- API

Solution
There is no built-in functionality or Application Programming Interface (API) to trigger an Okta Verify push notification remotely on desktop devices. Okta FastPass is not supported via API because the authenticator is designed to require direct user interaction for both the enrollment and authentication processes.
Feature requests for this functionality can be submitted through the Okta Ideas portal. More information on this process is available in the Okta Ideas Overview and FAQ.
