03/06/2023, 5:25 PMHello!
I am trying to implement the flow below. A user provides an email or phone number, then it must be validated (OTP), then the user can setup a password.
It seems that if I use passwordless recipe the user gets the auth method "Passwordless" and it cannot be changed, therefore it won't ask for a password.
Is there any way to implement that authentication flow?
Thanks for your help!!

03/06/2023, 7:37 PMOne idea would be to set something up similar to the "invite only" flow described here: https://supertokens.com/docs/thirdpartyemailpassword/common-customizations/disable-sign-up/overview. If you're not using third-party providers, then just the "Changes to email password flow" section would apply.

03/06/2023, 8:56 PMIt shows you how to verify the email first (using a link) and then ask the user for a password. You can use this as a start point for what you want to do

03/07/2023, 6:56 PMHi, thanks for the links below, they've been VERY helpful. I have been able to implement the authorisation workflow. However, when I have started to do the second part (OTP), I have looked at the react code and it seems to be using createAndSendCustomEmail which I believe in Python is create_and_send_custom_email. Do you have any example for python? Unfortunately I am not very clear on how to use it, so any example will be very welcome! Thanks!

03/07/2023, 6:58 PMWe don’t have similar examples for python. Sorry. Instead of using this function, you should checkout the email delivery section in our docs and use the newer functions. The createAndSendCustomEmail function in the example app is deprecated

03/13/2023, 12:57 AMHi, I have another question about email verification... I have found this (https://supertokens.com/docs/thirdparty/common-customizations/email-verification/changing-email-verification-status) page about changing email verification status, but it seems the documentation is not available yet. Do you have any repo/link that can guide me on how to do it?
