Mobile Token Configuration

Mobile Token application requires configuration in order to set an active activation for the POWERAUTH_TOKEN authentication method for given user. Mobile token configuration should be performed when user activates the mobile token (e.g. in internet banking). When the user disables the mobile token, the activation should be unconfigured, too.

Web Flow uses the configured activation when sending push notifications and when authorizing operations using Mobile Token. When activation is not configured for the user, the POWERAUTH_TOKEN authentication method is not available and the user needs to use an alternative method for authorization of the operation (e.g. SMS_KEY).

See the Next Step REST API documentation which describes this configuration step.

Enabling Mobile Token

The mobile token needs to be enabled using following configuration parameters:

• Mobile token needs to be enabled in table ns_operation_config using the mobile_token_enabled column. This parameter configures whether mobile token is enabled for given operation.
• Mobile token needs to be enabled in table ns_auth_method using the has_mobile_token column. This parameter configures whether authentication method supports mobile token. It should not be necessary to change the default settings, but it is possible to change on authentication method level whether mobile token is enabled.
• Mobile token needs to be enabled in table ns_user_prefs. The ns_auth_method.user_prefs_column parameter specifies using which column is the mobile token enabled. Furthermore the activation ID for mobile needs to be configured, as explained above. Both enabling mobile token in user preferences and setting the activation ID is typically done by calling the Next Step REST API.
