This endpoint allows you to exchange the intermediate_session_token returned when the user successfully completes a Discovery authentication flow to create a new Organization and Member, then log the user in. If the user wants to log into an existing Organization, use the Exchange Intermediate Session endpoint instead.

​
Multi-factor authentication (MFA) and step-up requirements

Stytch requires that users verify their email address prior to creating a new Organization in order to prevent Account Takeover (ATO) attacks and phishing.
If the user authenticated using a method that does not provide real-time email verification (returning password auth, Github/Slack/Hubspot OAuth) this API will return member_authenticated: false and an intermediate_session_token to indicate that the user must perform additional authentication via one of the options listed in primary_required.allowed_auth_methods to finish logging in. If you specified an mfa_policy: REQUIRED_FOR_ALL in the request, this API will return member_authenticated: false, an intermediate_session_token, and mfa_required in order to indicate that you must prompt the user to enroll in MFA. Include the intermediate_session_token when calling the authenticate() method that the user needed to perform to verify their email or enroll in MFA. Once the user has completed the authentication requirements they were missing, they will be granted a full session_token and session_jwt and be successfully logged in. If the user logged in with a method that does provide real-time email verification (Email Magic Links, Email OTP, Google/Microsoft OAuth, initial email verification when creating a new password) this API will return member_authenticated: true and a session_jwt and session_token to indicate that the user has successfully logged in. The Member created by this endpoint will automatically be granted the stytch_admin Role. See the RBAC guide for more details on this Role.

Authorizations

​
Authorization
string
header
required

Basic authentication header of the form Basic <encoded-value>, where <encoded-value> is the base64-encoded string username:password.

Body

application/json

Request type

​
intermediate_session_token
string
required

The Intermediate Session Token. This token does not necessarily belong to a specific instance of a Member, but represents a bag of factors that may be converted to a member session. The token can be used with the OTP SMS Authenticate endpoint, TOTP Authenticate endpoint, or Recovery Codes Recover endpoint to complete an MFA flow and log in to the Organization. The token has a default expiry of 10 minutes. It can also be used with the Exchange Intermediate Session endpoint to join a specific Organization that allows the factors represented by the intermediate session token; or the Create Organization via Discovery endpoint to create a new Organization and Member. Intermediate Session Tokens have a default expiry of 10 minutes.

​
session_duration_minutes
integer<int32>

Set the session lifetime to be this many minutes from now. This will start a new session if one doesn't already exist, returning both an opaque session_token and session_jwt for this session. Remember that the session_jwt will have a fixed lifetime of five minutes regardless of the underlying session duration, and will need to be refreshed over time.

This value must be a minimum of 5 and a maximum of 527040 minutes (366 days).

If a session_token or session_jwt is provided then a successful authentication will continue to extend the session this many minutes.

If the session_duration_minutes parameter is not specified, a Stytch session will be created with a 60 minute duration. If you don't want to use the Stytch session product, you can ignore the session fields in the response.

​
session_custom_claims
object

Add a custom claims map to the Session being authenticated. Claims are only created if a Session is initialized by providing a value in session_duration_minutes.
