 There are other configuration items that are queried to your method but returning `null` let WTelegramClient choose a default adequate value.
 Those shown above are the only ones that have no default values and should be provided by your method.
 Returning `null` for verification_code or password will show a prompt for console apps, or an error otherwise.
+Returning an empty string for verification_code requests resending the code through another method (SMS or Call).
 
 Another simple approach is to pass `Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable` as the config callback and define the configuration items as environment variables.
 Undefined variables get the default `null` behavior.
