Is it possible to have the password reset flow log the user in?

I am trying to follow this guide for user invites: /docs/customize/email/send-email-invitations-for-application-signup

However, for the flow described as:

  1. User submits password.
  2. Change password screen redirects return URL.
  3. Target app redirects to /authorize.
  4. User submits their credentials.
  5. User is authenticated into the app.

Steps 4 is redundant given that the user has just reset their password.
Is it possible to make the authorization complete automatically based on the password reset?

Hi @greg14

Unfortunately, due to the behaviour of password reset flows, the user cannot be authenticated automatically after a password change/creating a password because the action invalidates all current sessions a user would have active and prompted to re-authenticate on any application.

However, since the user receives an application signup invite, this would make sense to act more like a signup event rather than a password change. I would advise to post on our feedback page regarding implementing this feature!

If you have any other questions, let me know!

Kind Regards,
Nik
