Adding an Authentication API application on Identity as a Service enables integration between the application using the Identity as a Service authentication APIs and Identity as a Service. Once configured, users are prompted to enter Identity as a Service challenge responses into their application user interface. The application communicates with Identity as a Service using the API calls to authenticate each response and grant access to the application.
