@chilly-king-10285 We are using our own custom ui and are in middle of implementation verification ui after registration and login. I wanted to show verification ui on user login if the email is not verified based on the documentation below: https://www.ory.sh/docs/identities/sign-in/actions#show-verification-after-login-if-address-is-not-verified-yet Below is the ory patch command i use as mentioned in the doc
Copy code
ory patch identity-config --project 1025b967-2cee-48ba-a59b-75971a1e90b9 --add '/selfservice/flows/login/after/password/hooks=[{"hook": "verification"}]'
ory patch identity-config --project 1025b967-2cee-48ba-a59b-75971a1e90b9 --add '/selfservice/flows/login/after/password/hooks=[{"hook": "show_verification_ui"}]'
When ever these patch command is executed the settings for (Authentication > Account verification) 
Require verified address for login
 also get’s disabled. However, verification ui after registration does work. If it re-enable 
require verification address for login
user is prompted with a message that their account is not verified but they are not redirected to verification ui. Identity Schema has 
{ verification: { via: "email" }
set. Shouldn’t this work similar to how verification ui works after registration Looks like there is a bug with verification ui after login flow

A message from kapa.ai
Based on the information provided in the knowledge sources, it appears you're encountering an issue with the verification UI after login flow. Let me explain what might be happening. ## The Issue You're trying to implement both: 1. Showing the verification UI after login if the email is not verified 2. Requiring a verified address for login However, these two features seem to be conflicting in your implementation. When you add the verification hooks, the "Require verified address for login" setting gets disabled. ## Understanding the Conflict The issue appears to be related to how these two features work: 1. Require verified address for login - This feature prevents users from logging in at all if their email isn't verified. It uses the 
require_verified_address
hook. 2. Show verification UI after login - This feature allows users to log in but then shows them the verification UI. It uses the 
verification
and 
show_verification_ui
hooks. These two approaches are somewhat contradictory - one prevents login until verification, while the other allows login but then prompts for verification. ## Possible Solutions Based on the knowledge sources, here are some approaches: 1. Choose one approach: Either require verification before login OR allow login and then show verification UI. 2. For SPA clients: The documentation mentions that for SPA clients, the response contains a 
continue_with
field with verification flow information:
Copy code
json {   "continue_with": [     {       "action": "show_verification_ui",       "flow": {         "id": "d859f6af-1dfe-453e-9320-d572e10edeea",         "verifiable_address": "<mailto:email@example.com|email@example.com>"       }     }   ] }
You should check for this field in your API responses and handle it accordingly in your custom UI. 3. Check for OAuth flow issues: There appears to be a known issue with verification flows in OAuth contexts as mentioned in [SPA flows do not continue with OAuth flow after registration](https://github.com/ory/network/issues/352). ## Recommendation Since you mentioned your verification UI works after registration but not after login, I recommend: 1. Check if you're properly handling the 
continue_with
field in your API responses 2. Consider using only the 
verification
hook without the 
require_verified_address
hook if you want to allow login but then show verification 3. If you're using OAuth flows, be aware of potential issues with verification redirects If you continue to experience issues, this might be related to the bug mentioned in [Phone+email schema: verification email is sent when signed up with SMS code](https://github.com/ory/kratos/issues/4161) where a commenter noted that enabling of verification hooks appears to be hardcoded in certain flows. I hope this helps clarify the issue. Let me know if you need further assistance!

@chilly-king-10285 also i tried to email verification ui for oidc login so when do i get continue_with field in the api response if the email is not validated from oidc login

A message from kapa.ai
Based on the knowledge sources, I can provide information about email verification for OIDC logins and when you would get the 
continue_with
field in API responses. ## Email Verification for OIDC Identities There appears to be a known issue with OIDC identities and email verification. According to a GitHub issue: > "When 
Require Verified Address for Login
is activated, OIDC identities can still login, even if they have not verified their email address yet." This happens because "the verified status is not carried over from the oidc provider. So basically every user is unverified when using social sign in in kratos." [Github Issue #246](https://github.com/ory/network/issues/246) ## Getting 
continue_with
Field for Verification For OIDC logins, you need to add the verification hooks specifically for the OIDC method:
Copy code
ory patch identity-config {project_id} \     --add '/selfservice/flows/login/after/oidc/hooks=[{"hook": "verification"}]' \   --add '/selfservice/flows/login/after/oidc/hooks=[{"hook": "show_verification_ui"}]'
The 
continue_with
field containing verification information should appear in the API response after: 1. A successful login via OIDC where the user's email is not verified 2. When the proper hooks are configured for the OIDC method The response would look like this:
Copy code
json {   "continue_with": [     {       "action": "show_verification_ui",       "flow": {         "id": "d859f6af-1dfe-453e-9320-d572e10edeea",         "verifiable_address": "<mailto:email@example.com|email@example.com>",         "url": "/ui/verification?flow=d859f6af-1dfe-453e-9320-d572e10edeea"       }     }   ] }
You can then use this information to redirect the user to the verification UI or fetch the verification flow using the [
getVerificationFlow
](https://www.ory.sh/docs/reference/api#tag/frontend/operation/getVerificationFlow) API method. Note that according to the documentation, "The response from the registration endpoint always contains the 
continue_with
field with the 
verification_ui
action, if verification is enabled and the identity schema defines at least one verifiable address." [Ory Docs: Show verification after login](https://www.ory.sh/docs/identities/sign-in/actions#show-verification-after-login-if-address-is-not-verified-yet) However, there might be console/UI issues with setting these hooks as mentioned in the GitHub issue: "the frontend only sets the hook for the password method. It doesn't for OIDC & Webauthn. So this is just a console issue." [Github Issue #246](https://github.com/ory/network/issues/246)

