TOTP Authentication

Overview of TOTP-Based Authentication and Session Token Generation

  • QR Code Generation:

    • A QR code is generated and scanned by an authenticator app to set up TOTP.

    • Alternatively, the secret key provided by the API can be manually entered into the authenticator app. This key will facilitate the manual setup of the TOTP generator.

  • TOTP Setup: The process begins with setting up Two-Factor Authentication (TOTP). This ensures added security for API access.

  • TOTP Validation and Session Token Generation: Once TOTP is set up, the user provides a TOTP code to generate a session token for accessing the Open API. Every time the user wants to access the API, they will use the OTP from their authenticator app to generate a secure session token.
