function getAuth().generatePasswordResetLink(...) does not display a reset password screen on the emulator #8185

Hey @G-Cyrille, thanks for the detailed report! Let me know if I may have misunderstood, but from what I can gather, the issue here is that the emulator displays a JSON response instead of a webpage for resetting passwords. Currently, for resetting passwords on the Auth emulator, you will need to input the new password using the provided link in the JSON response, such as: Having JSON responses instead of UI widgets makes it easier to perform automated tests without the use of headless browsers, fake DOM API, etc. to interact with a web page. Though I do see how matching production behavior of displaying a webpage would be useful as it would imitate the production behavior of Auth. For now, I’ll mark this as a feature request for supporting UI widgets when resetting passwords. |

Yes, you understand perfectly ! I would add that having some sort of mechanism to customize Action URL in the emulator would be amazing ! Action URL (%LINK% value) customizaton in the production environment like:
The default value would be |

On step 7, the emulator should display the default "reset password screen".

NB : it works on production environment, it is a emulator-only issue.
