Getting Started with Email Magic Links
Before integrating Email Magic Links into your application with Stytch, there are a few basic configuration steps in the Stytch Dashboard:
Add or update Redirect URLs
In the Redirect URLs section of the Stytch Dashboard make any updates needed to your default Redirect URLs.
By default, all new projects have redirect URLs set to http://localhost:3000/authenticate for the Test environment in the Dashboard. If you want to use a different port, update the dashboard to specify new default Redirect URLs for:
- Sign-up and Login Redirect URL (for organization-specific login)
- Discovery Redirect URL (for discovery authentication)
2(Optional) Create an Organization
You can get started with the Discovery sign-up or login flow without this step, so feel free to skip to Step 3!
If you want to start with an example of logging into an existing Organization, you can do so by creating an Organization through the Stytch dashboard or CreateOrganization API.
If you will be testing using a corporate email, you can allow Just In Time (JIT) Provisioning to the Organization via email domain by including your domain in the email_allowed_domains array and setting email_jit_provisioning to RESTRICTED.
{
"organization_id": "organization-test-07971b06-ac8b-4cdb-9c15-63b17e653931",
...
"email_allowed_domains": ["stytch.com"],
"email_jit_provisioning": "RESTRICTED"
}JIT Provisioning by email domain is restricted for common, free email providers (e.g. google.com) so if you don’t have a corporate email, you can alternatively create a Member in your new Organization with the email you will use to login.
You can create a Member in the dashboard by navigating to the Organization and clicking “Create new member” or by calling the CreateMember API.
3Start integrating
Follow one of the below guides to get an end-to-end Email Magic Links flow up and running.
If you’re not sure what integration approach you want to take long-term, that’s fine!
If you want to get up and running with as little code as possible, check out the pre-built UI integration guides. If you want to get a sense for how much fine-grained control you can have with Stytch, choose between the backend and headless frontend integration guides depending on where in the stack you feel most comfortable.
