Signup

The signup authentication action supports user account registration. The action can be configured with multiple registration factors.

The signup authentication action supports multiple registration factors:

  1. password - the account would be created using a password as the primary authentication method

  2. authenticator - one of the supported authenticators would generate the factor used for authentication, currently supported authenticators include: TOTP, SMS, Email, Webauthn and Passkeys.

When multiple factors are configured in the action, a user can select which authentication method is used during the registration process.

The action configuration model provides means to define and customize attributes that will be collected and persisted during the account registration. When combined in the authentication flow with the require active account authentication action, it allows for the creation and activation of a new user’s account.

Configuration#

When configured with authenticator as a registration factor the action requires that the authenticator has the action as a pre-requisite for registration.
