Hey Lihua, I appreciate that you’re waiting on an ETA, but am wondering if you have any indication as to whether we’re talking days, weeks, or months for a fix?

We might need to look at workarounds if it’s going to be months…

Thanks in advance.

I agree with Ian. I was expecting this as a quick hotfix, but it doesn’t seem to be the priority that it is to everyone on this thread and other customers impacted without even knowing.

@lihua.zhang Any update on this one? This is a big issue for those having users sign up, and given this is now 3 months old, it seems Auth0 doesn’t consider this to be a serious problem like your clients do.

Hello, any updates about this?
Still getting an error “Your email address could not be verified.” instead of “This account is already verified.”

+1 for this issue.

Any ETA on this?

Worked fine for a long time and we’re receiving a lot of support requests related to this bug.
Things not working as mentioned in the documentation is quite a serious issue.
Please try to get a fix for this asap.

The ticket has been open for almost a year so I’m hoping that there is some workaround for this. If there is, please let us know.

@ranjith.dhanaraj Agree this is serious problem that they are ignoring. We are currently working around the issue by taking all 3 of the below responses and assuming they mean the email has been verified, but that comes with some risks/assumptions on the last one especially, which is what we get now if the verification link was already used.

  • Your email was verified. You can continue using the application. (with success=true)
  • This account is already verified. (with success=false)
  • This URL can be used only once (with success=false)
