Log in with email OTP codes

Prerequisite: A Momentic-provisioned inbox (@usemomentic.com or @gomomentic.com). Request one.

Fetch the code

Add a JavaScript step that reads the latest email, parses the code, and saves it to the environment.

const msg = await email.fetchLatest({
  inbox: "otp+test",
  afterDate: new Date(Date.now() - 60_000),
  timeout: 30_000,
});

const [code] = msg.text.match(/\b\d{6}\b/) ?? [];
if (!code) throw new Error("No OTP code found in email");
setVariable("OTP_CODE", code);

Then add a Type step with value {{ env.OTP_CODE }} targeting the OTP input.

Always pass afterDate to avoid matching a stale code from a previous run.

This script polls for up to 30 seconds, well within the JavaScript step’s 90-second default timeout. For longer polls, raise the step’s Timeout field (cloud runs cap the timeout at 60s; the CLI supports up to 10 minutes).
