Hello everyone,
I have successfully implemented the recovery flow (for SPA), but I am currently looking for a possibility to extract the flow id and the token via API that were send to the user with the recovery mail, is this somehow possible?

Hi <@U02GX5SET4Y>
why do you want to extract the flow id and token? I suppose it is possible by looking up the user in the Kratos database.

I have an existing userbase that has to be imported and I do not want to "scare" my users by sending out recovery mails

so the plan is to import them and automate the recovery process before we switch the auth provider

Currently my plan includes spinning up a mailslurper where the mails get "stuck", fetch the sqlite and get it from there, but this is just another external dependency

You can provide email templates, so you can state in there why it is needed
Other than that, you are probably looking for <https://github.com/ory/kratos/issues/1030>
