Is there a rate limit in Auto Send Email Verification?

I’m using Auth0 (free tier) with Username–Password-Authentication enabled and have configured Amazon SES as the email provider. Whenever a new user signs up, Auth0 automatically sends out a verification email right after signup.

My question is: does this automatic verification email sending have any rate limits on the Auth0 side? Just wondering that if that auto send is calling management API and management API does have rate limits, right?

Hi @onshout_dev and thank you for the question!

The API called when new users sign up is the Authentication API so the rate limits applied for the Free Tier are these. However, the Authentication API is only responsible for signing up the user. Sending the email will have the rate limits of the email provider applied.

I hope this answers your question!

one last question @teodor.andrei , what if i send the email programatically (ex: resending email verification via button). is there a rate limit on this API (regarding sending email verification) ?

Yes, in that case the Management API would be used and its rates will apply.

Kind regards,
Teodor.
