Change email content
To change the content of the default email templates, you can override the getContent
function in the emailDelivery
object. It allows you to return an object that has the following properties:
body
: This is the email's body. This can be HTML or just text as well.isHtml
: If the body is HTML, then this should betrue
.subject
: This is the subject of the email to send.toEmail
: The email will be sent to this email.
Other information like which email ID to send from is specified in the smtpSettings
object.

For other backend frameworks, you can follow our guide on how to spin up a separate server configured with the SuperTokens backend SDK to authenticate requests and issue session tokens.
