Is there any way to do email confirmation for Firebase user creation and/or password reset?

Question

Question says it all. In Firebase, how do I confirm email when a user creates an account, or, for that matter, do password reset via email.

I could ask more broadly:

Answer 1

What I did to work around this was use Zapier which has a built in API for firebase. It checks a location for added child elements. Then it takes the mail address and a verification url from the data of new nodes and sends them forwards. The url points back to my angular app, which sets the user email as verified.

As I host my app files in firebase, I don't need have to take care of any servers or processes doing polling in the background.

There is a delay, but as I don't block users before verifying mails it's ok. Zapier has a free tier and since I don't have much traffic it's a decent workaround for time being.
