Custom email validation Firebase Action code

votes

I am working on a Application with firebase. I want to validat a users email, but since Firebase doesn't allow to change the verification message (To help prevent spam, the message can't be edited on this email template), i can't use this. I don't want to serve English text to my users.

Is there a way to get/generate a custom ActionCode? I used this tut https://firebase.google.com/docs/auth/custom-email-handler it might solve the problem is i can get the temp actioncode somewhere.

I found applyActionCode and checkActionCode (seems the same) but not something like createActionCode

Any news on this? I don't want to write english text to my users... - olefrank
This has duplicates at least here and here... As told in firebase support: "For each email type, you can customize the email's sender[...] and —for password reset emails— the message." ... so this is something that is pretty urgent for non-English REAL projects like ours... Thanks for your offering @AlfonsoGomezJordanaManas, we are taking your advice. - DavidTaubmann

Ask for it...

Nowadays the best procedure (with just 1 step) was for us to develop an HTML file with the exact content for each of your templates (Email-Verification and Email-Change, including even the snippets %...% in the right place) and send them as attachment in the Troubleshoot form as mentioned by Alfonso in the comments of this question.

If you send the exact email HTML template file, you leave Google's people with no questions for spamming purposes other than quickly validating your HTML content and approve.
