Okta Verify FastPass is a device-specific enrollment of a user account into Okta Verify that provides passwordless authentication. When a user enrolls in Okta Verify FastPass on their account, this generates a FastPass enrollment entry for their account.
Okta APIs are a way for apps and services to interact with Okta. They can be used for a variety of purposes, including:
- User authentication: Authenticating users, recovering forgotten passwords, and unlocking.
- Object management: Programmatically managing Okta objects.
- Server control: Scaling server control with automation.
- Custom functionality: Integrating custom functionality into the Okta process.
A common way to review and manage Authenticator enrollments via API calls is to use the Factors API endpoint. When user authenticators are queried using the Factors endpoint, Okta Verify FastPass enrollments will show up as Signed Nonce. The Factors API was built for use on the previous Okta engine, Okta Classic, while Okta Verify FastPass Authenticator is unique to the newest engine, the Okta Identity Engine.

While newer Authenticator enrollments like Okta Verify FastPass may still be queried or, in some instances, modified using legacy API endpoints like the Factors endpoint, the Factors endpoint is not supported for the management of FastPass authenticator operations, including enrollment, modification, or removal of the FastPass enrollment, and is not recommended.
Okta recommends leveraging the Admin Console to manage end-user FastPass enrollments.
