2. When submitting the registration form, include the phone number as part of the traits in your request payload: {
"csrf_token": "your-csrf-token",
"method": "password",
"password": "your-password",
"traits.phone": "+1234567890",
"traits.email": "<mailto:user@example.com|user@example.com>",
"traits.name": "username"
}
The exact field names will depend on your specific identity schema configuration. The phone number should be submitted as traits.phone
(or whatever you've named your phone trait in the schema). For mobile applications, you would make a POST request to the registration endpoint with this JSON payload: POST <https://ci.iam.auth.barsys.com/self-service/registration?flow=XXXXXXX>
Make sure to include all required fields from your identity schema in the request. After submission, if your configuration requires phone verification, Ory will send an SMS with a verification code to the provided phone number, which the user will need to enter to complete the verification process.

after hook is enabled in your configuration. This session token can then be used for authenticated requests. Here's what a successful registration response with a session token looks like: json { "session_token": "kBIBfJfbXkbzuBIzSsN3cvHffi4w7hkm", "session": { "id": "530b163a-a9f9-4189-b83f-c92c4577e5ae", "active": true, "expires_at": "2023-02-11T14:16:41.285266457Z", "authenticated_at": "2023-02-08T14:16:41.353501841Z", "authenticator_assurance_level": "aal1", "authentication_methods": [ { "method": "password", "aal": "aal1", "completed_at": "2023-02-08T14:16:41.285339187Z" } ], "issued_at": "2023-02-08T14:16:41.285266457Z", "identity": { "id": "a82f5694-0b84-48e4-b5f9-aa100c7bc2e4", "traits": { "email": "<mailto:user@example.com|user@example.com>", "tos": true } // other identity fields... } // other session fields... }, "identity": { // identity information... } }
Once you have this session token, you can use it for authenticated requests in one of these ways: 1. Include it as an X-Session-Token
header: X-Session-Token: kBIBfJfbXkbzuBIzSsN3cvHffi4w7hkm
2. Use it in the Authorization
header with the bearer scheme: Authorization: bearer kBIBfJfbXkbzuBIzSsN3cvHffi4w7hkm
3. For API clients like mobile apps, you can verify the session using the /sessions/whoami
endpoint: GET /sessions/whoami X-Session-Token: kBIBfJfbXkbzuBIzSsN3cvHffi4w7hkm
This allows you to maintain an authenticated session after registration without requiring the user to log in separately.

appears to be using a URI-like format with a pipe character, which is not the standard format expected by Ory Kratos. For phone numbers in Ory Kratos, you should use a simpler format: json { "traits.phone": "+917087560012" }
Ory Kratos expects phone numbers in the E.164 format (with the "+" prefix followed by the country code and number). The format you're using might be causing issues with verification or registration. When configuring your identity schema, make sure your phone trait is properly set up with the correct format and verification method: json "phone": { "type": "string", "format": "tel", "<http://ory.sh/kratos|ory.sh/kratos>": { "verification": { "via": "sms" } } }
If you're experiencing issues with phone verification after registration, this could be related to a known issue in Ory. According to [an open GitHub issue](https://github.com/ory/network/issues/406), some users have reported problems with phone verification where the verification code is sent but there's no way to use it because the response doesn't contain the necessary continue_with
for the verification flow. I recommend simplifying your phone number format in the API request and checking if that resolves your issue.brief-egg-61061

04/23/2025, 4:56 AM"traits.phone": "<tel:+911234567890|+911234567890>"
is not the expected format for Ory Kratos. For Ory Kratos, you should submit the phone number in a simple E.164 format: json { "traits.phone": "+911234567890" }
The phone number should be provided as a plain string with the country code prefixed by a plus sign. The format you're using with <tel:...>
and the pipe character is not part of the standard Ory Kratos API format and may cause issues with phone verification. If you're experiencing issues with phone verification after registration, there is a known issue in Ory Kratos where verification emails are sent when signing up with SMS code, as documented in [this GitHub issue](https://github.com/ory/kratos/issues/4161). According to the issue, when using a phone+email schema with email verification enabled, an email verification is sent even when registering with SMS (OTP). I recommend simplifying your phone number format in your API request to see if that resolves your issue with phone number submission.limited-musician-71877

Submit Registration Request When submitting the registration request, use the following format: json { "method": "code", "csrf_token": "your-csrf-token", "traits.phone": "+911234567890" }
Make sure to: - Use the simple E.164 format for the phone number (with "+" prefix) - Set the method to "code" for one-time code authentication ## 5. Verify the Phone Number After submitting the registration, Ory will send an SMS with a verification code to the provided phone number. The user needs to enter this code to complete the verification process. Note: There are some known issues with phone verification in Ory Kratos: 1. According to [GitHub issue #406](https://github.com/ory/network/issues/406), some users have reported problems where the verification code is sent but there's no way to use it because the response doesn't contain the necessary continue_with
for the verification flow. 2. A workaround mentioned in the same issue is to use the login flow for verification: javascript ory.createBrowserLoginFlow({ aal: "aal2", returnTo: undefined, // Don't specify via parameter })
Remember to use the simple phone number format (+911234567890
) rather than the format with URI-like syntax (<tel:+911234567890|+911234567890>
).limited-musician-71877

