How To Display Universal Login "redeem-ticket" Screen

Overview

The "redeem-ticket" screen in the Universal Login experience will be used only in limited circumstances and will rarely be presented to end-users. However, it sometimes needs to be manually tested (e.g., to confirm the styling or localization is placed as expected).

This knowledge article explains how to manually display the "redeem-ticket" screen in the browser.

 

Applies To

  • Universal Login

Cause

The "redeem-ticket" screen is implemented to prevent automated tools, such as security scanners, from consuming tickets or "magic links" before end-users visit the URLs.

In a browser where JavaScript execution is enabled, the form on this page will be automatically submitted by the script, sending the end-users to the next screen. As a result, the end-user will not see this page.

In contrast, automated tools without JavaScript execution capability will be stopped from going further on this page.

Solution

Follow these steps:

  • Publish a ticket
    • Email Verification: Use the "Try" button on the email template configuration page on the Management Dashboard
    • MFA Enrollment: Use the Management API endpoint "POST /v2/guardian/enrollments/ticket"
  • Temporarily disable JavaScript execution for the tenant's domain (see the screenshot below)
  • Visit the URL of the ticket

 

Example (Chrome):
