Is this suited for github?

  • Yes, this is suited for github

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

The signIn.magicLink function allows us to pass a metadata record. This is really usefull because we can add parameters like locale (which then allows us to translate the email sent).

const { error } = await authClient.signIn.magicLink({
    email,
    metadata: { locale },
})

Unfortunatelly, the signIn.emailOtp does not have this metadata table.

const { error } = await authClient.signIn.emailOtp({
    email,
    otp,
})

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be nice if those api (as well as resetPassword maybe ?) all have the metadata field

Describe alternatives you've considered

I guess it's possible to parse the ctx to retrieve the locale from the url, but...

Additional context

No response

@ping-maxwell commented on GitHub (Mar 31, 2026):

Hey for now you should be able to do this via passing it through headers and then on the server you can get it off ctx.request im pretty sure
