Here is my issue:

please check you added attribute : imageUrl into Collection :Posts or not , check Spelling attribute : imageUrl (imageUrl , not ImageUrl )

[hmongdev]

Sorry, I solved the issue a while ago and just saw your message now. You're right.

I capitalized ImageUrl.

It was supposed to be imageUrl.

I did not fix any code, follow video and step by step with setup, I think the problem is not in api.ts

[ChamomileTommy]

There was typo in passing props in The section of Add photos were i gave the name to Add photos instead it should be file . Took me a long to realised but its fixed now

[MohammadHarish52]

maybe you did not set the permissions for storage, i tried and it worked (go to Storage ->Media->Settings->Permissions->any->choose alls->update )

I've already done this.

Here is my issue:

There is a typo It should be "imageUrl"

[abhijitpati11]

Code snippet :

please help with this error, everything seems correct from my side..

[ajayvish0]

Our fileUrl is getting an promise. so we have to only add await in front of getFilePreview(uploadedFile.$id);

[Viraj-Pr]

AppwriteException: Invalid document structure: Attribute "imageUrl" has invalid format. Value must be a valid URL at Client. (http://localhost:5173/node_modules/.vite/deps/appwrite.js?v=1b745d41:850:17) at Generator.next () at fulfilled (http://localhost:5173/node_modules/.vite/deps/appwrite.js?v=1b745d41:488:24)

this error is coming and i can't create post but image is being stored.
