Is there any way to implement forgot password and send verification mail firebase #12459
Description
Activity
- added this to the milestone
on Oct 10, 2017 Looking at the implementation - the Firebase SDK already has
sendPasswordResetEmail
method.
Wouldn't it be just a matter of exposing this method in Flutter Auth plugin?P.S. happy to do a PR
P.P.S. just wanted to reinforce thatforget passwordfunctionality is sort of essentials in any serious app experience.Reacted by Deric CainI agree. Unless I am missing something, I do not see a way to update the password either, so one of those two should be available.
EDIT: I worked around the ability to not be able to update a password by using Firebase Cloud Functions. There could be a flow to reset a password using a flow outside of Flutter. I do not think this is a long-term solution, but it is a solution for now.
@dericgw Would you consider sharing the FCF's you used for this here?
Thanks!
@Arno-Z Sure thing! Here is the code that I used (tested and working as of today):
const functions = require('firebase-functions'); const admin = require('firebase-admin'); // Credentials needed const serviceAccount = require('./service-account.json'); admin.initializeApp({ credential: admin.credential.cert(serviceAccount) }); exports.updateUserPassword = functions.https.onRequest((request, response) => { const { uid, email, password } = request.body; admin.auth().updateUser(uid, { email, password }).then((updateResponse) => { return response.send({ error: false, message: 'The user has been updated.', result: updateResponse, }); }).catch((error) => { return response.send({ error: true, message: error, result: null, }); }); })
- Thanks Deric
Hi all,
the Flutter Plugin was updated - so you can send reset password link just cal:
sendPasswordResetEmailfromFirebaseAuth.The issue can be closed as done.

SendPasswordResetEmail is implemented but sending account verification email message is still missing.

@tuancaraballo doesn't seem to be a PR waiting yet, so a PR from you would be welcome.
- I have this working with firebase_auth version 0.5.15: ```dart _sendLostPassWordLink() { final form = formKey.currentState; if (form.validate()) { _auth.sendPasswordResetEmail(email: passwordController.text).then((result){ Scaffold.of(context).showSnackBar( const SnackBar(content: const Text('Requesting password reset email')), ); }).catchError((error){ Scaffold.of(context).showSnackBar( // ignore: use_of_void_result const SnackBar(content: const Text('Password reset failed, did you enter the correct address?')), ); }); }} ```Reacted by Muhammad Imanudin and José
Hey, I was struggling with this since yesterday, fortunately I checked out the given methods by the FirebaseUser class instead of the FirebaseAuth class, I found a method for sending verification email.
fireBaseUser.sendEmailVerification();Reacted by Joshua Cold and Somtochukwu NwagbataReacted by Brent Williams and Felix SalazarAre there plans to implement this: https://firebase.google.com/docs/auth/admin/email-action-links? As of now, we only have a generic default method and it provides no room for customization.
It would be nice to port the following which is part of Android SDK
String link = FirebaseAuth.getInstance().generateEmailVerificationLink( email, actionCodeSettings);to Flutter.
Any update on this? Flutter still doesn't seem to expose a way to access actionCodeSettings?
