Email Send exception while calling the /registration API

apeksha.barhanpur — Invalid Date

Hi,

We are calling the /api/user/registration API to create and register a new user. Our requirement is that we want to send an email verification first to the user, only after the user clicks on the link and verifies the email then we would like the user to be verified in FusioanAuth.

Based on the API documentation it states that when we make a request to this API and if the "skipVerification" is set to default with is "false" it should send an email verification to the newly created user. And then the user should get an email.

Though the call is successful we are getting the following error within the event logs while sending the email.

Async Email Send exception occurred.

Template Id: 0e107c44-a3de-4607-b51c-cd797463ce3a
Template Name: [FusionAuth Default] Email Verification
Tenant Id: 07448f27-ca36-9612-8b9a-bce2e7137351
Addressed to: apekshagb@gmail.com

Cause:
javax.mail.MessagingException : Message: Could not connect to SMTP host: 127.0.0.1, port: 1025

I did try to use an external SMTP server as mailcatcher but that didn't work either. Are we missing any configuration or we need to call a different API?

Regards
Apeksha

We have the exact same issue. If this was solved (hopefully) could you please provide a brief description on the fix?
Thanks!

Is it possible to create a user without a password?

As of 1.59.0 this is possible but it is slightly unintuitive how to do it. It’s entirely driven by the form being used. Here's how to do it:

create a new user admin form: https://fusionauth.io/docs/lifecycle/manage-users/admin-forms make sure you omit the 'password' field from the form assign the form to your tenant create a new user

You can also create a user directly via the API with no password.
