Overview

This node interacts with the Appwrite API to update the Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) status for a user. It is useful in scenarios where an administrator or system needs to enable or disable MFA for security purposes on a specific user account. For example, it can be used to enforce MFA for users accessing sensitive data or to disable MFA temporarily for troubleshooting.

Use Case Examples

  1. Enable MFA for a user by providing their User ID and setting MFA Enabled to true.
  2. Disable MFA for a user by providing their User ID and setting MFA Enabled to false.

Properties

Name Meaning
User ID The unique identifier of the user whose MFA status is to be updated.
MFA Enabled A boolean flag indicating whether to enable (true) or disable (false) Multi-Factor Authentication for the user.

Output

JSON

  • userId - The ID of the user whose MFA status was updated.
  • mfaEnabled - The updated MFA enabled status of the user (true or false).

Dependencies

  • Appwrite API key credential for authentication

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the User ID provided is valid and exists in the Appwrite system to avoid errors.
  • Verify that the API key credential has sufficient permissions to update user MFA settings.
  • Common error messages may include authentication failures or invalid user ID errors; resolving these involves checking credentials and input values.
