400 Bad Request when doing a Parse Unity cloud call to user.logIn in Parse.Cloud.Define - authentication

Question

When trying to define a Parse Cloud Code server side function to handle login I get 400 Bad Request when I try to call it. When I look at the Parse logs it records the error "Failed with: ReferenceError: user is not defined". But the user is definitely defined!
Below is the definition of the cloud code for LogIn:
Parse.Cloud.define("LogIn", function(request, response)
{
user.logIn(request.params.username, request.params.password,
{
success: function(user)
{
response.success(
{
"success": "Log in successful."
});
},
error: function(user, error)
{
// We must respond with a success in order to access the
// result of the request inside Unity.
response.success(
{
"error": "Log in failed.",
"code": error.code,
"message": error.message
});
}
});
});
From Unity I make this call to the LogIn coud code function:
ParseCloud.CallFunctionAsync<Dictionary<string, object>> ("LogIn", userInfo).ContinueWith (t =>
{
etc.....
}
I get the following error logged in the server side Parse logs when I call the above from Unity using user sashas123 and also student123:
E2014-09-26T17:06:18.001Z] v8: Ran cloud function LogIn with: Input:
{"username":"sashas123","password":"test"} Failed with:
ReferenceError: user is not defined
at main.js:43:5
E2014-09-26T17:38:50.474Z] v10: Ran cloud function LogIn with:
Input: {"username":"student123","password":"test"} Failed with:
ReferenceError: user is not defined
at main.js:43:5
The following snapshot from the Data Browser shows that the above users are definitely defined:
![Parse User class][1]
Is there any issue with calling user.LogIn on the server side through Cloud Code or is this a Unity issue?

Answer 1

It looks like user.logIn should be request.user.logIn :)
I find it's best to handle the case where the function may be called without a logged in user too:
if (request.user.logIn != null)
{
...
}
else
{
response.error("This function must be called with a logged in user!");
}
Hope this help!
