Which UI do you use?

Custom UI

Pre built UI

Manually changing email verification status

Mark email as verified

To manually mark an email as verified, you need to first create an email verification token for the user and then use the token to verify the user's email.

NodeJS

Important

For other backend frameworks, you can follow our guide on how to spin up a separate server configured with the SuperTokens backend SDK to authenticate requests and issue session tokens.

GoLang

import EmailVerification from "supertokens-node/recipe/emailverification";

async function manuallyVerifyEmail(userId: string) {
    try {
        // Create an email verification token for the user
        const tokenRes = await EmailVerification.createEmailVerificationToken(userId);

        // If the token creation is successful, use the token to verify the user's email
        if (tokenRes.status === "OK") {
            await EmailVerification.verifyEmailUsingToken(tokenRes.token);
        }
    } catch (err) {
        console.error(err);
    }
}

Python

import (
    "github.com/supertokens/supertokens-golang/recipe/emailverification"
)

func main() {
    userID := "..."
    // Create an email verification token for the user
    tokenRes, err := emailverification.CreateEmailVerificationToken(userID, nil)
    if err != nil {
        // handle error
    }

    // If the token creation is successful, use the token to verify the user's email
    if tokenRes.OK != nil {
        _, err := emailverification.VerifyEmailUsingToken(tokenRes.OK.Token)
        if err != nil {
            // handle error
        }
    }
}

            verify_email_using_token(token_res.token)
    except Exception as e:
        print(e)

Multi Tenancy

For a multi tenant setup, you need not give a tenant ID to the function calls above since a user ID and their email verification status is unique on an app level (and not a tenant level).

Mark email as unverified

To manually mark an email as unverified, you need to first retrieve the user's email address and then update their email verification status in the database.

NodeJS

Important

For other backend frameworks, you can follow our guide on how to spin up a separate server configured with the SuperTokens backend SDK to authenticate requests and issue session tokens.

GoLang

import EmailVerification from "supertokens-node/recipe/emailverification";

async function manuallyUnverifyEmail(userId: string) {
    try {
        // Set email verification status to false
        await EmailVerification.unverifyEmail(userId);
    } catch (err) {
        console.error(err);
    }
}

Python

import (
    "github.com/supertokens/supertokens-golang/recipe/emailverification"
)

func main() {
    userID := "..."
    // Set email verification status to false
    _, err := emailverification.UnverifyEmail(userID, nil)
    if err != nil {
        // handle error
    }
