Describe the bug
In case of a misconfigured login flow, token-based authentication may be necessary, which begins with generating a token. The process for this can be found on Authentik's official website under the Troubleshooting section titled "I can't log in to authentik": https://docs.goauthentik.io/docs/troubleshooting/login.
I chose to use the CLI method and successfully generated the token. However, there is no detailed documentation on how to use it. All I received was the following message:
"Store this link safely, as it will allow anyone to access authentik as #user.
/recovery/use-token/#verylongtoken"
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Log into the CLI: Access the Authentik server's command line interface.
Run the following command: ak create_recovery_key X #user (Replace X with the number of years the token should remain active, Replace #user with the username of the affected user for whom you want to generate the token.)

Run the following command: ak create_recovery_key X #user (Replace X with the number of years the token should remain active, Replace #user with the username of the affected user for whom you want to generate the token.)
Use the generated link: Attempt to use the provided link to access the recovery process. For example, I tried: https://mydomain.tld/recovery/use-token/#verylongtoken This resulted in a "not found" error message.
Expected behavior Gain access to the Authentik admin interface by bypassing the faulty login flow using the recovery token.
