Email and SMS OTP sign-up and login flow
Hi all! Maybe a noob question 🙂 Trying to build a topic focused social media app with flutter, riverpod and appwrite. I am trying to stay away from email/password auth combo for now and only let users sign up and login via an OTP, through the createSession function. The sign up and verification works (both for email and phone) but when I try to log users in who already has an account, there's probably a conflict happening with the email and newly generated userId. What am I missing here? How can I check whether that email is already tied to an account? Should I create a document or is it possible to do this natively in the Auth/Account library? Thanks a lot in advance!!! //Can
TL;DR
Developers want to enable OTP sign-up and login using Flutter, Riverpod, and Appwrite for a social media app. The issue arises when attempting to log in users who already have accounts due to conflicts with emails and user IDs. To resolve this, developers can check if an email is already linked to an account within the Auth/Account library before proceeding with user authentication.
