BETTER-AUTH. UI
Mutations

useGenerateBackupCodes

Replace the existing backup codes.

The new codes are returned once. Keep them in component state and let the user copy them — they are never returned again.

Usage

import {
  type TwoFactorAuthClient,
  useAuth,
  useGenerateBackupCodes
} from "@better-auth-ui/react"

const { authClient } = useAuth()
const { mutate: generateBackupCodes } = useGenerateBackupCodes(
  authClient as TwoFactorAuthClient
)

generateBackupCodes({ password: "current-password" })

useGenerateBackupCodes requires the Better Auth twoFactor plugin. Cast authClient to TwoFactorAuthClient so TypeScript picks up the plugin-extended method signature.

Options factory

import { generateBackupCodesOptions } from "@better-auth-ui/react"
import { useMutation } from "@tanstack/react-query"

const { mutate } = useMutation(generateBackupCodesOptions(authClient))
