Allow users to change their email

caution

SuperTokens does not provide the UI for users to update their email, you will need to create the UI and setup a route on your backend to have this functionality.

In this section we will go over how you can create a route on your backend which can update a user's email. Calling this route will check if the new email is valid and not already in use and proceed to update the user's account with the new email. There are two types of flows here:

Flow 1: Update email without verifying the new email.#

In this flow a user is allowed to update their accounts email without verifying the new email id.

Step 1: Creating the `/change-email` route#

You will need to create a route on your backend which is protected by the session verification middleware, this will ensure that only a authenticated user can access the protected route.

Step 2: Validate the new email and update the account#

Validate the input email.
Check that the account you are trying to update is not social account.
Update the account with the input email.

Validate the input email
Check that the user's account is not a social account.
Check if the input email is associated with an account.
Check if the input email is already verified.

If the email is verified, update the account with the new email.
