Email is not received with forgotPassword authn API when MFA is enabled in Recovery flow

,

When forgotPassword authn API is triggered with username and factortype as email, Email is not received even though the API gives 200 OK response.
API response body obtained is :-
{
“status”: “RECOVERY_CHALLENGE”,
“factorResult”: “WAITING”,
“factorType”: “EMAIL”,
“recoveryType”: “PASSWORD”
}
System Log from Okta Dashboard says:- “Failure : Invalid User State”.

This issue is observed only after enabling MFA as required in the Recovery flow. Otherwise, it was working fine with the same piece of code.