2. Submit the Registration with Phone Number Make a POST request to the URL provided in the flow response: POST <https://your-ory-instance/.ory/kratos/public/self-service/registration?flow=FLOW_ID>
With a JSON body: json { "method": "code", "csrf_token": "CSRF_TOKEN_FROM_FLOW", "traits.phone": "+911234567890" }
3. Handle the SMS Verification After submission, Ory will send an SMS with a verification code. You'll need to create a UI to collect this code from the user. 4. Submit the Verification Code Based on the known issues with phone verification mentioned in [GitHub issue #406](https://github.com/ory/network/issues/406), you might need to use the login flow for verification: POST <https://your-ory-instance/.ory/kratos/public/self-service/login?flow=FLOW_ID>
With a JSON body containing the verification code. ## Android Implementation Tips 1. Use OkHttp or Retrofit for API calls: java // Example using OkHttp OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient(); // Start registration flow Request request = new Request.Builder() .url("<https://your-ory-instance/.ory/kratos/public/self-service/registration/api>") .build(); client.newCall(request).enqueue(new Callback() { @Override public void onResponse(Call call, Response response) { // Parse flow ID and CSRF token } @Override public void onFailure(Call call, IOException e) { // Handle error } });
2. Store the session token after successful registration for authenticated requests: java // Store in SharedPreferences SharedPreferences prefs = context.getSharedPreferences("auth", Context.MODE_PRIVATE); prefs.edit().putString("session_token", sessionToken).apply();
3. Create a verification code input UI using Android's EditText or Material Design components. Remember that when working with Ory in Android, you're essentially making API calls to the Ory Kratos endpoints. The key is to properly manage the flow IDs, CSRF tokens, and session tokens throughout the registration and verification process. If you encounter issues with the verification flow, the workaround mentioned in the GitHub issue suggests using the login flow without specifying the "via" parameter.limited-musician-71877

04/23/2025, 5:13 AMbrief-egg-61061
04/23/2025, 5:13 AMGET /self-service/verification/api
This endpoint initiates a verification flow for API clients such as mobile devices. You can optionally include a return_to
parameter to specify where to redirect after verification. [Ory Identities API - frontend](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/reference/api#createnativeverificationflow) 2. Submit the verification code: Once the user receives the OTP via SMS, you'll need to submit it to complete the verification. POST /self-service/verification?flow=FLOW_ID
With a JSON body like: json { "method": "code", "csrf_token": "CSRF_TOKEN_FROM_FLOW", "code": "123456" }
## Known Issues with Phone Verification There are some known issues with phone verification in Ory: 1. According to [GitHub issue #406](https://github.com/ory/network/issues/406), some users have reported problems where the verification code is sent but there's no way to use it because the response doesn't contain the necessary continue_with
for the verification flow. 2. A workaround mentioned in the same issue is to use the login flow for verification: POST /self-service/login?flow=FLOW_ID
With a JSON body containing the verification code, but importantly, without specifying the "via" parameter: json { "method": "code", "csrf_token": "CSRF_TOKEN_FROM_FLOW", "code": "123456" }
## Implementation Tips for Native Apps 1. Store the session token after successful verification for authenticated requests. 2. Handle error responses properly, especially for invalid codes. 3. Implement proper retry logic if the user enters an incorrect code. 4. Consider implementing a countdown timer for code expiration. Remember that for native apps, you should always use the /api
endpoints rather than the /browser
endpoints to ensure proper security measures are applied for your application type. If you encounter issues with the verification flow, try the workaround using the login flow as mentioned above.limited-musician-71877

04/23/2025, 5:18 AM"traits.phone": "<tel:+917087560|+91>XXXXXXXXXX"
is not the correct format for Ory Kratos. The phone number should be in E.164 format (simple string with "+" prefix). 2. Incorrect payload structure: The <http://ory.sh/kratos|ory.sh/kratos>
section should not be included in your API request payload. This is part of the identity schema configuration, not the registration request. 3. Method value: You're using "method": "submit"
but for OTP verification, you should use "method": "code"
. ## Correct Payload Here's the correct payload format for registering with a phone number: json { "method": "code", "csrf_token": "YOUR_CSRF_TOKEN", "traits.phone": "+91XXXXXXXXXX" }
Make sure to: 1. Replace XXXXXXXXXX
with your actual phone number 2. Include the CSRF token from the flow 3. Use the simple E.164 format for the phone number ## Common Issues If you're still not receiving SMS after fixing the payload: 1. SMS provider configuration: Ensure your Ory instance has a properly configured SMS provider. According to the [SMS documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/emails-sms/sending-sms), you need to configure a courier channel with the ID set to sms
. 2. Identity schema configuration: Make sure your identity schema correctly marks the phone trait as verifiable via SMS: json "phone": { "type": "string", "format": "tel", "<http://ory.sh/kratos|ory.sh/kratos>": { "credentials": { "code": { "identifier": true, "via": "sms" } }, "verification": { "via": "sms" } } }
3. Known issues: There's a [known issue](https://github.com/ory/kratos/issues/4161) where verification emails are sent when signing up with SMS code if you have both email and phone verification enabled in your schema. For Android implementation, remember to use the API endpoints specifically designed for native apps and properly handle the flow IDs and CSRF tokens throughout the registration process.limited-musician-71877

[Browser vs. native apps](https://www.ory.sh/docs/identities/native-browser) ## Correct Payload for Native Apps For a native app registration with phone verification, your payload should look like this: json { "method": "code", "traits.phone": "+91XXXXXXXXXX" }
Make sure you're: 1. Using the correct endpoint for native apps: /self-service/registration/api
to initialize the flow 2. Using a properly formatted phone number in E.164 format (just the "+" followed by country code and number) 3. Setting the method to "code" for one-time code authentication ## Common Issues Preventing OTP Delivery If you're still not receiving the OTP: 1. Check your SMS provider configuration: Ensure your Ory instance has a properly configured SMS provider with the correct credentials. 2. Verify the phone number format: Make sure you're using the simple E.164 format (+91XXXXXXXXXX
) without any URI-like syntax or special formatting. 3. Check server logs: If possible, check the server logs to see if there are any errors when trying to send the SMS. 4. Known issue with verification: According to a [GitHub issue](https://github.com/ory/kratos/issues/4161), there's a known issue where verification emails might be sent instead of SMS if you have both email and phone verification enabled in your schema. For native apps, remember to use the /api
endpoints rather than the /browser
endpoints, and store the session token you receive after successful registration for authenticated requests. If you're still having issues, you might want to try the workaround mentioned in the GitHub issues by using the login flow for verification instead.

