Manage Email/Password Users - .NET SDK
On this page
Overview
If you have enabled the email/password provider in your App, you can register a new account, confirm an email address, and reset a user's password in the client code.
Register a New User Account
To register a new user, pass a user-provided email and password to the RegisterUserAsync() method:
await app.EmailPasswordAuth.RegisterUserAsync(userEmail, "sekrit");
Confirm a New User's Email Address
To confirm a newly-created user, pass a confirmation token and
tokenId to the
ConfirmUserAsync()
mehtod.
Mobile applications can handle email confirmation directly in the app by configuring deep linking in Android, universal links in iOS, and/or URI handlers for the Universal Windows Platform (UWP).
await app.EmailPasswordAuth.ConfirmUserAsync("<token>", "<token-id>");
Reset a User's Password
To reset a user's password, first send the user a password reset email:
await app.EmailPasswordAuth.SendResetPasswordEmailAsync(userEmail);
Password reset emails contain two values, token and tokenId.
To complete the password reset flow, you can reset the user's password on the client
or by calling a custom function on the backend.
Reset the Password on the Client
To reset the password on the client, your UI should prompt the user to enter a new
password and the token and tokenId values. You pass these values to the
ResetPasswordAsync()
method:
await app.EmailPasswordAuth.ResetPasswordAsync( myNewPassword, "<token>", "<token-id>");
To access the token and tokenId values sent in the password
reset email, you can use a
custom password reset email containing an
Android deep link or
iOS universal link.
Call a Reset Function
If you have defined a backend function to reset the user's password, you pass the user's email address and new password to the CallResetPasswordFunctionAsync() method. The function will likely require additional parameters, as shown below:
await app.EmailPasswordAuth.CallResetPasswordFunctionAsync( userEmail, myNewPassword, "<security-question-1-answer>", "<security-question-2-answer>");
