Passwordless API

This page contains the APIs that are used to authenticate users without passwords using magic links and codes.

You also may find the Magic Links guide helpful.

Prior to version 1.41.0, magic links and codes were the only form of passwordless authentication supported by FusionAuth.

Therefore the user interface and API use the term passwordless, even though versions 1.41.0 and beyond support multiple kinds of passwordless authentication.

Use the following APIs to manage Passwordless authentication:
