Forgot Password

You can implement this simple method in your app and we will handle all the emails and password resets on our end.

Once you run this function, our system will send an email to that user if it exists. The email will be branded like your app: it will have your app's name, image logo and color so it will look cohesive. The sender's email is even masked with your app's name.

The user will then reset their password online and then will be instructed that they can login into your app.

Example

void UMyObject::ResetUserPassword(const FString& Email)
{
    // Get the GameFuse Manager subsystem
    UGameFuseManager* GameFuseManager = GetGameInstance()->GetSubsystem<UGameFuseManager>();

    // Create a callback for the password reset operation
    FGFApiCallback CompletionCallback;
    CompletionCallback.AddLambda([this](const FGFAPIResponse& Response)
    {
        if(Response.bSuccess)
        {
            UE_LOG(LogTemp, Display, TEXT("Password reset email sent successfully"));
            UE_LOG(LogTemp, Display, TEXT("Response: %s"), *Response.ResponseStr);
        }
        else
        {
            UE_LOG(LogTemp, Error, TEXT("Failed to send password reset email"));
            UE_LOG(LogTemp, Error, TEXT("Response: %s"), *Response.ResponseStr);
        }
    });

    // Send password reset email
    GameFuseManager->SendPasswordResetEmail(Email, CompletionCallback);
}