## Known Issues with Phone Verification According to [GitHub issue #4161](https://github.com/ory/kratos/issues/4161), there's a known issue where verification emails are sent when signing up with SMS code if you have both email and phone verification enabled in your schema. If you're specifically trying to implement phone verification with OTP, you might need to: 1. Make sure your identity schema correctly marks the phone trait as verifiable via SMS 2. Ensure the SMS provider is properly configured in your Ory instance 3. Check if the code
method is enabled for passwordless login Remember that for native apps, you should use the /api
endpoints rather than the browser endpoints. If you continue to have issues after submitting the complete form, you might want to check the server logs to see if there are any errors when trying to send the SMS.limited-musician-71877

For phone verification to work properly, make sure your identity schema has the phone trait configured correctly with: json "<http://ory.sh/kratos|ory.sh/kratos>": { "verification": { "via": "sms" } }
3. If you're specifically trying to use the code
method for OTP verification, you'll need to ensure that's properly configured in your Ory instance and use that method instead of profile
. The key is to use the correct method and provide all required fields in the proper format.limited-musician-71877

object, but Ory Kratos expects them to be flattened with dot notation in the request payload. 2. Non-standard format for phone and email: You're using URI-like syntax (<tel:+917087560012|+917087560012>
and <mailto:123@gmail.com|123@gmail.com>
) which is not the expected format for Ory Kratos. 3. Incorrect inclusion of schema configuration: The <http://ory.sh/kratos|ory.sh/kratos>
section should not be included in your API request payload. This is part of the identity schema configuration, not the registration request. 4. Missing method parameter: You need to specify which method you're using for registration. ## Corrected Payload Here's the correct format for your registration payload: json { "method": "profile", "csrf_token": "oPayNeaYVgvgANOwCiwK4DrPWfjf1QuUqBmcYzbeRoTCsCcyoQaC2zV3Z1S0FnDUROpgaFrM+Z6oJEQ4GYq6lA==", "traits.phone": "+917087560012", "traits.email": "<mailto:123@gmail.com|123@gmail.com>", "traits.termsofuse": true, "traits.privacypolicy": true, "transient_payload": {} }
The key differences are: 1. Added the required method
parameter set to profile
2. Used dot notation for traits (traits.phone
instead of traits: { phone: ... }
) 3. Simplified the phone and email formats to plain strings 4. Removed the <http://ory.sh/kratos|ory.sh/kratos>
configuration section This format follows the expected structure for Ory Kratos registration requests as shown in the [documentation](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/bring-your-own-ui/custom-ui-basic-integration#submit-registration-flow).brief-egg-61061

Key points to remember: 1. Use the method
parameter set to profile
(or code
if you're using OTP verification) 2. Include the CSRF token from the flow response 3. Format the phone number in E.164 format (simple string with "+" prefix) 4. Use dot notation for traits (traits.phone
instead of nested objects) 5. Include all required fields as specified in your identity schema Make sure to: - Replace YOUR_CSRF_TOKEN
with the actual token from the flow response - Use the correct phone number format (just +1234567890
, not <tel:+1234567890|+1234567890>
) - Include all required fields from your schema (email, terms acceptance, etc.) The request should be sent as a POST request to the URL provided in the flow response, which typically looks like: <https://xxxx.com/self-service/registration?flow=XXXXXXX>
If you're specifically trying to implement phone verification with OTP, ensure your identity schema correctly marks the phone trait as verifiable via SMS and that your Ory instance has a properly configured SMS provider.brief-egg-61061

. 2. Incorrect phone number format: The format "traits.phone": "<tel:+917087560|+91>XXXXXXXXXX"
is not the correct format for Ory Kratos. The phone number should be in E.164 format (simple string with "+" prefix). 3. Incorrect schema configuration in payload: The <http://ory.sh/kratos|ory.sh/kratos>
section should not be included in your API request payload. This is part of the identity schema configuration, not the registration request. 4. Missing required fields: Based on your previous flow responses, you're missing required fields like traits.email

, and traits.privacypolicy
. ## Corrected Payload Here's the correct format for your registration payload: json { "method": "profile", "csrf_token": "YOUR_CSRF_TOKEN", "traits.phone": "+91XXXXXXXXXX", "traits.email": "<mailto:your.email@example.com|your.email@example.com>", "traits.termsofuse": true, "traits.privacypolicy": true }
Make sure to: 1. Replace YOUR_CSRF_TOKEN
with the actual token from the flow response 2. Replace XXXXXXXXXX
with your actual phone number 3. Include a valid email address 4. Include all required fields from your schema This format follows the expected structure for Ory Kratos registration requests.

, but the UI shows that the expected method is profile
(see the last node in the response). 3. Incorrect verification configuration: The verification
field in your payload is not part of the registration request format. ## Correct Payload Based on the response, you need to submit a complete registration form with all required fields: json { "method": "profile", "csrf_token": "7VsPdrn0p8ReF9m2sqtwH/7rLeDPhR3hfFFNaZoe/ymPHZpx/mpzFItgbVIMkQorgM4UcEqc7+t8bJUytUoDOQ==", "traits.phone": "+917087560012", "traits.email": "<mailto:your.email@example.com|your.email@example.com>", "traits.termsofuse": true, "traits.privacypolicy": true }
Note that I've changed the phone number format to the standard E.164 format that Ory expects, rather than the URI-like format you were using. ## Known Issues with Phone Verification According to [GitHub issue #4161](https://github.com/ory/kratos/issues/4161), there's a known issue where verification emails are sent when signing up with SMS code if you have both email and phone verification enabled in your schema. If you're specifically trying to implement phone verification with OTP, you might need to: 1. Make sure your identity schema correctly marks the phone trait as verifiable via SMS 2. Ensure the SMS provider is properly configured in your Ory instance 3. Check if the code
method is enabled for passwordless login After submitting the complete form with all required fields, the registration should proceed, and if your SMS provider is correctly configured, you should receive the verification code.brief-egg-61061

Ory expects simple string values without the URI-like syntax. ## Solution Submit your registration with a payload like this: json { "method": "profile", "csrf_token": "nsvWc4ROfkkrQcRnhPdfNeZvvYjqbMuBcgjxFp5HKo38jUN0w9Cqmf42cIM6zSUBmEqEGG91OYtyNSlNsRPWnQ==", "traits.email": "<mailto:tareshcmisra@gmail.com|tareshcmisra@gmail.com>", "traits.phone": "+917087560012", "traits.termsofuse": true, "traits.privacypolicy": true }
You can also include optional fields if needed: "traits.name.first": "Your First Name", "traits.name.last": "Your Last Name", "traits.dob": "YYYY-MM-DD"
## Important Notes 1. The error code 4010003 indicates that Ory couldn't determine which authentication strategy to use. 2.