@chilly-king-10285 below does not work for oidc registration oidc: hooks: - hook: show_verification_ui - hook: session
b
A message from kapa.ai
Based on the knowledge sources, there appears to be an issue with the 
show_verification_ui
hook not working properly for OIDC registration flows. This is related to several documented issues in the Ory GitHub repositories. ## Why Your Configuration Doesn't Work The issue you're experiencing with OIDC registration verification is likely related to a known problem where verification hooks don't work properly in OAuth/OIDC flows. According to [GitHub issue #320](https://github.com/ory/network/issues/320): > "Within an OAuth flow within the AX the user is not shown the verification UI when the 
show_verification_ui
hook is enabled. Instead it redirects back to the OAuth client." This issue specifically mentions that when using OAuth flows, the verification UI doesn't appear after registration even when the 
show_verification_ui
hook is configured. ## Hook Ordering Issues Another potential issue could be related to hook ordering. As mentioned in [GitHub issue #361](https://github.com/ory/network/issues/361), the 
session
hook can override other hooks if it's placed before them: > "The session hook overwrites any other hooks that run after it which is why you don't see a response." Your current configuration has:
Copy code
yaml oidc:   hooks:   - hook: show_verification_ui   - hook: session
While this ordering looks correct (verification before session), there might be other issues at play. ## OAuth Flow Continuation There's also a specific issue with OAuth flows not continuing properly after registration and verification, as documented in [GitHub issue #352](https://github.com/ory/network/issues/352): > "SPA flows do not continue with OAuth flow after registration" This issue notes that after registration and verification, the OAuth flow doesn't continue as expected. ## Recommendations 1. Try using the 
verification
hook instead of or in addition to `show_verification_ui`:
Copy code
yaml    oidc:      hooks:      - hook: verification      - hook: show_verification_ui      - hook: session
2. For SPA and native clients, check for the 
continue_with
field in the API response, which should contain verification flow information regardless of the 
show_verification_ui
hook:
Copy code
json    {      "continue_with": [        {          "action": "show_verification_ui",          "flow": {            "id": "d859f6af-1dfe-453e-9320-d572e10edeea",            "verifiable_address": "<mailto:email@example.com|email@example.com>"          }        }      ]    }
3. If you're using OAuth flows, be aware that there are known issues with verification redirects in this context that might require workarounds or waiting for fixes from the Ory team. If these suggestions don't resolve your issue, it might be a bug that needs to be reported to the Ory team.

