Unable to Resend the Code More Than Twice - email-identifier-challenge ACUL
Last Updated:
Overview
Users may observe that the Resend button on the email-identifier-challenge screen allows the code to be resent only twice per session. Even when calling the emailIdentifierChallengeManager.resendCode() endpoint, the system does not generate more than two codes. This article clarifies whether it is possible to configure the system to allow additional resend attempts with a specific time interval.
Applies To
-
Universal Login
-
Auth0 Authentication Component Library
-
email-identifier-challenge
Solution
It is not possible to increase the number of times the code can be resent.
-
The limitation is a security feature designed into Universal Login (UL) and is not a limitation of the Auth0 Authentication Component Library (ACUL).
-
The system intentionally allows only one resend after the initial email. This differs from other prompts, such as
passwordless-email-code, which allow multiple resends until a rate limit is reached. -
For more information, refer to Advanced Customizations and the email-identifier-challenge example.
