Get Recovery Flow

GET 
/self-service/recovery/flows

This endpoint returns a recovery flow's context with, for example, error details and other information.

Browser flows expect the anti-CSRF cookie to be included in the request's HTTP Cookie Header. For AJAX requests you must ensure that cookies are included in the request or requests will fail.

If you use the browser-flow for server-side apps, the services need to run on a common top-level-domain and you need to forward the incoming HTTP Cookie header to this endpoint:

pseudo-code example
router.get('/recovery', async function (req, res) {
const flow = await client.getRecoveryFlow(req.header('Cookie'), req.query['flow'])

res.render('recovery', flow)
})
