Sign-up new end user by sending an OTP code via email

Initiate a sign-up process by sending a One-Time Password (OTP) to a new end user. Descope will generate and deliver the OTP code to the email address specified. Sending multiple OTP codes (for example, when an end user tries to sign-up a second or third time) will invalidate any OTP code that has already been sent.

This endpoint will return an empty response object when it completes successfully. The endpoint will return a failure code if the email address is already registered.

Next Steps

Verify the OTP code using the Verify OTP Code endpoint to complete the user sign-up process. After successfully verifying OTP code the end user will be signed-in.
