Research direction

Start with the updateUser({ email }) flow described in the reproduction steps and trace how the disabled Email Auth Provider setting is handled after phone OTP verification. Reproduce the issue with the listed Phone and Email Auth Provider setup; done means updating the email does not send a confirmation email when confirmation is disabled.

Description

bug

I have a sign-up/sign-in flow with SMS OTP, and after signup the user can add their email as well.
I have disabled Email confirmation in the Email Auth Provider, but as soon as i call updateUser with the email, i receive an email to confirm this.

await supabase.auth.updateUser({ email: email });

To Reproduce

  1. Setup Phone Auth provider with Twilio
  2. Email Auth Provider with confirmation disabled
  3. Call await supabase.auth.signInWithOtp({ phone: phone })
  4. Call await supabase.auth.verifyOtp({ phone: phone, token: verificationCode, type: 'sms' }) with received auth code
  5. Call await supabase.auth.updateUser({ email: email }); with your email.
  6. See that you receive email about confirming your email address, even though it is set as disabled.
