60391: Challenge not found


ERROR: 60391

error-60391 page anchor
VERIFY
ERROR

Twilio returns this error when the requested Challenge resource cannot be found in Verify. A Challenge represents a single verification attempt for an Entity using a Factor, and Challenge fetch and update requests are scoped by ServiceSid, Identity, and the Challenge Sid.

Possible causes

possible-causes page anchor
  • The Challenge Sid in your request does not match an existing Challenge resource.
  • The Identity value in the request does not match the Entity that owns the Challenge. Verify requires identity to be an immutable external identifier, and Challenge operations are scoped to that Entity.
  • The ServiceSid points to a different Verify Service than the one where the Challenge was created. Challenge requests are nested under a specific Service and Entity path.
  • Your application may be reusing a stale Challenge SID or combining values from different Services, Entities, or environments.
  • Confirm that ServiceSid, Identity, and the Challenge Sid exactly match the values returned when you created or previously fetched the Challenge.
  • If you do not have the current Challenge SID, list the Challenges for the Entity and verify that the resource exists before you fetch or update it. You can also filter the list by factorSid or status.
  • Store and reuse the same immutable identity value for the user across Entity, Factor, and Challenge operations. Do not substitute a different user identifier in later requests.
  • If you need a new verification attempt, create a new Challenge for the correct Entity and Factor, then use the new Challenge Sid in subsequent requests.
