*Activate Magic Link MFA*

Activate magic link multi-factor authentication during the setup process. This endpoint validates the magic link token and completes the MFA configuration.

#### TypeScript Client Library

```typescript
// Note: This endpoint doesn't have a direct client method in the provided TypeScript client
// You would need to use the generic makeRequest method:
// this.makeRequest<any>('mfa/magic-link/activate', 'POST', { 
//   token: 'eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9...' 
// });
```
