Is it possible to allow a user to have many email addresses ?

[simo.adonis]

Hi,

Our complete system is designed in a way to allow the same person to have one account with more than one email address.

We have migrate to fusion auth recently I was wondering if there is a way to enable the same on Fusion Auth since we did a migration of existing user to our instance.
Till now we have build a kind of email feredation on our app before calling the login API. So if a user try to login with one he secondary email we will get his main email based on that information and use the primary email to perform the login operation.

I don't think it's a really proper way of doing this. This is why i want to know if there is a better way to handle it.

Thanks.

@simo-adonis I'm not sure I understand the problem. Can you lay it out for me step by step, what you'd like to have happen (if user has user1@example.com and user2@example.com email addresses, what happens? Do you want support just logging in or forgot password, etc)?

Hi @dan
Your example is the perfect example, a user may have user1@example.com and user2@example.com as his email addresses, but i don't know how to make that work with fusion auth.

I also want to support fogot password flow.

@simo-adonis This is not possible with FusionAuth currently.
