AuthMinder supports the following states for a credential that is issued to a user:
Indicates that the credential is active and can be used for authentication.
The credential is disabled by the administrator.
The credential is locked when the user consecutively fails to authenticate for the maximum number of negative attempts configured. For example if the maximum attempts configured is 3, then the third attempt with wrong credential will lock the credential.
The credential is verified when the OTP submitted by the user is authenticated by AuthMinder Server successfully.
Note: This status is applicable only for OTP.
The credential of the user is deleted.
When you perform an operation on a credential, the status of the credential might be changed after the operation is performed successfully on the credential. For example, when the user successfully authenticates with their OTP, then status of the user’s OTP is changed to VERIFIED.
The following table lists the transitions possible between the supported credential states:
