In Authentication recovery operation-
In 'Forgot password with email factor' flow:
case 1:
when I continue the flow in browser (clinking resent link in email), I see transaction skipped to the RESET_PASSWORD state.
case 2:
But, when I call 'verify token' (with token taken from the email) from postman, I get state token for RECOVERY state.
I am expecting a state token for RESET_PASSWORD in case 2 also (skipping RECOVERY state as case 1) Please suggest.
