KOBIL AST Unlink All Devices
Overview
The primary function of this authenticator is to unlink all AST devices associated with a user during the authentication flow. It can optionally enforce a single-device policy, ensuring that a user is restricted to only one active linked device at a time.
Usage
This authenticator can be positioned at different stages of the authentication flow based on the desired behavior:
-
At the beginning of the flow:
Unlinks all previously linked devices before the authentication process starts, ensuring a clean state. -
At the end of the flow:
Unlinks all previously linked devices except the latest device(s) added during the current flow, effectively retaining only newly registered devices.
This authenticator is available only on IDP Core version 5.3.0 or above.
