Send verify email

Use this action to request a verification link for a user’s email address. WeWeb generates a one‑time token and a ready‑to‑use verification URL. The sending of the email happens in the event trigger: On email verification requested →

Configuration

Display Key	Example Input	Description
Email	"user@example.com"	The user’s email address that should receive the verification link.
Redirect Page Optional	Signed‑in page	Page to open after successful verification (provider dependent).

Sending the verification link to the user

For most practical use cases, you will need to send the generated verification link to the user via email, and doing so requires using its related Event Trigger.

Here's what happens when this action runs:

1. WeWeb generates a token and builds the verification link URL using your redirect selection
2. In the Data & API tab, the event trigger On email verification requested is fired with the data { user, token, url }
3. In the trigger, you usually deliver the link with WeWeb's built-in backend Send Email action
