VerificationMethod Enum

Contains the different ways users can identify themselves when logging in. You can use it to implement mobile-centric passwordless login pages and to self-register (and deregister) verification methods.

Usage

The enum value is an argument in System.Site.passwordlessLogin, System.UserManagement.registerVerificationMethod, and System.UserManagement.deregisterVerificationMethod methods. The value indicates the method used to verify a user’s identity.

Enum Values

The following are the values of the Auth.VerificationMethod enum.

Value Description
BUILT_IN_AUTHENTICATOR Identity verified with a built-in authenticator.
EMAIL Identity verified with a verification code sent in an email message.
PASSWORD Identity verified with a password.
SALESFORCE_AUTHENTICATOR Identity verified by Salesforce Authenticator.
SECURITY_KEY Identity verified by a WebAuthn-compatible physical security key. Includes all security keys registered or used after Summer ’22.
SMS Identity verified with a verification code sent via SMS message.
TOTP Identity verified with a time-based one-time password (TOTP).
U2F Identity verified by a U2F physical security key, such as a YubiKey.

For U2F security keys registered or used after Summer ’22, use SECURITY_KEY instead.
