Customer Authentication (biometric/fingerprint/OTP) API

  • 1.  Customer Authentication (biometric/fingerprint/OTP) API

    Posted Jun 18, 2025 07:17

    Hi Team 

    We are looking for a reusable Customer Authentication API , where either of  customer's biometrics/fingerprint/otp will be sent in input and it will be validated against an external entity. Can you guide us to the appropriate TMF API that fits best in this case .

    Thanks in advance 

    Regards
    Naveen

    Hi Naveen

    There isn't a TMF Open API for IAM.  The TMF720 Digital Identity Management API is used for managing the credentials of a party/partyRole/resource.  However, it does not handle the authentication itself.  There are already other SDOs that provide APIs to handle this, e.g. OIDC, along with numerous identity providers to handle the authentication.

    Good luck
