# Enroll and Challenge OTP Authenticators

Auth0 provides a built-in <Tooltip tip="Multi-factor authentication (MFA): User authentication process that uses a factor in addition to username and password such as a code via SMS." cta="View Glossary" href="/docs/glossary?term=MFA">MFA</Tooltip> enrollment and authentication flow using [Universal Login](/docs/authenticate/login/auth0-universal-login). However, if you want to create your own user interface, you can use the [MFA API](/docs/secure/multi-factor-authentication/multi-factor-authentication-developer-resources/mfa-api) to accomplish it.

## Prerequisites

Before you can use the MFA APIs, you'll need to enable the MFA grant type for your application. Go to [Auth0 Dashboard > Applications > Advanced Settings > Grant Types](https://manage.auth0.com/#/applications) and select **MFA**.

* [Configure OTP](/docs/secure/multi-factor-authentication/multi-factor-authentication-factors/configure-otp-notifications-for-mfa) as a factor in the Dashboard or using the [Management API](https://auth0.com/docs/api/management/v2#!/Guardian/put_factors_by_name).

## Enroll with OTP

### Get MFA token

Depending on when you are triggering enrollment, you can obtain an <Tooltip tip="Access Token: Authorization credential, in the form of an opaque string or JWT, used to access an API." cta="View Glossary" href="/docs/glossary?term=access+token">access token</Tooltip> for using the MFA API in different ways:

* If you are enrolling during authentication, see [Authenticate With Resource Owner Password Grant and MFA](/docs/secure/multi-factor-authentication/authenticate-using-ropg-flow-with-mfa).
* If you want to let the user enroll a factor at any moment, see [Manage MFA Factor Enrollments](/docs/secure/multi-factor-authentication/manage-mfa-auth0-apis/manage-authenticator-factors-mfa-api).

### Enroll authenticator

Make a `POST` request to the MFA Associate endpoint to enroll the user's authenticator. The bearer token required by this endpoint is the MFA token obtained in the previous step.

To enroll with OTP, set the `authenticator_types` parameter to `[otp]`.

If successful, you receive a response like this:

```json lines
{
  "authenticator_type": "otp",
  "secret": "EN...S",
  "barcode_uri": "otpauth://totp/tenant:user?secret=...&issuer=tenant&algorithm=SHA1&digits=6&period=30",
  "recovery_codes": [ "N3B...XC"]
}
```

If you get a `User is already enrolled` error, the user already has an MFA factor enrolled. Before associating another factor with the user, you must challenge the user with the existing factor.

If this is the first time the user is associating an authenticator, you'll notice the response includes `recovery_codes`. Recovery codes are used to access the user's account in the event that they lose access to the account or device used for their second-factor authentication. These are one-time usable codes, and new ones are generated as necessary.

### Confirm OTP enrollment

To confirm the enrollment, the end user will need to enter the secret obtained in the previous step in an OTP generator application like Google Authenticator. They can enter the secret by scanning a QR code with the `barcode_uri` or by typing the secret code manually in that OTP application. You should provide users a way to get the secret as text in case they cannot scan the QR code (for example, if they are enrolling from a mobile device, or using a desktop OTP application).

After the user enters the secret, the OTP application will display a 6-digit code, that the user should enter in your application. The application should then make a `POST` request to the <Tooltip tip="OAuth 2.0: Authorization framework that defines authorization protocols and workflows." cta="View Glossary" href="/docs/glossary?term=OAuth">OAuth</Tooltip> <Tooltip tip="Token Endpoint: Endpoint on the Authorization Server that is used to programmatically request tokens." cta="View Glossary" href="/docs/glossary?term=Token+endpoint">Token endpoint</Tooltip>, including that `otp` value.

If the call was successful, you'll receive a response in the following format, containing the access token:

```json lines
{
  "id_token": "eyJ...i",
  "access_token": "eyJ...i",
  "expires_in": 600,
  "scope": "openid profile",
  "token_type": "Bearer"
}
```

At this point, the authenticator is fully associated and ready to be used, and you have the authentication tokens for the user.

You can check at any point to verify whether an authenticator has been confirmed by calling the MFA Authenticators endpoint. If the authenticator is confirmed, the value returned for `active` is `true`.

## Challenge with OTP

### Get MFA token

Get an MFA token following the steps described in [Authenticate With Resource Owner Password Grant and MFA](/docs/secure/multi-factor-authentication/authenticate-using-ropg-flow-with-mfa).

### Retrieve enrolled authenticators

You can list all enrolled authenticators using the MFA Authenticators endpoint:

  ```bash cURL lines
  curl --request GET \
    --url 'https://{yourDomain}/mfa/authenticators' \
    --header 'authorization: Bearer MFA_TOKEN' \

  ```

  ```csharp C# lines

  IRestResponse response = client.Execute(request);

You will get a list of authenticators with the following format:

```json lines
[
    {
        "id": "recovery-code|dev_qpOkGUOxBpw6R16t",
        "authenticator_type": "recovery-code",
        "active": true
    },
    {
        "id": "totp|dev_6NWz8awwC8brh2dN",
        "authenticator_type": "otp",
        "active": true
    }
]
```

### Complete authentication using received code

The user will collect a one time password, which you will then collect from them. You can verify the code and get authentication tokens using the OAuth0 Token endpoint, specifying the one time password in the `otp` parameter:

    --data 'client_id={yourClientId}' \
    --data 'client_secret={yourClientSecret}' \

    --data 'otp={userOtpCode}'
  ```
