Configuring Magic Link Authenticator

This section provides the instructions to configure Magic Link Authenticator in WSO2 Identity Server (WSO2 IS). The Magic Link Authentication is a password-less authentication implemented by sending an embedded token via a link in email.

Enabling configurations on WSO2 IS

Follow the steps below to configure WSO2 IS to send email once the Magic Link Authenticator is enabled.

1. Shut down the server if it is running.

2. Add the following properties to the deployment.toml file in the IS_HOME/repository/conf folder to configure the email server.

        [output_adapter.email]
        from_address= "[e-mail]"
        username= "wso2iamtest"
        password= "Wso2@iam70"
        hostname= "smtp.gmail.com"
        port= 587
        enable_start_tls= true
        enable_authentication= true
   

3. Add the following configurations to the <IS_HOME>/repository/conf/identity/application-authentication.xml file under the section.

    <AuthenticatorConfig name="MagicLinkAuthenticator" enabled="true">     
       <Parameter name="ExpiryTime">300</Parameter>
    </AuthenticatorConfig>
   

   Hint : Edit the file <IS_HOME>/repository/resources/conf/templates/repository/conf/identity/application-authentication.xml.j2

4. Create the magic_link_notification.jsp file by copying the code in this file and add the file inside the <IS_HOME>/repository/deployment/server/webapps/authenticationendpoint

5. Add the following configurations inside <IS_HOME>/repository/deployment/server/webapps/authenticationendpoint/WEB-INF/web.xml

        <servlet>
           <servlet-name>magic_link_notification.do</servlet-name>
           <jsp-file>/magic_link_notification.jsp</jsp-file>
