Product Documentation
The preregister web service is the preliminary step to register new FIDO credentials for users; this web service performs three functions:
- Provides SKFS with a username to identify the user
- Determines the policy with which this registration will be accepted
- Generates a unique challenge to be signed by the user's FIDO Authenticator as part of the registration process
The web service requires the following parameters supplied as JSON objects (shown in the Request example in this section):
