ACUL SDK and Simple Captcha Reloading
Developers implementing the ACUL SDK may wish to include a dedicated button to reload the Simple Captcha image (and its associated value) dynamically, without forcing a full-page refresh. This is a common pattern to allow users to request a new image if the current one is illegible.
- Auth0 Universal Login
- Advanced Customization via Universal Login (ACUL) SDK
- Bot Detection: Simple Captcha
The Simple Captcha mechanism is tightly coupled with the initial context generation of the Universal Login flow.
- The Captcha is generated and loaded when the initial
GETrequest is executed on the/u/loginendpoint. - The ACUL SDK retrieves this image during the initial login context.
- There is currently no dedicated server-side method or API endpoint available to request and return a new Captcha image independently of the main authentication transaction.
It is not possible to reload only the Simple Captcha image/value via the ACUL SDK.
To generate a new Captcha challenge, the entire login page must be refreshed. This re-initiates the GET /u/login request, generating a fresh context containing a new Captcha image.
If the use case requires a dynamic Captcha reload without a full page refresh, please share the requirements on our Product Feedback Page.
