I want user to be automatically authenticated (temporarily) on Firebase just by sending Email then be redirected to a welcome page asking to complete the auth process by following a link received by email.
The first part is ok, I can authenticate by just inserting email and generating a random password like the following (Vuex store action):
this.$store.dispatch('userSignUp', { email: this.email, password: this.generatePassword })
which is called by component method button v-on:click="userSignUp
Vuex action is like :
userSignUp ({commit}, payload) {
commit('setLoading', true)
firebase.auth().createUserWithEmailAndPassword(payload.email, payload.password)
.then(firebaseUser => {
commit('setUser', firebaseUser)
commit('setLoading', false)
commit('setError', null)
router.push('/welcome')
})
.catch(error => {
commit('setError', error.message)
commit('setLoading', false)
})
}
So far so good, the user put the email, an helper function this.generatePassword
generate a random password and the user is logged in and created on firebase.
Now this user is logged in, is on a welcome page, but it doesn't know his own random password (because I don't want to).
I want this to be one shot login and if the user want to come back, has to follow the link sent by email by Firebase.
There is a firebase function [sendPasswordResetEmail][1]
, which seems right for the case but I connot find the way to make it working.
I did Vuex action like before :
export const actions = {
sendPasswordReset ({commit}, payload) {
commit('setLoading', true)
firebase.auth().sendPasswordResetEmail(payload.email)
.then(firebaseUser => {
commit('setUser', firebaseUser)
commit('setLoading', false)
commit('setError', null)
router.push('/welcome')
})
.catch(error => {
commit('setError', error.message)
commit('setLoading', false)
router.push('/error')
})
},
...
which is called by component method button v-on:click="userSignUp
methods: {
userSignUp () {
this.$store.dispatch('userSignUp', { email: this.email, password: this.generatePassword })
this.$store.dispatch('sendPasswordReset', { email: this.email })
}
},
I only get response code
{
"error": {
"errors": [
{
"domain": "global",
"reason": "invalid",
"message": "EMAIL_NOT_FOUND"
}
],
"code": 400,
"message": "EMAIL_NOT_FOUND"
}
}
while the Request Payload seems ok anyway :
{requestType: "PASSWORD_RESET", email: "[email protected]"}
email
:
"[email protected]"
requestType
:
"PASSWORD_RESET"
Any idea ?
