Magic Auth

Magic Auth is a passwordless authentication method that allows users to sign in or sign up via a unique, six digit one-time-use code sent to their email inbox. To verify the code, authenticate the user with Magic Auth.

const magicAuth = {
  object: 'magic_auth',
  id: 'magic_auth_01E4ZCR3C56J083X43JQXF3JK5',
  userId: 'user_01HWWYEH2NPT48X82ZT23K5AX4',
  email: 'marcelina.davis@example.com',
  expiresAt: '2021-07-01T19:07:33.155Z',
  code: '123456',
  createdAt: '2021-06-25T19:07:33.155Z',