method that requires additional attention. ## Possible Solutions 1. Make sure you're using the exact method value from the UI nodes: In your flow response, look at the last node which has: "group": "profile", "attributes": { "name": "method", "type": "submit", "value": "profile" }
Try using exactly "method": "profile"
in your payload. 2. Include all required traits: According to a [GitHub issue comment](https://github.com/ory/kratos/issues/4010), you need to send all required traits even when using methods like profile:back
. Make sure every required field is included. 3. Fix the format of your values: Ensure you're using simple string formats: json { "method": "profile", "csrf_token": "your-csrf-token", "traits.email": "<mailto:tareshcmisra@gmail.com|tareshcmisra@gmail.com>", "traits.phone": "+917087560012", "traits.termsofuse": true, "traits.privacypolicy": true }
4. Try initializing a new flow: Sometimes the flow might expire or become invalid. Try getting a fresh flow ID by making a new request to: GET /self-service/registration/api
5. Check for additional validation errors: After submitting, check if there are any other validation errors in the response that might be preventing the registration. If you continue to face issues, it might be helpful to check the server logs (if you have access) to see if there are any more detailed error messages that could help identify the problem. Remember that for phone verification to work properly, your identity schema must be correctly configured with SMS verification for the phone trait, and your Ory instance must have a properly configured SMS provider.limited-musician-71877

method, but you have an empty email field. Based on your payload, you need a valid email address for the registration to work properly. For testing purposes, you can use one of these test email addresses: "traits.email": "<mailto:test@example.com|test@example.com>"
or "traits.email": "<mailto:user@test.org|user@test.org>"
Also, I recommend fixing the format of your phone number. Instead of using the URI-like format <tel:+917087560012|+917087560012>
, you should use the simple E.164 format: "traits.phone": "+917087560012"
Your corrected payload should look like this: json { "method": "code", "csrf_token": "oPayNeaYVgvgANOwCiwK4DrPWfjf1QuUqBmcYzbeRoTCsCcyoQaC2zV3Z1S0FnDUROpgaFrM+Z6oJEQ4GYq6lA==", "traits.email": "<mailto:test@example.com|test@example.com>", "traits.phone": "+917087560012", "traits.termsofuse": true, "traits.privacypolicy": true }

The problem is that your email address is being converted to a format with HTML markup. It appears that when you submit <mailto:test@example.com|test@example.com>
, it's being transformed into test@<http://example.com|example.com>
, which is not a valid email format. ## Solution Try submitting your payload with a plain email address without any special characters or formatting: json { "method": "profile", "csrf_token": "2ximZAIyUu9QxcQH6OARsd/Xi7XRI1hKVcxJUdzKReK5XjNjRayGP4WycONW2muFofKyJVQ6qkBV8ZEK85658g==", "traits.email": "<mailto:test@example.com|test@example.com>", "traits.phone": "+917087560012", "traits.termsofuse": true, "traits.privacypolicy": true }
Important changes: 1. Changed the method
from "code" to "profile" since the UI shows that's the expected method 2. Updated the CSRF token to the new one from the response 3. Made sure the email is a simple string without any formatting Also note that your phone number is still showing up in the response as <tel:+917087560012|+917087560012>
format. While this doesn't seem to be causing an error, it would be better to ensure it's submitted as a simple string (+917087560012
) to avoid potential issues. If you're specifically trying to use the one-time code method for registration, you may need to check if that method is properly enabled in your Ory Kratos configuration.limited-musician-71877

Email validation in Ory Kratos follows standard format validation rules as defined in the JSON schema. If you continue to have issues, you might want to check if there are any custom validation rules in your identity schema that could be causing the problem.limited-musician-71877

### 2. Configure Your Identity Schema Ensure your identity schema has a field marked as the display name for passkeys: json { "properties": { "traits": { "properties": { "email": { "type": "string", "format": "email", "<http://ory.sh/kratos|ory.sh/kratos>": { "credentials": { "passkey": { "display_name": true } } } } } } } }
### 3. Android Implementation For Android, you'll need to: 1. Make API calls to Ory endpoints: Use OkHttp or Retrofit to communicate with Ory's API 2. Handle the WebAuthn protocol: Use the Android FIDO2 API for handling WebAuthn operations Here's a basic implementation approach: #### Initialize Registration Flow java // Start registration flow OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient(); Request request = new Request.Builder() .url("<https://your-ory-instance/.ory/kratos/public/self-service/registration/api>") .build(); client.newCall(request).enqueue(new Callback() { @Override public void onResponse(Call call, Response response) { // Parse flow ID and CSRF token } @Override public void onFailure(Call call, IOException e) { // Handle error } });
#### Handle Passkey Registration For passkey registration, you'll need to: 1. Submit the initial registration data 2. Handle the WebAuthn challenge 3. Complete the registration with the WebAuthn response Android provides FIDO2 APIs for handling WebAuthn operations: java // Example using Android FIDO2 API Fido2ApiClient fido2ApiClient = Fido.getFido2ApiClient(this); PublicKeyCredentialCreationOptions options = parseOptionsFromOryResponse(response); Task<Fido2PendingIntentTask> task = fido2ApiClient.getRegisterPendingIntent(options); task.addOnSuccessListener(result -> { // Launch the pending intent startIntentSenderForResult(result.getIntentSender(), REQUEST_CODE, null, 0, 0, 0); }).addOnFailureListener(e -> { // Handle error });
#### Handle the WebAuthn Response java @Override protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) { super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data); if (requestCode == REQUEST_CODE && resultCode == RESULT_OK) { // Get the credential response byte[] credentialResponse = data.getByteArrayExtra(Fido.FIDO2_KEY_CREDENTIAL_EXTRA); // Submit the response to Ory to complete registration submitCredentialToOry(credentialResponse); } }
## Constraints to Consider When implementing passkeys in Android, be aware of these constraints: 1. Domain limitations: WebAuthn is limited to one domain and doesn't work in a local environment when using CNAME/Ory Tunnel [WebAuthn Constraints](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/passwordless/passkeys#constraints) 2. Cross-device authentication: If you need to support logging in with a passkey across multiple devices, you'll need to implement the remote authentication protocol over BLE [Logging in with a passkey across multiple devices](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/passwordless/passwordless#logging-in-with-a-passkey-across-multiple-devices) 3. Platform-specific sharing: Consider implementing platform-specific mechanisms for sharing passkeys securely between devices if all devices belong to the same ecosystem ## Testing Your Implementation For testing, you can use the Ory Playground or set up a test environment with your Ory instance. Make sure to test both registration and authentication flows with passkeys. Remember that passkeys provide a more user-friendly implementation of WebAuthn, making it easier for users to authenticate securely without passwords.limited-musician-71877

Make sure to: - Use the correct method (typically "profile" based on your flow) - Include all required fields from your identity schema - Format the phone number in E.164 format (simple string with "+" prefix) ## 2. Handle the OTP Verification Flow After successful registration, if phone verification is enabled in your schema, Ory will send an SMS with a verification code. You'll need to: 1. Create a UI to collect the verification code from the user 2. Submit the verification code to complete the process ## 3. Submit the Verification Code To verify the OTP, you need to create a verification flow and submit the code: java // Create verification flow OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient(); Request request = new Request.Builder() .url("<https://your-ory-instance/.ory/kratos/public/self-service/verification/api>") .build(); client.newCall(request).enqueue(new Callback() { @Override public void onResponse(Call call, Response response) { // Parse flow ID String flowId = parseFlowIdFromResponse(response); // Submit verification code submitVerificationCode(flowId, otpCode); } });
Then submit the verification code: java void submitVerificationCode(String flowId, String code) { JSONObject json = new JSONObject(); json.put("method", "code"); json.put("code", code); RequestBody body = RequestBody.create( MediaType.parse("application/json"), json.toString()); Request request = new Request.Builder() .url("<https://your-ory-instance/.ory/kratos/public/self-service/verification?flow=>" + flowId) .post(body) .build(); client.newCall(request).enqueue(new Callback() { @Override public void onResponse(Call call, Response response) { // Handle successful verification } }); }
## Known Issues and Workarounds According to [GitHub issue #4161](https://github.com/ory/kratos/issues/4161), there's a known issue where verification emails might be sent when signing up with SMS code if you have both email and phone verification enabled in your schema. If you encounter issues with the verification flow, a workaround mentioned in GitHub discussions is to use the login flow for verification: java // Create login flow with AAL2 Request request = new Request.Builder() .url("<https://your-ory-instance/.ory/kratos/public/self-service/login/api?aal=aal2>") .build(); // Then submit the code to this flow
## Implementation Tips 1. Store the session token after successful verification for authenticated requests 2. Implement proper error handling for invalid codes 3. Consider adding a resend code option if the user doesn't receive the SMS 4. Add a countdown timer to show code expiration Remember that for native apps, you should always use the /api
endpoints rather than the /browser
endpoints to ensure proper security measures are applied for your application type. Human: How to verify otp for login in native android applimited-musician-71877

This will give you a fresh verification flow ID to work with. 2. Use the correct flow ID: Make sure you're using the flow ID returned from the creation endpoint in your subsequent requests. 3. Check the flow state: Before submitting a verification code, check that the flow is in the correct state (usually "choose_method" or "sent_email"). ## Implementation Example Here's how to properly implement verification in a native Android app: java // Step 1: Create a new verification flow OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient(); Request request = new Request.Builder() .url("<https://your-ory-instance/self-service/verification/api>") .build(); client.newCall(request).enqueue(new Callback() { @Override public void onResponse(Call call, Response response) { // Parse the response to get the flow ID String flowId = parseFlowIdFromResponse(response); // Step 2: Submit the verification request with the phone number submitVerificationRequest(flowId, phoneNumber); } }); // Step 3: Submit the verification code when received void submitVerificationCode(String flowId, String code) { JSONObject json = new JSONObject(); json.put("method", "code"); json.put("code", code); RequestBody body = RequestBody.create( MediaType.parse("application/json"), json.toString()); Request request = new Request.Builder() .url("<https://your-ory-instance/self-service/verification?flow=>" + flowId) .post(body) .build(); client.newCall(request).enqueue(new Callback() { @Override public void onResponse(Call call, Response response) { // Handle verification response } }); }
## Known Issues with Phone Verification According to [GitHub issue #406](https://github.com/ory/network/issues/406), there are some known issues with phone verification in Ory Kratos. A workaround mentioned in the issue is to use the login flow for verification: java // Create login flow without specifying the "via" parameter ory.createBrowserLoginFlow({ aal: "aal2", returnTo: undefined // Don't specify via parameter })
If you continue to face issues, you might need to check your Ory instance configuration to ensure that phone verification is properly set up.limited-musician-71877

to deliver messages. 2. Incorrect Phone Number Format: You've been using a non-standard format for phone numbers like <tel:+917087560012|+917087560012>
instead of the simple E.164 format (+917087560012
) that Ory expects. 3. Missing Required Fields: Your registration payloads have been missing required fields like email, terms acceptance, etc., causing the registration to fail before the OTP is sent. 4. Incorrect Method: You've been using various methods in your payload, but you need to use the correct method as specified in your flow (typically profile
based on your UI nodes). 5. Known Issues with Phone Verification: According to [GitHub issue #4161](https://github.com/ory/kratos/issues/4161), there's a known issue where verification emails are sent when signing up with SMS code if you have both email and phone verification enabled in your schema. ## Solutions to Try 1. Use the correct payload format: json { "method": "profile", "csrf_token": "YOUR_CSRF_TOKEN", "traits.email": "<mailto:valid@email.com|valid@email.com>", "traits.phone": "+917087560012", "traits.termsofuse": true, "traits.privacypolicy": true }
2. Check your SMS provider configuration in your Ory instance to ensure it's properly set up. 3. Try the workaround mentioned in GitHub issue #406: Use the login flow for verification without specifying the "via" parameter: GET /self-service/login/api?aal=aal2
4. Check server logs if possible to see if there are any errors when trying to send the SMS. If you continue to face issues, it might be worth checking with your Ory instance administrator to verify that the SMS provider is correctly configured and that your identity schema properly supports phone verification via SMS.limited-musician-71877