@chilly-king-10285 when i try to add hooks and update the identity it returns me the following error Unable to validate config: I[#/selfservice/flows/registration/after/hooks/1/hook] S[#/definitions/b2bSSOHook/properties/hook/const] value must be "b2b_sso"
b
A message from kapa.ai
Based on the error message you're receiving, it appears you're encountering an issue with hook configuration in Ory Identities (Kratos). The error indicates that there's a validation problem with the hook you're trying to add. ## Understanding the Error The error message:
Copy code
Unable to validate config: I[#/selfservice/flows/registration/after/hooks/1/hook] S[#/definitions/b2bSSOHook/properties/hook/const] value must be "b2b_sso"
This suggests that you're trying to add a hook at position 1 in the registration flow's "after" hooks array, but the system is expecting a specific hook type ("b2b_sso") at that position. ## Possible Causes From the knowledge sources, there are several known issues with hook configurations: 1. Hook Ordering Issues: As mentioned in [Troubleshoot Ory Actions Webhook issues](https://www.ory.sh/docs/troubleshooting/troubleshoot-actions), the order of hooks matters, especially with the 
session
hook which can override other hooks. 2. Method-Specific Hooks: According to [Trigger precedence](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/hooks/configure-hooks#trigger-precedence), when an authentication method specifies actions, it overrides the default actions for the flow. 3. Invalid Hook Configuration: Some hooks may have specific requirements or may not be compatible with certain flows or methods. ## Solutions Here are some approaches to resolve this issue: 1. Check Your Hook Configuration: Make sure you're using a valid hook type. The error suggests you need to use "b2b_sso" for that specific position. 2. Use Method-Specific Hooks: Instead of adding hooks to the general "after" section, try adding them to specific methods:
Copy code
yaml    registration:      after:        password:          hooks:            - hook: show_verification_ui            - hook: session        oidc:          hooks:            - hook: show_verification_ui            - hook: session
3. Use the CLI for Complex Configurations: As mentioned in [GitHub issue #361](https://github.com/ory/network/issues/361), sometimes it's better to use the Ory CLI for editing registration hooks instead of the UI:
Copy code
ory patch identity-config --project <project-id> --replace '/selfservice/flows/registration/after/password/hooks=[{"hook": "show_verification_ui"}, {"hook": "session"}]'
4. Check for Additional Properties: Some hooks don't allow additional properties. For example, in [GitHub issue #328](https://github.com/ory/network/issues/328), there was an error: "additionalProperties \"config\" not allowed" for the show_verification_ui hook. If you continue to experience issues, please share your complete hook configuration so I can provide more specific guidance. Remember that the 
session
hook should typically be the last one in the sequence, as it modifies the HTTP response and no other hooks are executed after it. Would you like me to provide more specific guidance on configuring a particular type of hook?

@chilly-king-10285 after the oidc login user is redirected to registration page where i get 400 error without any payload
b
A message from kapa.ai
Based on the knowledge sources, the 400 error you're experiencing after OIDC login when being redirected to the registration page is likely related to a known issue with OIDC flows in Ory Kratos. ## Understanding the Issue This appears to be related to a problem documented in [Github Issue #399](https://github.com/ory/network/issues/399) where there's an issue with MFA and OIDC login methods. While your specific case might not involve MFA, the underlying issue could be similar - a redirect loop or missing form fields after OIDC authentication. Another relevant issue is described in the [Troubleshooting Social Sign-in](https://www.ory.sh/docs/troubleshooting/troubleshooting-social-sign-in) documentation: > "Ory redirects users back to the registration page after a successful OIDC flow when some identity traits, for example a phone number, couldn't be mapped using the data received from the social sign-in provider and require manual input from the user. However, when the Jsonnet configuration for the social sign-in provider is incorrect and Ory can't map the data correctly, the user sees no input fields and the registration page gets stuck in a redirect loop." ## Possible Causes 1. Data Mapping Issues: The most likely cause is that the Jsonnet configuration for your OIDC provider isn't correctly mapping the data to your Identity Schema traits. 2. Missing Required Traits: Your Identity Schema might require fields that weren't provided by the OIDC provider. 3. Redirect Loop: As mentioned in [Github Issue #3987](https://github.com/ory/kratos/discussions/3987), there can be redirect loops after successful OIDC registration when the data mapping is incorrect. 4. HTTP 400 Status Code: Ory Kratos returns 400 status codes for various flow states, not just for malformed requests, which can be confusing as noted in [Github Issue #4052](https://github.com/ory/kratos/issues/4052). ## Solutions 1. Check Your Jsonnet Configuration: Ensure your OIDC provider's Jsonnet configuration correctly maps all required fields in your Identity Schema. 2. Examine the Response Body: Even though you mentioned there's no payload, try to capture the full HTTP response. There might be error details in the response body that aren't visible in your UI. 3. Simplify Your Identity Schema: Temporarily simplify your Identity Schema to require only fields that are definitely provided by your OIDC provider (like email). 4. Check for Redirect URI Issues: Ensure your redirect URIs are correctly configured both in Ory and in your OIDC provider. 5. Review the Documentation: The [Troubleshooting Social Sign-in](https://www.ory.sh/docs/troubleshooting/troubleshooting-social-sign-in) page has a section specifically about "Redirect loops after successful registration" that might help. If you continue to experience issues, I recommend capturing the complete HTTP request and response (including headers and body) to get more detailed information about what's happening. This will help identify whether it's a data mapping issue, a redirect problem, or something else. Would you like more specific guidance on any of these potential solutions?

