PreSign Up trigger with autoConfirm user does not seem to work with Authenticator component about amplify-ui HOT 9 CLOSED

@jordanranz can you let us know what the built-in workaround is?

from amplify-ui.

@vchaddha can you provide a code snippet of your Authenticator component? Thanks ahead of time

from amplify-ui.

Below is the component that I am using for auth

<amplify-authenticator [signUpConfig]="signUpConfig" [hide]="['Greetings']"></amplify-authenticator>

Below is the signUpConfig

signUpFields: [
      {
        label: 'Username',
        key: 'username',
        required: true,
        displayOrder: 1,
        type: 'string'
      },
      {
        label: 'Password',
        key: 'password',
        required: true,
        displayOrder: 2,
        type: 'password'
      },
      { 
        key: 'custom:name',
        label: 'Hospital Name',
        displayOrder: 3,
        required: true,
        type: 'string'
      },
      {
        label: 'Zip Code',
        key: 'custom:zipcode',
        required: true,
        displayOrder: 4,
        type: 'string'
      },
      {
        label: 'Email',
        key: 'email',
        required: true,
        displayOrder: 5,
        type: 'string'
      },
      {
        label: 'Phone Number',
        key: 'phone_number',
        required: true,
        displayOrder: 6,
        type: 'string'
      }
    ]
  };

Was able to speak offline about this and find a built-in workaround. Going to build better handling into the new UI components.

from amplify-ui.

Hey there, we have simillar issue. We are autoConfirming the users, but still want to send them an email with code, to verify their email address. When we pass the autoConfirm flag to true, it does not send them an email. We want to actually verify the email by sending them the code, because we can't just "trust" them and autoverify the emails too. I tried to use resendConfirmationCodeAsync, but it returns me an error, that the user is already verified. Any ideas on how to do this, or any workaround?

from amplify-ui.

Any news on this?
I'm loosing 70% of users in the verification step and desperately want to get rid of it.
Pre Sign-up Lambda Trigger works fine but the UI still shows the step (and no code is emailed)

from amplify-ui.

At the very least, the verification step should be skipped when:

User cannot be confirmed. Current status is CONFIRMED

from amplify-ui.

Hi @vchaddha and @AdamGustavsson

I am working on a solution for this with the new Authenticator. I'll be giving more updates shortly.

You can find more about the new authenticator here

from amplify-ui.

The updates in the new authenticator are now merged and in place. If you're using a PreSign up lambda trigger to auto confirm users, the authenticator will detect this and now skip the confirm verify page.

Please note, that if the user is confirmed, but their email is NOT confirmed, the next time they sign in they will be asked if they'd like to confirm their email. They don't have to confirm their email, they will still have an option to skip at the bottom of the page.

If you'd like a user to never confirm their email, then you'll need to setup the lambda trigger to confirm the email as well as the user. Like this.

 exports.handler = async (event, context, callback) => {
    // Confirm the user
    event.response.autoConfirmUser = true;
    // Set the email as verified if it is in the request
    if (event.request.userAttributes.hasOwnProperty('email')) {
      event.response.autoVerifyEmail = true;
    }
    // Set the phone number as verified if it is in the request
    if (event.request.userAttributes.hasOwnProperty('phone_number')) {
      event.response.autoVerifyPhone = true;
    }
    callback(null, event);
  };

I'll close this issue, but feel free to create another one if this doesn't work for you.
