|---|---|
All | Do everything below |
Signup | Send the verification code during sign-up |
Login | Send the code for sign-in with a verification code |
Forget Password | Send the reset code or link on the forgot-password page. For reset links, see Password reset link |
Reset Password | Send the code when the user changes the password |
