Part of https://github.com/element-hq/synapse/issues/18118 ## What the spec says Since Matrix v1.13 (introduced by [MSC4178](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/4178)), the `400` response of [`POST /_matrix/client/v3/account/3pid/email/requestToken`](https://spec.matrix.org/v1.19/client-server-api/#post_matrixclientv3account3pidemailrequesttoken) lists, among the "Error codes that can be returned": > - `M_THREEPID_MEDIUM_NOT_SUPPORTED`: The homeserver does not support adding email addresses. > - `M_INVALID_PARAM`: The email address given was not valid. and [`POST /_matrix/client/v3/account/3pid/msisdn/requestToken`](https://spec.matrix.org/v1.19/client-server-api/#post_matrixclientv3account3pidmsisdnrequesttoken) likewise: > - `M_THREEPID_MEDIUM_NOT_SUPPORTED`: The homeserver does not support adding phone numbers. > - `M_INVALID_PARAM`: The phone number given was not valid. ## What was missing Synapse implemented the headline case (unsupported medium), but around it: - A malformed email address or country code was reported with the generic `M_BAD_JSON` instead of `M_INVALID_PARAM`. The email validator deliberately kept `M_BAD_JSON` "to ensure backward compatibility of HTTP error codes" (matrix-org/synapse#13687, 2022) — that predates Matrix v1.13, which now lists `M_INVALID_PARAM` for this case. - On the msisdn variant, the unsupported-medium check ran after the denied/in-use checks, so a request wrong in two ways reported the other fault; the email variant checks it first. ## What this PR changes - Malformed email addresses and country codes on `/account/3pid/{email,msisdn}/requestToken` are reported with `M_INVALID_PARAM`. Both flow through the existing errcode translation as `value_error`: the email validator raises a plain `ValueError`, and the country-code constraint (`ISO3166_1_Alpha_2`) declares its own error via pydantic-core's `custom_error_schema`. - On the msisdn variant the unsupported-medium check now runs before the denied/in-use checks, as on the email variant. - The country-code type is renamed from `ISO3116_1_Alpha_2` to `ISO3166_1_Alpha_2` (typo in the standard's number). [`/account/password/email/requestToken`](https://spec.matrix.org/v1.19/client-server-api/#post_matrixclientv3accountpasswordemailrequesttoken) (not covered by the v1.13 change) shares the email request body model, so a malformed email there is now also reported with `M_INVALID_PARAM` instead of `M_BAD_JSON`. Its `400` response is described as "the request was invalid" and only names `M_SERVER_NOT_TRUSTED` explicitly ("can be returned if…") rather than restricting the server to a fixed list, and `M_INVALID_PARAM` is the spec's generic code for "A parameter that was specified has the wrong value" ([other error codes](https://spec.matrix.org/v1.19/client-server-api/#other-error-codes)).

You can directly run and manage the source code in this repository, available under an AGPL license (or alternatively under a commercial license from Element). There is no support provided by Element unless you have a subscription from Element. 🚀 Getting started ================== This component is developed and maintained by `Element <https://element.io>`_. It gets shipped as part of the **Element Server Suite (ESS)** which provides the official means of deployment. ESS is a Matrix distribution from Element with focus on quality and ease of use. It ships a full Matrix stack tailored to the respective use case. There are three editions of ESS: - `ESS Community <https://github.com/element-hq/ess-helm>`_ - the free Matrix distribution from Element tailored to small-/mid-scale, non-commercial community use cases - `ESS Pro <https://element.io/server-suite>`_ - the commercial Matrix distribution from Element for professional use - `ESS TI-M <https://element.io/server-suite/ti-messenger>`_ - a special version of ESS Pro focused on the requirements of TI-Messenger Pro and ePA as specified by the German National Digital Health Agency Gematik 🛠️ Standalone installation and configuration ============================================ The Synapse documentation describes `options for installing Synapse standalone <https://element-hq.github.io/synapse/latest/setup/installation.html>`_. See below for more useful documentation links. - `Synapse configuration options <https://element-hq.github.io/synapse/latest/usage/configuration/config_documentation.html>`_ - `Synapse configuration for federation <https://element-hq.github.io/synapse/latest/federate.html>`_ - `Using a reverse proxy with Synapse <https://element-hq.github.io/synapse/latest/reverse_proxy.html>`_ - `Upgrading Synapse <https://element-hq.github.io/synapse/develop/upgrade.html>`_ 🎯 Troubleshooting and support ============================== 🚀 Professional support ----------------------- Enterprise quality support for Synapse including SLAs is available as part of an `Element Server Suite (ESS) <https://element.io/pricing>`_ subscription. If you are an existing ESS subscriber then you can raise a `support request <https://ems.element.io/support>`_ and access the `Element product documentation <https://docs.element.io>`_. 🤝 Community support -------------------- The `Admin FAQ <https://element-hq.github.io/synapse/latest/usage/administration/admin_faq.html>`_ includes tips on dealing with some common problems. For more details, see `Synapse's wider documentation <https://element-hq.github.io/synapse/latest/>`_.
