authentication

i am new to appwrite and i am using flutter from a long time now so i wanted to do authentication and on first page uses have to enter FullName and email and then i will send them magicurl on their email and when they are verified then they will be routed to a page when they sets username and password. there is not much stuff about it online idk what to do anymore

Using magic URL authentication creates an account and session. Then, you can use the update password API to set a password

can you please elaborate

Which part? What do you need clarification on?

i have created this in my auth_api -

Future<Token> createmagic( { required String email } ) async { try { final user = await account.createMagicURLSession( userId: ID.unique(), email: email); return user; } finally { notifyListeners(); } }

and i am calling it on the 'send link' button of my sign up page

what after that? do i have to use updatemaggicurlsession?

Well, supposedly appwrite handles that: https://dev.to/appwrite/magic-url-authentication-with-flutter-appwrite-349g But in my experience didn't worked

No it doesn't work. We need to update the docs

You need to provide a url that will be in the email sent to the user. The link should send the user back to your app so you can finish the flow with the update call.

And why not updating instead appwrite? 😅

The problem is getting the session in the app requires extra steps
