Custom sender in passwordless/start

Hi, im using /passwordless/start to send SMS connection code to my clients.
Is there any way to configure the sender inside this api? I need to configure it manualy every time im sending the SMS with my SMS provider.

Hi @mcloha

Welcome to the Auth0 Community!

Thank you for posting your question. Unfortunately, the /passwordless/start API endpoint does not currently support directly setting a custom sender when sending SMS connection codes.

Available workaround to this could be the usage of Custom SMS Gateway that would take a role of proxy and transform your request to the desired outcome. Make sure to follow this guide → Set Up Custom SMS Gateway for Passwordless Connections and align your proxy layer to the request from Auth0 properly.

Thanks

Thanks for your reply. Actually I already configured the custom sms gateway and it works pretty well, but I have to add some additional context when triggering the passwordleas/start endpoint so my sms gateway will receive it. It’s just business logic context that I need to implement before sending the sms message.

Is there some header or parameter that I can pass to passwordleas/start request (like x-custom-context) so it will be on the request that triggers my custom sms gateway endpoint?
