Interface AuthenticationClient

All Known Implementing Classes:

DefaultAuthenticationClient

public interface AuthenticationClient

The Okta Authentication API provides operations to authenticate users, perform multi-factor enrollment and verification, recover forgotten passwords, and unlock accounts. It can be used as a standalone API to provide the identity layer on top of your existing application, or it can be integrated with the Okta Sessions API to obtain an Okta session cookie and access apps within Okta.

The API is targeted for developers who want to build their own end-to-end login experience to replace the built-in Okta login experience and addresses the following key scenarios:

• Primary authentication allows you to verify username and password credentials for a user.
• Multifactor authentication (MFA) strengthens the security of password-based authentication by requiring additional verification of another factor such as a temporary one-time password or an SMS passcode. The Authentication API supports user enrollment with MFA factors enabled by the administrator, as well as MFA challenges based on your Okta Sign-On Policy.
• Recovery allows users to securely reset their password if they’ve forgotten it, or unlock their account if it has been locked out due to excessive failed login attempts. This functionality is subject to the security policy set by the administrator.

Create a client using the AuthenticationClients builder.

 Client client = AuthenticationClients.builder().build();
 

NOTE: We recommend you evaluate using an OIDC/OAuth 2.0 flow before considering this API

Since:

0.1.0

Method Detail

getDataStore

com.okta.sdk.ds.DataStore getDataStore()

Returns the internal DataStore of the client. It is typically not necessary to invoke this method as the Client implements the DataStore API and will delegate to this instance automatically.

Returns:

the client's internal DataStore.

instantiate

<T extends com.okta.sdk.resource.Resource> T instantiate(Class<T> clazz)

Delegates to the internal dataStore instance. This is a convenience mechanism to eliminate the constant need to call client.getDataStore() every time one needs to instantiate Resource.

Type Parameters:

T - the Resource sub-type

Parameters:

clazz - the Resource class to instantiate.

Returns:

a new instance of the specified Resource.
