Enhancements

PingID SDK has been extended with the following features:

Configuring timeouts for authentication requests

You can now configure the amount of time that an authentication request lasts before timing out. You can use this feature to customize the authentication experience to your user’s needs, and reduce the number of users that experience a push notification timeout on authentication attempts.

You can configure:

  • Device Timeout: The amount of time in seconds that a new authentication request notification must reach a user’s mobile device, before timing out.

  • Total Timeout: The total amount of time in seconds that a new authentication request will last, before timing out. This includes the time for Device Timeout, plus the time that the user has to respond to the authentication request.

In the admin guide, see Updating a PingID SDK app’s configuration.

API support for configuring timeouts for authentication requests

In addition to the timeout configuration settings in the admin UI, the PingID SDK Application Attributes API has been extended, so that customers can configure the amount of time that an authentication request lasts before timing out.

In the PingID SDK developer’s guide, see Application Attributes API.

Resolved issues
