Hi, I want to generate an MFA token without passing user credentials. (email, password) Use case is I want to integrate OTP on users changing their password inside my application as the last step of changing their password. However I need to get an mfa\_token to use along with OTP code provided in user’s authenticator. ---

Hello @jbrb welcome to our community! `mfa_tokens` are produced as part of an error in an authentication flow called `mfa_required`. There is no way to generate an `mfa_token` without an error in the authentication flow. We recommend you to search for an alternative solution that fits your requirements. Thank you! ---
