How to implement invite-only registration flow with better-auth?
Hello, I'm looking for some help on how to implement this use-case.
Here is the general user creation/registration flow I want to implement:
I've tried using magic links, but I got stuck on how to then add a credentials account to the user.
Magic link also doesn't handle the user's role, but I can manage with setting it up later.
Here is another alternative I've considered, and I'd appreciate some feedback on whether it should work and if it's a good way to do that.
Use the admin API to add users and then send them a "forgot password" link with a custom message. This will then redirect them to reset the password.
Any thoughts?
Here is the general user creation/registration flow I want to implement:
1. Existing admin user adds a new user by entering their email (and possibly name and role).
2. The new user receives email with a welcome message and a link (time limited) to complete account setup.
3. After clicking the link, the user is redirected to a page where they can enter a password and/or link their social account.
4. User is redirected to the app's main page.
5. Future logins for the user will be done using their password or social account.
