Is Verification Code Valid is used on the Kuika platform to check the validity of a verification code sent to a user. The accuracy of the code entered by the user and whether its validity period has expired can be verified. It plays a critical role in security processes such as two-factor authentication (2FA).
This action typically works in conjunction with the Send Verification Code action. Send Verification Code is used to send a verification code to the user via SMS, email, or a similar channel. After generating and sending a unique and time-limited verification code to the user, the user enters this code into the relevant field in the application.
Once the user enters the code, Is Verification Code Valid is triggered and performs the following checks:
Together, these two actions provide a secure verification process. First, the verification code is sent (Send Verification Code), then the code entered by the user is verified and the process is completed (Is Verification Code Valid). This structure is used as a basic component in applications that want to verify user identity and increase account security.
