Applies To

  • Post User Registration
  • Action

Solution

The following Post-User-Registration Action code will send a change password email once a user signs up:
Note that client ID is not currently available in a Post user registration trigger, but it may be possible to infer it from the event.transaction object via the redirect_uri for example. If no client ID is supplied, a tenant level default login route must be configured to provide a user with a “Back to…” button after submitting their new password. See Complete password reset flow for more details.

exports.onExecutePostUserRegistration = async (event, api) => {
  var axios = require("axios").default;

  const sendPasswordResetEmail = () => {
    var options = {
      method: 'POST',
      url: 'https://YOUR_DOMAIN}/dbconnections/change_password',
      headers: {'content-type': 'application/json'},
      data: {
        client_id: '<insertClientIDHere>',
        email: 'event.user.email',
        connection: 'event.connection.name'
        
      }
    };
    try{
    axios.request(options).then(function (response) {
      console.log("Response: ",response.data);
    })
    }catch(error){
      console.error(error)
    }
  }
