Retrieve a User by Email Verification Id api NOT WORKING

arihantverma52

Does this API work for anyone? It's giving me a 404 when I try to use it.
GET /api/user?verificationId={verificationId}

Thanks

This endpoint returns a 404 for an invalid or expired verificationId. It is also the case that you can only use a verificationId once for verification before it becomes stale.

What does this mean for your workflow? In my case, I was trying to verify a user's registration in the same request cycle as verifying their email. To do this, I needed to fetch the user response to get the user ID to verify the registration. Naturally, I was doing this after posting the email verification -- the result being said 404.

So, in terms of workflow, if you need to look up a user by verificationId, be sure to do it before you actually use the ID for verification.

Let me know if I got any of this wrong @arihantverma52

Please share your entire request, the version of FusionAuth, any debug logs, and your FusionAuth configuration. Otherwise it is difficult to provide you any assistance.
