  • Using PhenixID HTTP API to get OTP based on called-in phone number

    The use case behind this API call:

    - The end user will retreive one-time-password by calling to a specific phone number (company phone system)

    - The company phone system will pick up the phone number of the called-in user

    - The company phone system will call out to this api, sending in the phone number of the called-in user

    - PhenixID MFA server will search for the user (based on the received phone number)

    - If the user is found, an OTP will be generated and bound to the userID

    - The PhenixID HTTP API will return the OTP value to the calling API client (the company phone system)

    - The company phone system will automatically echo the one-time-password to the end user.

    - API function end

     

    After the api call:

    - The end user will enter username, password and OTP (the service protected may vary) and click Login

    - Username, password and OTP will be sent to PhenixID MFA server

    - PhenixID MFA server will validate the password (against the user directory) and the OTP

    - If validation is ok, user will be logged in.

     

    NB! This scenario can also be used for username+OTP based logins.
