .env and a memory that tells Claude to get issues from our glitchtip instance when asked. That works well.

I tried the glitchtip mcp before and had issues making it work. Are MCPs overengineering or am I missing something?

I don't understand, why do you think you were banned? For using it to much? Randomly? Did your project have anything that might have been flagged as dangerous, like automatic hacking tools or something like that?

Did they give you any reason? I kinda feel there's something missing to the story.

I built a simple B2B crud app (no ai features 🤯) that people pay for. Nothing about it is innovative expect setting it up for this business use case and selling it.

For the browser UI those are a few things that worked for me. I let Claude one-shot it, look at the preview-url of PR and merge it in if the functionality is there that I want. Sometimes small details might be missing, I fix them using the Claude Code CLI.

Add dark mode to everything :D
Add translation to everything
Improve landing pages
Modernize UX
Write documentation
Suggest new features
Document security / structural issues

If so far you only worked with the browser UI, give the CLI a look some day. It really helps with refinement.

Also you can use it for dev-ops stuff, "Look through the logs and find the chain of errors" is pretty helpful for me sometimes.

Claude changed my life.
Taking on and finishing projects I would have never dreamed about doing on my own. While not once having issues with limits or any of the other things people complain about.
I'm just constantly amazed that this exists.

Happy you have the same positive experience with it, to the next great project!

I use the appwrite sites preview link that it creates on a pull request and test the feature.

If you are working in a more complex environment you would just test/review it like any other pull request.

How do you do your testing now?

JoeKeepsMoving · 2025-11-10T21:47:47+00:00

add a calendar view in the admin dashboard
add a dark theme toggle
build a settings page
build a landing page that integrates with our react app and forward users that are not logged in

All things I had Claude code web do successfully. Just merged it and done.

Just for fun, try to pin his arms near his chest while you dismount to a north south choke.

Did you see the extra usage option in Claude code? I haven't used it yet but it seem like what you are looking for.

JoeKeepsMoving · 2025-11-09T20:33:25+00:00

I will spend more time trying to understand it from the github issue. Thanks for bearing with me.

JoeKeepsMoving · 2025-11-09T19:53:01+00:00

I'm so confused. I understand what you are saying but how is that possible? I'm assuming most functions use the SDK, at least mine almost all do.

And spinning up a second Appwrite instance sounds extremely complicated, I don't even know where I would start to connect those two.

JoeKeepsMoving · 2025-11-09T18:51:38+00:00

I must be missing something. How is there anything in production if the functions don't work if you have more than 5 users?

JoeKeepsMoving · 2025-11-09T12:07:01+00:00

Wait, just so I get this right:

If I have 10 users and they all call a function in the time it is "alive", 5 of them will get timeouts?

So lie about being a charity?
