NAME
RT::Extension::Captcha - use Google reCAPTCHA v3 to verify users before some actions in RT
DESCRIPTION
This extension uses Google reCAPTCHA v3 for user verification when a user creates a ticket (using either regular interface or quick create) and on replies/comments (updates).
Previous 1.* versions of this extension generated a captcha image for the user to solve. With the switch to Google reCAPTCHA v3 the user will no longer be interrupted by a captcha image.
RT VERSION
Works with RT 6.0.0 and newer. Install the latest 1.* version for older RTs.

Create Google reCAPTCHA key
To create a reCAPTCHA key see here
$CaptchaSiteKey
Set your Google reCAPTCHA site key. This is required.
Set( $CaptchaSiteKey, '...' );$CaptchaSecret
Set your Google reCAPTCHA secret key. This is required.
Set( $CaptchaSecret, '...' );$CaptchaScore
Set the minimum score to verify a user. This is optional and must be a value between 0 and 1. It defaults to 0.5.
The higher the score the more likely the user is real. Setting a higher value for CaptchaScore means it is harder for robots to fool the verification but also makes it more possible a real user might fail verification.
Set( $CaptchaScore, 0.4 );AUTHOR
