Authentication Methods

Synthetic monitoring supports many authentication methods for your applications.

First-factor authentication methods:

Multi-factor authentication methods:

• SMS
• Email
• Azure AD
• Time-based One-time password (TOTP):
  You can use the pyotp libraries for Web Monitoring and otplib for API Monitoring. The following is an example of how to use these libraries:
  
  
  

  import time
  import pyotp
  from selenium import webdriver
  from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
  from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
  from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
  from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
  
  TOTP_SECRET = '<%totp_secret%>'
  
  # Initialize the TOTP generator
  totp = pyotp.TOTP(TOTP_SECRET)
  
  
  # Generate the current TOTP code and send it to OTP field
  totp_code = totp.now()
  auth_field=wait.until(EC.visibility_of_element_located((By.ID, 'app_totp')))
  auth_field.send_keys(totp_code)

  
  

  const { totp } = require('otplib')
  
  // Replace these with your actual values
  const apiUrl = 'https://api.github.com/user';
  const personalAccessToken = '<%TOKEN-IN-CREDENTIALS-VAULT%>';
  const totpSecret = '<%base64-secret-stored-in-secrets%>';
  
  // Generate TOTP code
  const totpCode = totp.generate(totpSecret);
  
  async function callGitHubApiWithMfa() {
    try {
      var response = await client.get(apiUrl, {
        headers: {
          'Authorization': `token ${personalAccessToken}`,
          'X-GitHub-OTP': totpCode
        }
      });
  
      console.log('API Response:', response.body);
    } catch (error) {
      console.error('Error calling GitHub API:', error.response ? error.response.data : error.message);
    }
  }
  
  callGitHubApiWithMfa();
