Integrating TruValidate Multifactor Authentication Core Auth SDK

Via TruValidate Multifactor Authentication Authenticator App

Before integrating the TruValidate Multifactor Authentication Authenticator SDK with your app, an administrator must complete the following steps:

1. From a mobile device, download and install the TruValidate Multifactor Authentication Authenticator app from either the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store.
2. Run the TruValidate Multifactor Authentication Authenticator app and tap Get Started.
3. Complete the Link page. This includes:
   • A username and device name. You will use this username to log into the TruValidate Multifactor Authentication Admin Center. The device name will appear when you review linked devices.
   • Choose which communication channel you want to use to complete account creation and device registration. You can choose Email and/or SMS. Accept the terms and agreements, then tap Done.
4. Based on the linking method(s) you chose, you will receive an email and/or text message with a link that you must follow to complete account creation and link your device to the TruValidate Multifactor Authentication Admin Center.
5. Now that the device is configured, you must associate it with a service in the TruValidate Multifactor Authentication Admin Center. From a browser, open the TruValidate Multifactor Authentication Admin Center.
6. To log in, enter the username that you entered into the TruValidate Multifactor Authentication Authenticator app when you linked the device.
7. On the device, authorize the login. If any security auth methods have been enabled, you will be prompted to complete them before you can complete authorization.
8. Now that you are in the TruValidate Multifactor Authentication Admin Center, click the left navigation button and select Organizations. The All Organizations page appears.
9. Click the New Organization button. The Create New Organization screen appears.
10. Enter a name for the organization, provide your name and email address (or name and email address of an admin user). Complete the Create New Organization Screen.
11. The user whose email you entered will receive a confirmation email. Click the confirmation email to complete creation of the organization.
12. Back in the TruValidate Multifactor Authentication Admin Center, open the organization you created. Expand the menu button on the left of the screen and select Organizations, then click the organization.
13. From within the organization, select the Directories tab.
14. Click the New Directory button to create a new directory. Enter a name for the directory and click the Submit button.
15. Directory details appear. From here, on the General tab, you can see a Authenticator SDK Keys list. Capture the Authenticator SDK Key. You will need it later when integrating the TruValidate Multifactor Authentication SDK into your app.
16. Also on the General tab, under Services, click the NEW SERVICE button. The Create New Service screen appears.
17. Enter a name and description for the service. Optionally choose an avatar file, read and accept the Terms of Service and click the Create Service button.