@chilly-king-10285 all of them is correct for me
b
A message from kapa.ai
I'm glad to hear that the information I provided was helpful for your situation with OIDC login and registration flows in Ory. To summarize the key issues we've identified: 1. OIDC registration flows can encounter problems with data mapping between the provider and your Identity Schema 2. Redirect loops can occur when required traits aren't properly mapped 3. The HTTP 400 error without payload is a known behavior in Ory Kratos 4. Hook configuration requires careful ordering, especially with the 
session
hook 5. The 
show_verification_ui
hook may not work as expected with OIDC flows For the most reliable solution, I recommend: 1. Reviewing your Jsonnet configuration for proper data mapping as described in [Troubleshooting Social Sign-in](https://www.ory.sh/docs/troubleshooting/troubleshooting-social-sign-in) 2. Simplifying your Identity Schema temporarily to isolate the issue 3. Using the Ory CLI for hook configuration rather than the UI 4. Checking for any required traits in your schema that might not be provided by your OIDC provider If you need any further assistance with specific aspects of your Ory implementation, please let me know!

@chilly-king-10285 The 
show_verification_ui
hook may not work as expected with OIDC flows why is that?
b
A message from kapa.ai
Based on the knowledge sources, there are several reasons why the 
show_verification_ui
hook may not work as expected with OIDC flows: 1. OAuth Flow Continuation Issue: According to [GitHub issue #320](https://github.com/ory/network/issues/320), there's a known bug where "Within an OAuth flow within the AX the user is not shown the verification UI when the 
show_verification_ui
hook is enabled. Instead it redirects back to the OAuth client." This is a fundamental issue with how verification flows work in OAuth contexts. 2. Verification Status Not Carried Over: As mentioned in [GitHub issue #246](https://github.com/ory/network/issues/246), "the verified status is not carried over from the oidc provider. So basically every user is unverified when using social sign in in kratos." This means that even if a user's email is verified at the OIDC provider, Kratos doesn't recognize this verification status. 3. Console/UI Configuration Limitations: The same issue notes that "the frontend only sets the hook for the password method. It doesn't for OIDC & Webauthn. So this is just a console issue." This suggests there are UI limitations in configuring these hooks properly for OIDC methods. 4. Code Implementation Issue: In [GitHub issue #320](https://github.com/ory/network/issues/320), a commenter noted: "in ory/kratos we don't continue to the verification flow when there is a login_challenge in the URL as shown here https://github.com/ory/kratos/blob/master/selfservice/flow/registration/hook.go#L249-L258". This indicates there's a specific code implementation that prevents verification flows from continuing when an OAuth login challenge is present. 5. Return URL Handling: The issue also mentions that "We probably need to continue to the verification flow with a 
return_to
parameter of the current login URL." This suggests that the verification flow doesn't properly handle return URLs in OAuth contexts. These issues collectively explain why the 
show_verification_ui
hook doesn't work as expected with OIDC flows. The Ory team appears to be aware of these issues and has been working on fixes, but they represent fundamental challenges in integrating verification flows with OAuth/OIDC authentication patterns. I hope this clarifies why you're experiencing issues with verification UI in OIDC flows!

@chilly-king-10285 can you send me the link of github issue where it says verification ui after OIDC flow does not shows up
b
A message from kapa.ai
Based on the knowledge sources, there are two GitHub issues that specifically discuss the problem with verification UI not showing up after OIDC flows: 1. [Within an OAuth flow the required verification flow does not show](https://github.com/ory/network/issues/320) - This issue directly addresses your concern, stating: "Within an OAuth flow within the AX the user is not shown the verification UI when the 
show_verification_ui
hook is enabled. Instead it redirects back to the OAuth client." 2. [Require verified address doesn't work for OIDC identities](https://github.com/ory/network/issues/246) - This related issue mentions: "the frontend only sets the hook for the password method. It doesn't for OIDC & Webauthn. So this is just a console issue." The first issue (#320) is the most relevant to your question as it specifically describes the problem where verification UI doesn't appear after OIDC flows even when the appropriate hooks are configured.

