Getting Started

Initialize & Make API Request

Once you have installed the package, it is extremely easy to get started with the SDK; all you need to do is import the package in your code, set your Appwrite credentials, and start making API calls. Below is a simple example:

using Appwrite;
using Appwrite.Services;
using Appwrite.Models;

var client = new Client()
  .SetEndpoint("http://cloud.appwrite.io/v1")  
  .SetProject("5ff3379a01d25")                 // Your project ID
  .SetKey("cd868db89");                         // Your secret API key

var users = new Users(client);

var user = await users.Create(
    userId: ID.Unique(),
    email: "email@example.com",
    phone: "+123456789",
    password: "password",
    name: "Walter O'Brien");

Console.WriteLine(user.ToMap());

Error Handling

The Appwrite .NET SDK raises an AppwriteException object with message, code, and response properties. You can handle any errors by catching AppwriteException and presenting the message to the user or handling it yourself based on the provided error information. Below is an example.

var users = new Users(client);

try
{
    var user = await users.Create(
        userId: ID.Unique(),
        email: "email@example.com",
        phone: "+123456789",
        password: "password",
        name: "Walter O'Brien");
} 
catch (AppwriteException e)
{
    Console.WriteLine(e.Message);
}
