How to Automatically Send Password Reset Email When User Enters Email During Login

Problem statement

Is there a way to automatically send a Password Reset Email with the New Universal Login when a user enters just their email as an identifier?

In this scenario, users are pre-created with passwords. Rather than requiring users to click ‘forgot password’ and re-enter their email, it is possible to send the password reset email without user intervention?

Solution

This is currently not supported yet. However, the Auth0 Product Team is working on a new Action extensibility point that will run after a user enters their identifier (email in this case). This extensibility point could trigger a Password Reset email, among other operations. This feature is expected to be available in 2024, but the general access (GA) date has yet to be confirmed.