b
A message from kapa.ai
Based on the knowledge sources, there's a clear distinction between the 
show_verification_ui
and 
verification
hooks in Ory Identities: ## 
verification
hook The 
verification
hook is used to trigger the verification process for unverified addresses. When applied to login flows, it checks if the user has any unverified addresses and initiates the verification process for them. This hook doesn't automatically redirect the user to the verification UI - it just prepares the verification flow. ## 
show_verification_ui
hook The 
show_verification_ui
hook is specifically designed to redirect the user to the verification UI after a successful registration or login. For browser-based flows, it automatically redirects the user to the verification screen. This hook is responsible for the actual redirection to the verification interface. ## Key differences 1. Purpose: - `verification`: Initiates the verification process - `show_verification_ui`: Redirects to the verification UI 2. Behavior: - `verification`: Creates a verification flow but doesn't redirect - `show_verification_ui`: Creates a verification flow AND redirects (in browser flows) 3. Usage context: - The first command in your question adds 
show_verification_ui
to registration flows, which will redirect users to verify their email immediately after registration - The second command adds 
verification
to login flows, which will initiate verification for unverified addresses after login, but won't automatically redirect ## Best practice For browser-based applications, if you want users to be redirected to the verification UI after login when they have unverified addresses, you should use both hooks:
Copy code
ory patch identity-config {project_id} \   --add '/selfservice/flows/login/after/password/hooks=[{"hook": "verification"}, {"hook": "show_verification_ui"}]' \   --add '/selfservice/flows/login/after/oidc/hooks=[{"hook": "verification"}, {"hook": "show_verification_ui"}]' \   --add '/selfservice/flows/login/after/webauthn/hooks=[{"hook": "verification"}, {"hook": "show_verification_ui"}]'
This is mentioned in the documentation [Show verification after login if address is not verified yet](https://www.ory.sh/docs/identities/sign-in/actions#show-verification-after-login-if-address-is-not-verified-yet). Remember that as we discussed earlier, there are known issues with these hooks in OIDC flows that might prevent the verification UI from showing properly.
d
@chilly-king-10285 and what about oidc flows if i want email verification
b
A message from kapa.ai
For email verification in OIDC flows, there are several important considerations based on the knowledge sources: ## Email Verification with OIDC Flows 1. Carrying Over Verification Status Ideally, you can carry over the verified status from the OIDC provider. This is supported in Ory Kratos v1.1.0 and later using the 
verified_addresses
field in your Jsonnet mapping:
Copy code
jsonnet    {      identity: {        traits: {          // Your traits mapping        },        verified_addresses: std.prune([          if 'email' in claims && claims.email_verified then { via: 'email', value: claims.email },        ]),      }    }
This approach automatically marks emails as verified if the OIDC provider confirms they're verified [GitHub Kratos Discussion #3936](https://github.com/ory/kratos/discussions/3936). 2. Known Issues with Verification UI in OIDC Flows As we discussed earlier, there's a documented issue where "Within an OAuth flow within the AX the user is not shown the verification UI when the 
show_verification_ui
hook is enabled. Instead it redirects back to the OAuth client" [GitHub Issue #320](https://github.com/ory/network/issues/320). 3. Configuration for OIDC Verification For OIDC flows, you need both hooks:
Copy code
ory patch identity-config {project_id} \      --add '/selfservice/flows/login/after/oidc/hooks=[{"hook": "verification"}, {"hook": "show_verification_ui"}]'
However, due to the issues mentioned above, this might not work as expected. ## Workarounds for OIDC Email Verification 1. Handle 
continue_with
in API Responses For SPA and native clients, check for the 
continue_with
field in API responses and manually redirect users to the verification UI:
Copy code
json    {      "continue_with": [        {          "action": "show_verification_ui",          "flow": {            "id": "d859f6af-1dfe-453e-9320-d572e10edeea",            "verifiable_address": "<mailto:email@example.com|email@example.com>"          }        }      ]    }
2. Use the Verified Status from OIDC Provider The most reliable approach is to properly configure your Jsonnet mapping to carry over the verified status from the OIDC provider as shown above. 3. Custom Verification Logic If the built-in hooks don't work for your use case, you might need to implement custom verification logic using Ory Actions or webhooks. Remember that there are ongoing issues with verification flows in OIDC contexts, so you might need to implement custom handling in your application until these issues are resolved in Ory.

