  • 1.  How to automate two factor authentication (OTP)?

    Posted 08/02/21 01:54 PM
    Hello,
    can you please advise with 2 factor authentication? First it is necessary to populate standard login/password credentials in the web portal. After that the user receives OTP (a code/number) on mobile phone and it must be populated to an input form on the next step in the login procedure. Is there some component available for access to SMS messages via API or something else to solve the process? Thank you in advance. Jiri Mraz

    Hello!

    I don't know any API for SMS receiving. In order to handle 2FA I would suggest you configure an e-mail address as the first OTP option. So you can connect to your e-mail inbox and check for the OTP receiving. Then you could open the e-mail message and locate the OTP via regex, for example.

    Hello Antonio,
    thank you for the reply. The issue is that it allows only mobile phone number as a target for the OTP code delivery (no email).

    Hello Ivo,
    unfortunately not. Finally we accepted the user interaction during the process with manual OTP submission.
    If you will succeed I kindly ask you to let me know. Thank you in advance.
