In my Flutter app, I used the appwrite account.createRecovery method.

As I've earlier implemented same logic using firebase Auth, the recovery email is to be sent to user registered email address with the reset link that when tapped/opened will direct the user to a page provided by firebase and then when new password is set, it's then redirect the user back to my app.

Now, when I used the account createRecovery method, I supplied the user email and an empty string for the url.

Now email is sent to my user email inbox. I tried this more than twice.

Also, I want to ask, do you expect all appwrite user who use appwrite as BaaS to also create a website whose they use as the url in the createRecovery method and implement all the logics to fetch the codes from the url paths and then redirect the user back into the app after password change?

This is kinda urgent.

Thanks.

TL;DR
Developers are discussing password reset and recovery options. One developer is looking for support on handling password recovery. Another developer suggests using https://www.authui.site/ for handling this. The developer mentions they used appwrite's account.createRecovery method but the recovery email is not being sent to the user account. They are unsure if they need to create a website to use as the URL in the createRecovery method. Overall, support and guidance are being requested for implementing password recovery effectively.

However, why is the recovery email not sent to the user account?

If the code is correct, i think it will be sent?

Also, if you don't want to handle it yourself, you can use: https://www.authui.site/

I checked this but can't find info on whether it handles password reset as that's what I want to settle.
