I have been trying for hours to get the code for approveByEmail to work but for some reason it will not work.
I have set up a place where my clients can create an account then enter their email and password. Which that get passed to the register(email,password) function.
I really need help with how the approve by email works because I am trying to change the clients status from “Pending” to “Approved”. I am trying to follow the verbiage in the Wix Code API section but I can’t understand where I should put things in order for the information to work.
I think I work better with an example of how approvebyemail() works
Here is a broad look at my code without getting so complicated with the rest but this is generally how it is set up:
export function button2_click(event) {
eventPress(event)
}
function eventPress(event, parameter) {
wixData.query("ClientProfileData")
.eq("logInEmail", userEmail)
.find()
.then((results) => {
//console.log(userEmail + '2')
let items = results.items;
let firstItem = items[0];
myBackendFunction(userEmail) // <------ This is where I am trying to approve my client
.then((theresults) => {
});
let totalCount = results.totalCount;
let pageSize = results.pageSize;
let currentPage = results.currentPage;
let totalPages = results.totalPages;
let hasNext = results.hasNext();
let hasPrev = results.hasPrev();
let length = results.length;
let query = results.query;
})
.catch((error) => {
let errorMsg = error.message;
let code = error.code;
console.log(errorMsg)
console.log(code)
$w("#password").collapse()
setTimeout(() => {
//console.log("Timeout")
$w("#text197").text = "Verify your account with your email."
}, 1000)
})
}
import wixUsers from 'wix-users-backend';
export function myBackendFunction(email) { //<-------This is where the confusion is happening
wixUsers.approveByEmail(email)
.then((sessionToken) => {
//wixLocation.to("/mydashboard/" + email)
return { sessionToken, "approved": true }; //<-does this mean that my client status is Approved
})
.catch((error) => {
return { "approved": false, "reason": error };
});
}
Should I have something in the backend code? Like a .js file of what the approve process is?? Or is the function calling a function that wix has pre-placed in the backend?
Please let me know if I am explaining it right or not.
