Device REST API

The Device endpoint allows creating, importing and managing hardware or software-based devices.

You can also perform specific actions such as device synchronization and PIN unlock.

Devices enable a user to perform authentication to access a protected resource.

Each device is linked to a device type to categorize the device. Device types define device parameters leveraged during user authentication.

For the attributes of the base resource type, see urn:hid:scim:api:idp:2.0:Device.

See also the Get and Set OATH Device Counter tutorial.

Import Devices

Note: This release of the API only supports importing PSKC, SDS and PKI files.

[POST] /Device/.import

The parameters are:

Parameter	Description
`adapter`	Code of the adapter to use (OATH-PSKC, SDS and PKI are supported in this release) mapping – array of objects representing a mapping (deviceType and algo)
`binding`	Object representing the binding between the deviceType and the associated credentialType to import
`encryptionKey`	Encryption key (in hexadecimal string format)
`resyncWindow`	Resynchronization window
`status`	Status of the device after import (ACTIVE or PENDING)
`owner`	(Optional) Reference of the user to who the device should be assigned If owner is specified, either value or display must also be specified: value - userId (for example, 12345) display - userCode (for example, user01)
`policy`	(Optional) Reference of the authentication policy for creating the user authenticator If policy is specified, the owner must also be specified: value - authentication policy code (for example, AT_EMPPKI)
`payload`	Binary of the file to import, encoded in base64
`async`	Indicates if the import is synchronous or asynchronous
`correlationId`	(Optional) If no correlationId is specified, a random one is generated. The correlationId will appear in all audit records for this import.
`startDate`	(Optional) Can be used to define a "valid from" date for devices and credentials
`endDate`	(Optional) Can be used to define a "valid to" date for devices and credentials

Note: The date format for startDate and endDate is dd/MM/yyyy.

Import Mapping Parameter

This mapping defines the deviceType to use during device creation depending on the algorithm(s) found in the file.

Possible values for algo are:

ai – short name for HID tokens
hotp – short name for OATH HMAC-based OTP
totp – short name for OATH Time-based OTP
ocra – short name for OATH Challenge Response algorithm

Note: The value for algo is not case-sensitive.

Only the slots from the file with ai, hotp, totp or ocra algorithms with be imported. Other entries using a different algo will be ignored.

If a slot uses ai, hotp, totp or ocra, the mapping must define a deviceType for the corresponding algo.

If there are multiple slot entries with the OCRA algorithm for the same device, then the slot’s OCRA suite must be used to map the correct deviceType (see the following examples).

    "count": 100
}

Where:

The filter attribute can be used to reduce the number of records you want to see.

You can use the and operator within the filters.
The following attributes can be used for a paginated search:
- count can be used to limit the size of the search results
- startIndex specifies the index of the first result returned (where 0 will returned the same paginated result as 1)
The result will contain a totalResults attribute to allow you to compute the number of pages.

Note:
The maximum number of rows returned per request is 100, even if you specify a higher count value. Therefore, for lists that are longer than 100 elements, it is mandatory for you to paginate the results.
