Create Custom Enrollment Tickets

If you want to customize and manage your users' Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) enrollments, you can use Custom Enrollment Tickets. Auth0's Custom Enrollment Tickets generate a single-use link to direct your users to enroll in MFA with the factor(s) you specify.

Use cases

Use Custom Enrollment Tickets for:

  • Onboarding new users

  • Configuring user settings

  • Specifying factors you want customers to choose during enrollment

  • Allowing users to enroll more than one factor

Configure Custom Enrollment Tickets

Make a post call to Management API's /guardian/post_ticket endpoint.


curl --request POST \
  --url 'https://{yourDomain}/api/v2/guardian/post-ticket' \
  --header 'authorization: Bearer {yourMgmtApiAccessToken}' \
  --header 'content-type: application/json' \
  --data '{ 
 "user_id": "string",
 "email": "user@exampleco.com",
 "send_email": "true",
 "email_locale": "string",
 "factor": "oob",
 "allow_multiple_enrollments": "true"
 }'

Parameter Required Description
allow_multiple_enrollments Optional Allows a previously enrolled user to enroll with additional factors, excluding email.
factor Optional Specifies which factor the user must enroll with, excluding email. Used with allow_multiple_enrollments, can specify more than one factor for enrollment.

Management API returns an enrollment ticket containing a ticket_id and a ticket_url. The ticket_id is for internal use. Deliver the ticket_url to the user with the send_email parameter to kick off the enrollment process. Tickets expire after 5 days and are single-use. A user who receives a ticket will only be able to enroll once.

Sample response:

{
  "ticket_id": "gten_8b2f5e90d2c848dc9230d34f",
  "ticket_url": "https://guardianadnrdoifcmtest0.eu.auth0.com/guardian/enroll?ticket=gten_8b2f5e90d2c848dc9230d34f"

Custom Enrollment Tickets with Classic Login

If you are using the Classic Login experience and need to customize how the page looks when the user navigates to the ticket_url, you can edit the MFA page.

  1. Navigate to Dashboard > Branding > Universal Login > Advanced options > Multi-factor Authentication.

  2. If Customize MFA Page is not selected, toggle this option on.

  3. Update the ticket variable. Example:

{% if ticket %}
<h4 class="message">Welcome, {{ userData.email }}, enroll your device below</h4>
{% else %}
<h4 class="message">Welcome back, {{ userData.email }}, authenticate below</h4>
{% endif %}
