express-validator email normalization - node.js

I am using express-validator 6.9.2 for my Nodejs project. But when I used normalizeEmail() in my auth controller one of my test email "t.test#gmail.com" is stored in dB as "ttest#gmail.com".
When I tried to log in to my app using t.test#gmail.com and ttest#gmail.com I was able to log in successfully. But when trying to create a new user with the email ttest#gmail.com. It shows an error email already exists. How can I normalize my email and store as "t.test#gmail.com" in dB?

In the options that you pass your validator you need to set property gmail_remove_dots to false. Here is the documentation.
check('email').normalizeEmail({gmail_remove_dots:false})

Google Form API - unable to retrieve a respondent email

I am using Google Form API to create a sample project to create, update & get responses to a form.
I am using the following documentation for reference and understanding:
https://developers.google.com/forms/api/reference/rest/v1/forms.responses
It mentions that a single response body (using response ID) includes the respondent email, but each time I trigger the API, the respondent email is undefined and hence does not get returned in the response body.
What am I doing wrong?
Please note I am not using the Apps Script. I am using the API in a node.js project.
Thank you

How to transfer data from page to another in node js

Hello there i am learning node.js and got stuck in a scenario.The flow is that in website user register himself and after successfully registering i will be sending him to route named create_profile which in is post request and also i want to send userId to create_profile route.In case if user close the website then if he agains open it and login then if profile is incomplete then i will be taking his userId and send to create_profile route.And after that to home page.What i was thinking to store session for user authentication in create profile page and login.This is because if login there can be tow cases : If user has successfully completed his profile then take him to home and store a global session there and second case it to take him to create profile as its incomplete then after successfully creating take him to home store global session for user authentication.But my confusion is to how to pass userId from login to create profile which is post request.Do i need to make temp session ? Please solve my issue i am confused how to solve this .
You can create a "profile_completed" coloumn in DB and set it as "false" (default), update it to "true" if user has completed the profile. While user login check if his profile is updated ,if yes send him to home else ask him to update.
You can pass user I'd to create_profile via request or get it from session storage you saved earlier

Microsoft / Botbuilder for NodeJS: Bind URL Parameters to bot session

SDK
Homepage: https://github.com/Microsoft/BotBuilder
SDK Platform: Node.js
SDK Version: 3.14.0
Issue Description
Hi, I searched for this for a long time now but I haven't found an answer.
I was wondering if there is a way to bind some URL parameters to the User's Bot Session.
For example, if for a specific chat dialog, I set my Endpoint URL to:
http://localhost:3978/api/messages?pronuntiation=british
is there a way to get that url parameter named "pronuntiation" down in the session object like...
bot.dialog("/", function(session){
var desiredPronuntiation = session.someUrlParameters.pronuntiation;
if( desiredPronuntiation == "british"){
///blah
}
});
I think it is possible in C# SDK but I was trying to do this in NodeJS...
I already debugged the proces from the server.post('/api/messages', connector.listen()) down to the ChatConnector.verifyBotFramework() where at the end I found it calls _this.dispatch(req.body, res, next); (ChatbotConnector.js on line 149) passing only the post body but not the request object itself...
So at a first glance I think this is not possible, I just wanted to be sure that I didn't miss anything...
Thanks,
Luis
As far as I know, this isn't supported by the Bot Framework, however I don't see why you need to do it this way. This is something you want to store in the state, for example the userData. You can read more here about managing state in the Bot Framework.
If you want to pass user data to the bot, it depends on the channel. For example Facebook and Webchat allow you to pass data direct to the bot, without user input.

Is there a way to send the verification email with the Firebase Admin SDK from my Node.js server?

Is there a way to send the email verification email from my server ?
This is how it's done on the client:
authData.sendEmailVerification().then(function() {
Is there a way to do it on the server ?

To my surprise there currently is no option to send verification email from within the Admin SDK. I'd recommend you file a feature request.
What you can do from the Admin SDK is update a user profile to mark their email as verified. This allows you to take control of the entire verification flow if you want to, finishing with a call to admin.auth().updateUser(...) (on Node.js, see the link for other supported languages).
I just came across the same problem as you. There is a function to generate the verification link using user's email address.
I used this function on an array of email addresses, then load the result to my mail automation API to send mails out. This function is weirdly not documented:
admin.auth().generateEmailVerificationLink([EMAIL_ADDRESS])
You can use :
axios.post('https://identitytoolkit.googleapis.com/v1/accounts:sendOobCode?key=[API_KEY]',
{ requestType: 'VERIFY_EMAIL', idToken: response.data.idToken }
)
