Set time limits for magic links
March 11, 2025
Magic links are a great way to get people into their membership accounts quickly and easily, but they can be a risk if the link ends up in the wrong hands.
Now magic links are time-limited.
Key Enhancements
- 15 min time limit for magic link expiration
- 90 days limit for database deletion
- Rate limit for user generated magic link is 5-6
- User can request magic link for themselves till 90 days since they last logged in
- Secret token is encrypted so login information is secured
- It is backward compatible so old magic link will work as it is till user request new ones
Why it Matters:
The overall goal is to avoid security incidents related to the misuse of permanent magic links.
- Minimizing the window of time that an unauthorized user can use a link to gain access.
- Reduces the likelihood of link theft and replay attacks.
- Increases user trust by demonstrating a commitment to protecting their data.
- Enhances compliance with modern security standards and best practices.
If you haven't designed a certificate lately in JourneyCARE, you'll want to pop in and take a look. Some new enhancements have rolled out in the builder that we think you're going to like. One of the big changes is that you can now customize the size of your Certificate, so if you want people to be able to print out the Certificate onto standard US letter-size or A4, now you can do that. But you'll also find zippy responsiveness and new design elements that you can use like shapes and icons. Check it out and let us know what you think!
This may seem like a tiny little update, but if you've ever run into th is limitation, you'll understand that it's a big deal. You can now display and calculate tax rates to four digits. This provides greater accuracy in your calculations. The change will be seen across the entire platform, including invoices, receipts, check-outs, and exports. It impacts only new transactions, not purchases made before this update.
