Auth SDK: Support for IntiateAuth and OTP login methods

[karl-d]

HI Team,

We are looking to add OTP login (via EMAIL_OTP) to our flutter mobile application but the SDK does not currently support adding the calls to IntiateAuth, or have the ability to use the new OTP login methods.

We are not currently using the Authenticator component, just the SDK and a CDK deployed cognito user pool.

We are looking for some guidance on when these new features will be supported.

Regards,
Karl

Hi @karl-d, thank you for raising this issue. You can see an example here in our documentation about how to enable email OTP in your backend. To set up Email MFA in general with Amplify, please see this documentation.

Hi @ekjotmultani,

Sorry I was not clear enough, we are wanting to enable passwordless login to the application using the new Passwordless Login flow that is documented in the Cognito Docs

This differs from the setting up email MFA.

Hi @karl-d, unfortunately we do not support the passwordless flow yet, it is a tracked feature request however we don't have any timelines to share.