@chilly-king-10285 how can i manually trigger code verification flow i created a verification flow and submited the follwing data csrf_token method identifier flow but i get and error saying cannot find any strategy to verify your account with
b
A message from kapa.ai
Based on the error message you're receiving ("Cannot find any strategy to verify your account with"), I can help you understand how to properly trigger a code verification flow in Ory Kratos. ## Understanding the Error This error message (code 4010006) indicates that Kratos couldn't find a valid verification strategy based on the data you submitted. According to the [UI message codes documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/concepts/ui-user-interface#could-not-find-a-strategy-to-verify-your-account-with-did-you-fill-out-the-form-correctly-4010006), this happens when the form data is incorrect. ## Correct Way to Trigger Code Verification Flow Based on the API documentation, here's how to properly submit a verification flow with the code method: 1. First, create a verification flow:
Copy code
curl -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \     -H 'Accept: application/json' \     https://$<http://PROJECT_SLUG.projects.oryapis.com/self-service/verification/browser|PROJECT_SLUG.projects.oryapis.com/self-service/verification/browser>
2. Then submit the initial verification request with the email:
Copy code
curl -X POST \     -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \     -H 'Accept: application/json' \     -d '{"method":"code","email":"<mailto:user@example.com|user@example.com>","csrf_token":"your-csrf-token"}' \     "https://$<http://PROJECT_SLUG.projects.oryapis.com/self-service/verification?flow=<your-flow-id|PROJECT_SLUG.projects.oryapis.com/self-service/verification?flow=<your-flow-id>>"
3. After receiving the code via email, submit the verification code:
Copy code
curl -X POST \     -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \     -H 'Accept: application/json' \     -d '{"method":"code","code":"123456","csrf_token":"your-csrf-token"}' \     "https://$<http://PROJECT_SLUG.projects.oryapis.com/self-service/verification?flow=<your-flow-id|PROJECT_SLUG.projects.oryapis.com/self-service/verification?flow=<your-flow-id>>"
## Key Points to Note 1. Required Fields: According to the [API documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/reference/api), the required fields for code verification are: - `method`: Must be "code" - `code`: The verification code (when submitting the code) - `csrf_token`: Required for browser flows 2. Do NOT include both 
email
and 
code
: When submitting the code, make sure to not include the email field. As the API docs state: "If you want to submit a code, use this field, but make sure to not include the email field, as well." 3. Identifier vs Email: The API documentation doesn't mention an 
identifier
field for verification flows. You should use 
email
instead. 4. Flow Parameter: The flow ID should be included as a query parameter, not in the request body. ## Example of Correct Request Body For the initial request:
Copy code
json {   "method": "code",   "email": "<mailto:user@example.com|user@example.com>",   "csrf_token": "your-csrf-token" }
For submitting the code:
Copy code
json {   "method": "code",   "code": "123456",   "csrf_token": "your-csrf-token" }
If you continue to experience issues, check that your identity schema has properly configured the email field for verification with 
"verification": { "via": "email" }
.

@chilly-king-10285 can you provide me sdk code that will trigger verification code using method = code
b
A message from kapa.ai
I'll provide you with SDK code examples for triggering a verification flow using the "code" method in Ory Kratos. ## Creating and Submitting a Verification Flow with Code Method Here are examples in different languages: ### Go SDK
Copy code
go package main  import (  "context"  "fmt"  "os"   "<http://github.com/ory/client-go|github.com/ory/client-go>" )  func main() {  // Initialize the Ory client  cfg := client.NewConfiguration()  cfg.Servers = client.ServerConfigurations{   {URL: fmt.Sprintf("<https://%s.projects.oryapis.com>", os.Getenv("ORY_PROJECT_SLUG"))},  }  ory := client.NewAPIClient(cfg)  ctx := context.Background()   // Step 1: Create a verification flow  flow, _, err := ory.FrontendApi.CreateNativeVerificationFlow(ctx).Execute()  if err != nil {   fmt.Printf("Error creating verification flow: %v\n", err)   return  }    flowID := flow.GetId()  fmt.Printf("Created verification flow with ID: %s\n", flowID)   // Step 2: Submit the email to receive a verification code  emailBody := *client.NewUpdateVerificationFlowWithCodeMethodAsUpdateVerificationFlowBody("code")  emailBody.SetEmail("<mailto:user@example.com|user@example.com>")    updatedFlow, _, err := ory.FrontendApi.UpdateVerificationFlow(ctx).   Flow(flowID).   UpdateVerificationFlowBody(emailBody).   Execute()  if err != nil {   fmt.Printf("Error submitting email for verification: %v\n", err)   return  }    fmt.Println("Verification code sent to email. Check your inbox.")    // Step 3: Submit the verification code (after user receives it)  // Note: This would typically be in a separate request after the user gets the code  codeBody := *client.NewUpdateVerificationFlowWithCodeMethodAsUpdateVerificationFlowBody("code")  codeBody.SetCode("123456") // Replace with the actual code from the email    verifiedFlow, _, err := ory.FrontendApi.UpdateVerificationFlow(ctx).   Flow(flowID).   UpdateVerificationFlowBody(codeBody).   Execute()  if err != nil {   fmt.Printf("Error submitting verification code: %v\n", err)   return  }    fmt.Println("Email verification successful!") }
### TypeScript SDK
Copy code
typescript import { Configuration, FrontendApi, UpdateVerificationFlowWithCodeMethod } from "@ory/client"  async function verifyEmail() {   // Initialize the Ory client   const ory = new FrontendApi(     new Configuration({       basePath: `https://${process.env.ORY_PROJECT_SLUG}.<http://projects.oryapis.com|projects.oryapis.com>`,     }),   )      try {     // Step 1: Create a verification flow     const { data: flow } = await ory.createNativeVerificationFlow()     console.log(`Created verification flow with ID: ${flow.id}`)          // Step 2: Submit the email to receive a verification code     const { data: updatedFlow } = await ory.updateVerificationFlow({       flow: flow.id,       updateVerificationFlowBody: {         method: "code",         email: "<mailto:user@example.com|user@example.com>"       } as UpdateVerificationFlowWithCodeMethod     })          console.log("Verification code sent to email. Check your inbox.")          // Step 3: Submit the verification code (after user receives it)     // Note: This would typically be in a separate request after the user gets the code     const { data: verifiedFlow } = await ory.updateVerificationFlow({       flow: flow.id,       updateVerificationFlowBody: {         method: "code",         code: "123456" // Replace with the actual code from the email       } as UpdateVerificationFlowWithCodeMethod     })          console.log("Email verification successful!")   } catch (error) {     console.error("Error during verification process:", error)   } }  verifyEmail()
These examples follow the verification flow process as documented in [Ory's Bring-your-own-UI Integration Basics](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/bring-your-own-ui/custom-ui-basic-integration#verification-flow): 1. Create a verification flow 2. Submit the email to receive a verification code 3. Submit the verification code after the user receives it Note that in a real application, steps 2 and 3 would typically be separate operations, with step 3 occurring after the user receives and enters the code. Is there a specific programming language or framework you'd like me to provide an example for?

