08/26/2022, 3:50 PMHow do I trigger the email verification workflow when a new user is created using only the backend SDKs? Currently we have a proxy lambda handling requests but since this handles all request types I don't know when a particular invocation is a sign up or a login or a password reset.

I don't quite understand your setup - so I'm not sure how best to suggest.
