Auto Enrolled Email MFA Factor Not Returned by Management API's 'api/v2/users/{uid}/authentication-methods' Endpoint

Multi-factor Authentication

Last Updated:

Overview

When Email MFA is enabled, users who verify their email automatically get that factor added to their user profile in the Auth0 dashboard. If the Management API's authentications method endpoint is called for this user, the 'email' MFA factor is not included. This factor only gets included if 'email' is explicitly added to their MFA factors. 

Applies To

  • Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)

Cause

It is by design that the 'authentication-methods' endpoint does not return auto-enrolled MFA factors such as Email.

Solution

The reported behavior is by design.  To submit product feedback visit the feedback category in the Auth0 Community.