@chilly-king-10285 is there a way in ory where i can add a webhook that redirects users to verification page before issuing session
b
A message from kapa.ai
Based on the knowledge sources, yes, you can use Ory Actions with webhooks to redirect users to a verification page before issuing a session. This can be accomplished through flow-interrupting webhooks. ## Using Flow-Interrupting Webhooks Ory Actions supports webhooks that can interrupt and modify authentication flows. You can create a webhook that checks if a user's email is verified and redirects them to the verification page if needed. Here's how you can implement this: 1. Create a webhook in Ory Console: Navigate to Authentication → Actions & Webhooks in the [Ory Console](https://console.ory.sh/projects/current/developers/actions) and click on + Create new Action. 2. Configure the webhook: - Choose the login flow type - Set it to execute before the session is created - Provide your webhook URL and method (typically POST) - Configure the webhook to be flow-interrupting 3. Implement the webhook logic: Your webhook should check if the user's email is verified and return a response that redirects to the verification page if needed. ## Configuration Example The webhook configuration would look something like this:
Copy code
hook: web_hook config:   url: <https://your-service.example.com/check-verification>   method: POST   response:     ignore: false     parse: true   auth:     type: api_key     config:       # Your auth configuration
Your webhook endpoint would need to return a response that either: 1. Allows the flow to continue if the email is verified 2. Redirects to the verification page if the email is not verified ## Alternative Approach If you prefer not to use external webhooks, you can also use Ory's built-in hooks: 1. Add the 
verification
hook to check if verification is needed 2. Add the 
show_verification_ui
hook to redirect to the verification UI
Copy code
ory patch identity-config {project_id} \   --add '/selfservice/flows/login/after/password/hooks=[{"hook": "verification"}, {"hook": "show_verification_ui"}]'
However, as we discussed earlier, there are known issues with these hooks in OIDC flows. [Ory Actions with webhooks](https://www.ory.sh/docs/guides/integrate-with-ory-cloud-through-webhooks) provide the most flexible approach for implementing custom verification logic before issuing a session.

@chilly-king-10285 the issue is after registration user is prompted with verification flow and if they navigate back they can basically skip the verification
b
A message from kapa.ai
You've identified an important issue with the verification flow in Ory. This is indeed a known limitation in the default Ory Account Experience UI. ## The Issue with Verification Flow Navigation The problem you're describing is that after registration, when users are prompted with the verification flow, they can simply use the browser's back button or navigation controls to bypass the verification process entirely. This creates a security gap where users can register but skip email verification. This issue is related to what's mentioned in [GitHub issue #268](https://github.com/ory/network/issues/268), which discusses the need for proper "Back" button functionality in the Account Experience. The issue notes that while having a back button would improve UX, it could also allow users to skip verification flows. ## Why This Happens The verification flow in Ory is designed as a separate flow from registration. When a user completes registration: 1. The 
show_verification_ui
hook redirects them to the verification UI 2. This is a browser redirect, not a forced state change 3. The user can navigate away from this page using browser controls ## Possible Solutions 1. Use the 
session
hook with verification requirements: Configure your system to require verified emails for subsequent logins. This way, even if users skip verification initially, they'll be forced to verify before their next login. 2. Implement a custom UI: As mentioned in the GitHub issue, a custom UI would give you more control over the verification flow and could prevent users from bypassing it. 3. Use flow-interrupting webhooks: You could implement a webhook that checks verification status and prevents access to protected resources until verification is complete. 4. Require verified address for login: Enable the "Require Verified Address for Login" setting in the Ory Console under Authentication → Email verification. This ensures users must verify their email before they can log in again. ## Best Practice Recommendation The most robust approach is a combination of: 1. Enabling "Require Verified Address for Login" 2. Adding the 
session
hook after registration to allow one-time access 3. Using webhooks to limit functionality for unverified users This way, users can access your application immediately after registration (improving UX), but they'll need to verify their email to maintain access and use all features. Would you like more specific guidance on implementing any of these solutions?

