magic link with an external auth provider
Next.jsI'm trying to set up magic link auth in a multi-tier system where the backend doesn't know anything about better-auth or its database. The backend needs to authenticate users. I'm using Cognito as the auth provider, so the backend can validate access tokens with Cognito.
I can use cognito's paswordless auth to establish Cognito user and generate access tokens. I can see I can define magic-link's
I can do all the verification and build user models myself, but then what's the proper way to tell better-auth "here is the current authenticated user?"
Or how to override the token verification in magic-link plugin?
