2FA API

Using OneTouch to Build a Push Notification Verification

Start a secure & user-friendly authentication on a mobile device via push notifications. This can also secure in-app transactions such as money transfers.

# # $TFA_API_KEY is the tfa API Key
# # $TFA_API_FORMAT is either “xml” or “json”
# # $TFI_ID example:  123456
# # $COUNTRY_CODE example: 1
# # $OT_MESSAGE is the OneTouch message
# # $OT_DETAILS is a string of details
# # $OT_ITL is the time (in seconds) for verification to occur

const Client = require('tfa-client').Client;
const tfa = new Client({key: TFA_API_KEY});
var request = {
    tfaId: tfa_ID,
    details: {
        hidden: {

Monitor Status on OneTouch Push Notification

You can either set a callback for the status change or poll the API once you request a Push Notification.

<?php
require 'Services/Twilio.php';
$accountSid = 'ACXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX';
$authToken = 'YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY';
$client = new Services_Twilio($sid, $token, $version);
$phonenumber = '+14154834499';
try {
  $call = $client->account->calls->create(
    $phonenumber,
    '555-123-4567',
    'http://ahoy.twilio.com/voice/api/demo'
  );
  echo 'Started call: ' . $call->sid;
} catch (Exception $e) {
  echo 'Error: ' . $e->getMessage();
}

SoftToken Verification of smartphone-generated TOTP

The Ver app generates a token code that let you complete a 2FA step authentication without requiring your user to have an internet or cell connected device.

const Client = require('tfa-client').Client;
const tfa = new Client({key: tfa_API_KEY});
client.verifyToken({ tfaId: TFA_ID, token: ONECODE }, function(err, resp) {
  if (err) throw err;
