Hello privacyIDEA Community,
I have been working on a proof concept using privacyIDEA as MFA for an openvpn solution. I have privacyidea installed alongside freeradius on Ubuntu 18.04 using the ready made package (privacyidea-apache2).
While demonstrating privacyidea I was asked how users without QR scanners will be able to enroll tokens (TOTP). This was asked because the user are already using a mac desktop app called Authy as a client to other MFA solutions. The company doesn’t provide smartphones to all employees either hence the no QR scanner.
I played around with the token enrollment process and found that I was able to pull the secret out of the link designed to add the token to google authenticator and then just use it to configure Authy. I was optimistic that I would be able to find a setting to enable this code to be shown along with the QR code however after searching I am unable to find it. I tried using show_seed however I was unsuccessful in displaying the code in text. This lead me to believe that I am incorrect in show_seed’s behavior or did not do it correctly within my policy.
Is it possible to display the secret in text somehow when the user enrolls a token? If so any assistance to point me in the right direction would be appreciated.
Thanks,