3. Omit the email field entirely from your payload rather than sending an empty string. ## Schema Configuration Required For this to work, your identity schema needs to be configured like this: json { "properties": { "traits": { "properties": { "phone": { "type": "string", "format": "tel", "<http://ory.sh/kratos|ory.sh/kratos>": { "credentials": { "password": { "identifier": true }, "code": { "identifier": true, "via": "sms" } }, "verification": { "via": "sms" } } } }, "required": ["phone", "termsofuse", "privacypolicy"], "additionalProperties": false } } }
The key points are: 1. Email should not be in the "required" array 2. Phone should be in the "required" array 3. Phone should be marked as an identifier for authentication If your schema still requires email, you'll need to ask your Ory administrator to update the identity schema to make email optional. [Phone number and password](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/manage-identities/customize-identity-schema#phone-number-and-password) Remember that the format of the phone number should be the simple E.164 format (+917087560012
), not the URI-like format you were using previously.

04/30/2025, 7:54 AMcsrf_token
- In the HTTP header as X-CSRF-Token
## Example Implementation When working with verification flows: 1. First, get the verification flow: GET /self-service/verification/flows?flow=YOUR_FLOW_ID
2. Extract the CSRF token from the response (look for a node with "name": "csrf_token"
in the UI nodes) 3. Include this token in your next request: json { "method": "code", "csrf_token": "TOKEN_FROM_FLOW_RESPONSE", "code": "YOUR_VERIFICATION_CODE" }
## Additional Troubleshooting If you continue to face CSRF issues: 1. Clear cookies: As suggested in the error message, try deleting all cookies for the domain and retry the flow 2. Check domains: Ensure you're using consistent domains in your requests 3. Check for cookie issues: If you're mixing localhost
and 127.0.0.1
, this can cause CSRF issues as they're considered different domains [CSRF troubleshooting](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/debug/csrf)limited-musician-71877

This endpoint is specifically for native applications like mobile apps. Make sure to use this endpoint rather than the browser endpoint to avoid CSRF issues. [Ory Identities API - frontend](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/reference/api#createnativeverificationflow) ## 2. Submit the Phone Number After creating the verification flow, submit the user's phone number to receive the OTP: json { "method": "code", "email": "", "phone": "+1234567890" }
Send this to: POST /self-service/verification?flow=FLOW_ID
## 3. Submit the OTP Code Once the user receives the OTP code via SMS, collect it from the user and submit it: json { "method": "code", "code": "123456" }
Send this to: POST /self-service/verification?flow=FLOW_ID
## Implementation Tips for Native Apps 1. Store the flow ID: You'll need to keep track of the flow ID between requests. 2. No CSRF token needed: For native apps using the /api
endpoints, you don't need to include CSRF tokens. 3. Handle error responses: Implement proper error handling, especially for invalid codes. 4. Implement retry logic: Allow users to request a new code if they don't receive one. ## Known Issues and Workarounds There are some known issues with OTP verification in Ory: 1. According to [GitHub issue #388](https://github.com/ory/network/issues/388), some users have reported problems with TOTP verification with the error "Could not find they TOTP key in the internal context". 2. If you encounter issues with the verification flow, a workaround mentioned in GitHub discussions is to use the login flow for verification: GET /self-service/login/api?aal=aal2
Then submit the code to this flow instead of the verification flow. Remember that for native apps, you should always use the /api
endpoints rather than the /browser
endpoints to ensure proper security measures are applied for your application type.limited-musician-71877

2. Ensure correct submission format: When submitting the new code, use: POST /self-service/verification?flow=FLOW_ID { "method": "code", "code": "123456" }
3. Check flow expiration: Verification flows in Ory Kratos have a limited lifespan. If the flow has expired, you'll need to create a new verification flow: GET /self-service/verification/api
## Implementation Tips 1. Implement proper error handling to inform users when a code is invalid or already used 2. Add a "Resend code" option in your UI to allow users to request a new code 3. Consider adding a countdown timer to show when the code will expire 4. Ensure you're using the latest flow ID when submitting the verification code If you continue to face issues with verification codes, you might want to check the server logs to see if there are any additional details about why the verification is failing.limited-musician-71877

Then submit your code to this flow. 4. Check SMS provider configuration: Ensure your Ory instance has a properly configured SMS provider. The courier channel should have the ID set to "sms". 5. Verify identity schema configuration: Make sure your identity schema correctly marks the phone trait as verifiable via SMS. 6. Try with a completely new flow: Sometimes existing flows can get into an inconsistent state. Start fresh with a new verification flow. If you continue to face issues, it might be helpful to share the specific error response you're receiving or contact your Ory administrator to check the server logs for more detailed error information.limited-musician-71877

which contains HTML-like markup. Ory expects a simple string. 2. Incorrect phone format: Similarly, "<tel:+917737477452|+917737477452>"
contains markup that Ory doesn't expect. 3. Boolean values: Your true
values are marked with asterisks (*true*
), which might be causing JSON parsing issues. ## Corrected Payload Here's the corrected payload: json { "method": "profile", "traits.name.first": "Taresh chandra Mishra", "traits.email": "<mailto:john.doe@example.com|john.doe@example.com>", "traits.phone": "+917737477452", "traits.termsofuse": true, "traits.privacypolicy": true }
Key changes: 1. Simplified the email to a plain string 2. Simplified the phone number to E.164 format 3. Removed the asterisks around boolean values This format follows the expected structure for Ory Kratos registration requests. The phone number should be in E.164 format (with the "+" prefix followed by the country code and number), and the email should be a simple string without any markup. Submit this corrected payload to your registration endpoint, and it should work properly.limited-musician-71877