@chilly-king-10285 how can i prevent ory to now allow multiple login methods
b
A message from kapa.ai
Based on the knowledge sources, I can explain how to prevent multiple login methods in Ory. ## Preventing Multiple Login Methods Ory Identities (Kratos) allows users to link multiple authentication methods to their accounts by default. If you want to prevent this and restrict users to a single login method, you have a few options: ### 1. Disable Account Linking The most direct approach is to disable the account linking feature. This prevents users from adding additional authentication methods to their existing accounts. Unfortunately, the knowledge sources don't provide specific configuration details for completely disabling account linking. ### 2. Use MFA Enforcement You can configure Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) enforcement to control how authentication methods are used:
Copy code
yaml selfservice:   flows:     settings:       required_aal: highest_available session:   whoami:     required_aal: aal1
This configuration forces users to use their highest available authentication factor but doesn't prevent linking multiple methods. ### 3. Use Flow-Interrupting Webhooks You can implement a custom webhook that prevents users from linking additional authentication methods: 1. Create a flow-interrupting webhook for the settings flow 2. In your webhook logic, check if the user is attempting to add a new authentication method 3. If they already have one method, return an error response ### 4. Modify the UI If you're using a custom UI, you can simply not display the options for linking additional authentication methods in your settings page. ## Important Considerations 1. Security Implications: Restricting users to a single authentication method can create account recovery challenges if that method becomes unavailable. 2. Account Recovery: If you disable multiple login methods, ensure you have a robust account recovery process in place. 3. User Experience: Consider how this restriction might impact user experience, especially for users who prefer different authentication methods in different contexts. Would you like more specific guidance on implementing any of these approaches?

@chilly-king-10285 i dont find any translations for the messgae below { "id": 1010016, "text": "You tried to sign in with \"routeasis@gmail.com\", but that email is already used by another account. Sign in to your account with one of the options below to add your account \"routeasis@gmail.com\" at \"Google\" as another way to sign in.", "type": "info", "context": { "available_credential_types": [ "password" ], "available_providers": [], "duplicateIdentifier": "routeasis@gmail.com", "duplicate_identifier": "routeasis@gmail.com", "newLoginUrl": "https://accounts-development.plantura.garden/login", "new_login_url": "https://accounts-development.plantura.garden/login", "provider": "Google" } } can you provide me directions
b
A message from kapa.ai
Based on the knowledge sources, I can provide information about translations for this specific message in Ory. ## Missing Translation for Message ID 1010016 The message ID 1010016 is related to account linking when a user tries to sign in with an email that's already associated with another account. According to [GitHub issue #391](https://github.com/ory/network/issues/391), there is indeed a known issue with missing translations for certain messages in the French locale, including account linking messages. A user reported: > "Message 'You tried signing in with remi.dewitte@synako.fr which is already in use by another account. You can sign in using your password.' is not translated." This appears to be the same message type (1010016) that you're encountering. ## How to Add Custom Translations Currently, the Account Experience supports multiple languages including English, Spanish, German, French, Portuguese, Polish, Finnish, Dutch, and Swedish as mentioned in the [Account Experience documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/account-experience). However, custom translations are not directly supported through the Ory Console. The documentation states: > "Custom translations are not supported at the moment, but please reach out if you need this feature." ## Available Options 1. Contribute to Ory Elements: As mentioned in the [Account Experience documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/account-experience), if you want to add translations or fix wording, you can open a pull request in the [ory/elements repository](https://github.com/ory/elements#internalization-i18n). 2. Use a Custom UI: If you're using your own custom UI, you can handle translations yourself by checking for the message ID (1010016) and displaying your own translated text. 3. Contact Ory Support: Since custom translations aren't officially supported yet, you might want to reach out to Ory support to request this feature or get guidance on implementing translations for specific messages. For your specific case with message ID 1010016, you would need to either contribute a translation to the ory/elements repository or implement the translation in your custom UI by checking for this specific message ID. Would you like more information about implementing translations in a custom UI or contributing to the Ory Elements repository?
