🚀 Feature: Password recovery without required URL #6266

nuaiman · 2023-09-16T20:37:02Z

🔖 Feature description

When I click forget password, I then enter my email. And I minimize my app.

Then I get an email with secrect code. Then I go back to my app. Enter the secrect code and new password.

Then I can again use my email and new password to authenticate normally.

🎤 Pitch

Hi, I recently developed my app with phone authentication. Then I switch to email auth.

I tried implementing password recovery it says I need to give required url.

I think, i should not have to deal with url in a mobile app as I can just minimize it and come back with secret key from the email.

I have the same request and a suggestion for an easy solution.

Add the template variable {secret}. Then we can add our own email template without an URL and in the email.
The user can then copy the secret into the app (it's not a beautiful secret, but it's better than nothing)

One way you can achieve this today is:

Create a "Password Recovery Codes" collection with the following attributes:
1. userId
2. code
Create a "Send Password Recovery Code" Appwrite Function that will
1. accept an email address as input
2. create a document in the Password Recovery Codes collection
3. send an email to the user with the code
Create a "Validate Password Recovery Code" Appwrite Function that will
1. accept an email address, code, and new password
2. lookup the code in the "Password Recovery Codes" collection
3. validate the code with the email/userId
4. validate the code is not too old
5. set the user's new password

I have the similar request, but I suggest allowing mobile app developers to use our project URL, which is https://cloud.appwrite.io/[project-id], as an input. With this, we can call the activity and use deeplinks on Android.