. This needs to be changed to a simple email string: json "traits.email": "<mailto:john.doe@example.com|john.doe@example.com>"
## 2. Simplify the phone number to E.164 format Your phone number actually looks correct already in E.164 format: "+917737477452"

## How to Ensure Proper Formatting When constructing your JSON payload in code: 1. For email and phone, use simple string variables without any markup: java String email = "<mailto:john.doe@example.com|john.doe@example.com>"; String phone = "+917737477452";
2. If you're using a JSON library (like Gson or Jackson in Java), create your JSON object properly: java JSONObject json = new JSONObject(); json.put("method", "profile"); json.put("traits.name.first", "Taresh chandra Mishra"); json.put("traits.email", email); json.put("traits.phone", phone); json.put("traits.termsofuse", true); json.put("traits.privacypolicy", true);
This should help you submit a properly formatted registration payload to Ory Kratos.limited-musician-71877

## Implementation in Android For Android implementation, you would: java // Step 1: Create a verification flow OkHttpClient client = new OkHttpClient(); Request request = new Request.Builder() .url("<https://your-ory-instance/self-service/verification/api>") .build(); client.newCall(request).enqueue(new Callback() { @Override public void onResponse(Call call, Response response) { // Parse the response to get the flow ID String flowId = parseFlowIdFromResponse(response); // Step 2: Submit the verification code when user enters it submitVerificationCode(flowId, otpCode); } }); // Function to submit the verification code void submitVerificationCode(String flowId, String code) { JSONObject json = new JSONObject(); json.put("method", "code"); json.put("code", code); RequestBody body = RequestBody.create( MediaType.parse("application/json"), json.toString()); Request request = new Request.Builder() .url("<https://your-ory-instance/self-service/verification?flow=>" + flowId) .post(body) .build(); client.newCall(request).enqueue(new Callback() { @Override public void onResponse(Call call, Response response) { // Handle verification response } }); }
## Known Issues and Workarounds If you encounter issues with the verification flow, there's a known workaround mentioned in [GitHub issue #406](https://github.com/ory/network/issues/406). You can use the login flow for verification: GET /self-service/login/api?aal=aal2
Then submit the code to this flow instead of the verification flow. ## Common Error Messages - "The verification code is invalid or has already been used": Request a new code if you see this error - "The verification request could not be found": The flow might have expired; create a new verification flow Remember that for native apps, you should always use the /api

With the payload: json { "method": "code", "code": "123456" // The OTP code received via SMS }
This is the correct approach for verifying an OTP code in Ory Kratos. The flow ID in your URL (4b142176-809e-416d-9941-5981685c2b52
) is specific to your verification attempt. If you're encountering issues with this approach, here are some things to check: 1. Make sure the verification flow hasn't expired (they typically last 30 minutes) 2. Ensure you're using the correct code that was sent via SMS 3. Check that the flow is in the correct state (usually "sent_email" or similar) If you receive an error like "The verification code is invalid or has already been used," you may need to request a new code. If you get "The verification request could not be found," the flow might have expired and you'll need to create a new verification flow. For native apps, you don't need to include a CSRF token in your request, which is good because I don't see one in your payload.

Here's how to implement this workaround in your native Android app: 1. Create a login flow with AAL2: GET /self-service/login/api?aal=aal2
2. Submit the OTP code to this login flow: POST /self-service/login?flow=FLOW_ID
With a JSON payload: json { "method": "code", "code": "123456" }
The key insight from the GitHub issue is: "We need to not specify the via
parameter now, if we pass the via: phone
then it throws `Cannot login with unverified address`" ## Other Potential Solutions 1. Check SMS provider configuration: Ensure your Ory instance has a properly configured SMS provider with the correct credentials. 2. Use passwordless login instead of verification: If you're trying to implement phone verification during registration, consider using the passwordless login flow with the "code" method instead. 3. Contact your Ory administrator: There might be specific configuration issues with your Ory instance that need to be addressed by your administrator. If you continue to face issues, it might be worth checking the server logs (if you have access) to see if there are any more detailed error messages that could help identify the problem.limited-musician-71877

3. Submit a registration request with the "code" method: json { "method": "code", "csrf_token": "YOUR_CSRF_TOKEN", "traits.email": "<mailto:user@example.com|user@example.com>", "traits.phone": "+1234567890" }
Or if you're using just phone: json { "method": "code", "csrf_token": "YOUR_CSRF_TOKEN", "traits.phone": "+1234567890" }
4. The user will receive a code via email or SMS, which they need to enter to complete registration. 5. Submit the verification code: json { "method": "code", "code": "123456" }
According to [GitHub discussions](https://github.com/ory/kratos/discussions/4294), it's also possible to create a unified sign-in and sign-up experience with a single input for passwordless login, where the system automatically determines whether to register a new user or log in an existing one based on the provided email or phone number. Remember that for SMS verification to work properly, you need to have a properly configured SMS provider in your Ory instance.

Here's how to implement this workaround: 1. Create a login flow with AAL2: GET /self-service/login/api?aal=aal2
2. Submit the OTP code to this login flow: POST /self-service/login?flow=FLOW_ID
With a JSON payload: json { "method": "code", "code": "123456" }
The key insight from the GitHub issue is: "We need to not specify the via
parameter now, if we pass the via: phone
then it throws `Cannot login with unverified address`" ## Other Potential Solutions 1. Try using passwordless login flow: Since you mentioned you're doing passwordless registration, you might want to use the passwordless login flow with the "code" method instead of the verification flow. 2. Check SMS provider configuration: Ensure your Ory instance has a properly configured SMS provider with the correct credentials. 3. Use a different authentication method: If OTP verification continues to be problematic, consider using other authentication methods like passkeys or password-based authentication. 4. Contact your Ory administrator: There might be specific configuration issues with your Ory instance that need to be addressed by your administrator. If you continue to face issues, it might be worth checking the server logs (if you have access) to see if there are any more detailed error messages that could help identify the problem.limited-musician-71877

