Reset password with express

[sumoncse19]

I want to try to implement reset password of clerk with express, but it's not working.

`
async resetPasswordRequest(email: string) {
try {
const user = await this.userRepository.findOne({ where: { email } })
if (!user) {
throw new AppError(404, 'User not found')
}

  // Create sign-in attempt with reset password strategy
  const signInAttempt = await clerk.signIns.attemptFirstFactor({
    identifier: email,
    strategy: 'reset_password_email_code',
  })

  if (!signInAttempt) {
    throw new AppError(500, 'Failed to initiate password reset')
  }

  // Prepare first factor verification to send the code
  await signInAttempt.prepareFirstFactor({
    strategy: 'reset_password_email_code',
  })

  return {
    success: true,
    message: 'Password reset verification code has been sent to your email',
    signInId: signInAttempt.id,
  }
} catch (error) {
  console.error('Reset password request error:', error)
  if (error instanceof AppError) {
    throw error
  }
  throw new AppError(500, 'Failed to initiate password reset')
}

}

async resetPassword(code: string, newPassword: string) {
try {
// Create a sign-in attempt
const signInAttempt = await clerk.signIns.create({
strategy: 'reset_password_email_code',
})

  // Attempt first factor verification with the code and new password
  const result = await signInAttempt.attemptFirstFactor({
    strategy: 'reset_password_email_code',
    code,
    password: newPassword,
  })

  // Check if 2FA is required
  if (result.status === 'needs_second_factor') {
    throw new AppError(
      400,
      '2FA is required but not supported in this flow',
    )
  }

  // Check if the reset was successful
  if (result.status !== 'complete') {
    throw new AppError(400, 'Password reset failed')
  }

  return {
    success: true,
    message: 'Password has been reset successfully',
    sessionId: result.createdSessionId,
  }
} catch (error) {
  console.error('Reset password error:', error)
  if (error instanceof AppError) {
    throw error
  }

  // Handle specific Clerk errors
  if (error && typeof error === 'object' && 'errors' in error) {
    const clerkError = error as {
      errors: Array<{
        code: string
        message: string
        longMessage?: string
      }>
    }

    if (clerkError.errors[0]?.code === 'form_password_pwned') {
      throw new AppError(
        422,
        'This password has been compromised in a data breach. Please choose a different password.',
      )
    }

    throw new AppError(
      400,
      clerkError.errors[0]?.longMessage ||
        clerkError.errors[0]?.message ||
        'Invalid verification code or password',
    )
  }

  throw new AppError(400, 'Invalid verification code or password')
}

}
`

and this is my clerk.ts file code:
`
import { createClerkClient } from '@clerk/backend'
import { clerkMiddleware, requireAuth } from '@clerk/express'
import dotenv from 'dotenv'

dotenv.config()

if (!process.env.CLERK_SECRET_KEY) {
throw new Error('CLERK_SECRET_KEY is not set in environment variables')
}

// Initialize Clerk client for API operations
export const clerk = createClerkClient({
secretKey: process.env.CLERK_SECRET_KEY,
})

// Export middleware
export const clerkAuth = clerkMiddleware()
export { requireAuth }
`

I tried a lot's of way but i couldn't find any solution.
