Description
"Our application creates users programmatically and I was creating users like so:
const spApplication = req.app.get('stormpathApplication');
spApplication.createAccount(acct);
With some debugging, that method doesn’t correctly create a user fully. It was missing some fields like the “recovery_question” and answer.
I did some digging around in the source code of express-stormpath and found this:
|
oktaUser.credentials.recovery_question = { |
oktaUser.profile.emailVerificationStatus = 'UNVERIFIED';
oktaUser.profile.emailVerificationToken = uuid.v4();
oktaUser.profile.stormpathMigrationRecoveryAnswer = uuid.v4();
oktaUser.credentials.recovery_question = {
question: 'stormpathMigrationRecoveryAnswer',
answer: oktaUser.profile.stormpathMigrationRecoveryAnswer
};
So I finally had to create a user manually using the okta node sdk.
Without these fields, the reset password would fail silently."