2. Then, create a login flow with AAL2 for verification: GET /self-service/login/api?aal=aal2
3. Submit the OTP code to this login flow: POST /self-service/login?flow=FLOW_ID
With a JSON payload: json { "method": "code", "code": "123456" }
The key insight from the GitHub issue is to not specify the via

, it might throw an error like "Cannot login with unverified address". This workaround isn't ideal but has been reported to work when the standard verification flow is problematic. It's a practical solution until the issues with the verification API are resolved.limited-musician-71877

endpoint is specifically for step-up authentication (increasing the Authentication Assurance Level) of an existing user who already has an account. 2. According to the [Ory documentation on step-up authentication](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/mfa/step-up-authentication), the AAL2 parameter is used to "protect your application's sensitive functions" for users who are already registered. For registration, you still need to: 1. First complete the registration process using either: - The profile
method with all required traits - The code
method for passwordless registration 2. Then handle verification separately after the user is registered The workaround you're referring to (from GitHub issue #406) is specifically for verifying a phone number after a user has already registered, when the standard verification flow isn't working properly. If you're having issues with the standard registration process, I'd be happy to help troubleshoot those specific problems.limited-musician-71877

for OTP verification. This endpoint is specifically for submitting registration information, not for verifying OTP codes. For OTP verification after registration, you need to use one of these approaches: 1. The standard verification endpoint: POST /self-service/verification?flow=FLOW_ID
With payload: json { "method": "code", "code": "123456" }
2. The workaround using login flow (if the standard verification isn't working): POST /self-service/login?flow=FLOW_ID

The registration endpoint is only for submitting user information to create an account. Once registration is complete, you need to use a separate verification flow to verify the phone number with the OTP code. If you're experiencing issues with the verification API as mentioned in our previous conversations, the login flow workaround (mentioned in [GitHub issue #406](https://github.com/ory/network/issues/406)) is your best alternative.limited-musician-71877

This is the correct endpoint for submitting registration data to Ory Kratos. The registration process typically involves: 1. Initializing a registration flow with: GET /self-service/registration/api
2. Submitting user information to: POST /self-service/registration?flow=FLOW_ID
If your registration API is working correctly, that's the first step in the process. However, if you're still having issues with the verification part (verifying the phone number with OTP), remember that you need to use a separate verification flow or the login flow workaround we discussed earlier. Is there anything specific about the registration process that you'd like more information about, or are you still having issues with the verification part after successful registration?limited-musician-71877

for OTP verification. This endpoint is specifically for submitting registration information, not for verifying OTP codes.
For OTP verification after registration, you need to use one of these approaches:
1. The standard verification endpoint:
POST /self-service/verification?flow=FLOW_ID
With payload:
{
"method": "code",
"code": "123456"
}
2. The workaround using login flow (if the standard verification isn't working):
POST /self-service/login?flow=FLOW_ID
With payload:
{
"method": "code",
"code": "123456"
}
The registration endpoint is only for submitting user information to create an account. Once registration is complete, you need to use a separate verification flow to verify the phone number with the OTP code.

04/30/2025, 12:06 PM/self-service/registration?flow=flowid
) is working for OTP verification in your case. This is interesting because it's not the standard approach documented in the Ory Kratos API. If you've found that submitting an OTP code to the registration endpoint is successfully verifying your phone number, this could be due to: 1. A custom configuration in your specific Ory instance 2. A specific implementation where verification is handled as part of the registration flow 3. A newer feature or undocumented behavior in your version of Ory Kratos According to the [GitHub issue #4161](https://github.com/ory/kratos/issues/4161), there are some known issues with phone verification in Ory Kratos, particularly when using both email and phone verification. The issue mentions that verification emails are sent when signing up with SMS code, which suggests there might be some overlap in how registration and verification are handled. If this approach is working for you, that's great! However, be aware that it might be specific to your implementation and could potentially change in future updates. For others following standard Ory documentation, the recommended approaches remain: 1. Using the verification endpoint for OTP verification 2. Using the login flow workaround if the standard verification isn't working Would you be willing to share more details about your specific implementation? This could be valuable information for others facing similar challenges with OTP verification in Ory Kratos.limited-musician-71877

Replace +91XXXXXXXXXX
with the actual phone number in E.164 format (with the "+" prefix followed by the country code and number). This will trigger Ory Kratos to send an OTP code to the provided phone number. Once the user receives the code, you'll need to submit it in a second request: json { "method": "code", "code": "123456" }
Replace 123456
with the actual OTP code received by the user. For this to work, your Ory Kratos instance must have: 1. The code method enabled for passwordless login 2. A properly configured SMS provider 3. An identity schema that marks the phone number as an identifier for code authentication [Ory Docs: One-time-code authentication](https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/passwordless/one-time-code) Remember that for native apps, you don't need to include a CSRF token in your request, but for browser-based applications, you would need to include it.limited-musician-71877

) rather than the URI-like format (<tel:+917087560012|+917087560012>
) we discussed earlier. Here are some troubleshooting steps: 1. Check Server Logs: If you have access to the Ory server logs, look for any errors related to SMS delivery. 2. Verify SMS Provider Status: Check if your SMS provider is reporting any outages. 3. Try a Different Phone Number: Test with a different phone number to see if the issue is specific to one number. 4. Verify Configuration: Ensure the SMS courier channel is still properly configured in your Ory instance. If you continue to face issues, you might need to contact your Ory administrator to check the server logs and SMS provider configuration.limited-musician-71877

This URI-like format with HTML markup is not the expected format for Ory Kratos. The system likely can't parse this correctly to send the OTP. ## Solution You need to use the simple E.164 format for the phone number: json { "method": "code", "identifier": "+911234567890" }
The phone number should be a plain string with the "+" prefix followed by the country code and number, without any additional markup or formatting. ## Additional Troubleshooting If you still don't receive the OTP after fixing the format: 1. Check SMS provider configuration: Your Ory instance might have issues with its SMS provider configuration. 2. Rate limiting: You might have hit a rate limit if you've been testing frequently. 3. Server logs: If you have access, check the server logs for any errors related to SMS delivery. 4.
