To enable MFA for specific apps registered in okta through api

I want to enable Multi Factor Authentication for specific apps registered in okta through api.I found Factors api but in that the MFA was enabled for a user. I want to enable MFA for some specific apps only. Is there a way to enable MFA for certain applications only through api?

    Not sure you are looking for the this but this is how I did that for specific app.

    • Create separate group named it like "MFA" under directory->groups.
    • Under this group, it gives option to add both users and apps. Assign app under this group.
    • Go to Security - Multifactor and create new factor policy under factor enrolment tab.
    • In this policy, create rule and assign this to only MFA group so that only specific users under MFA will be prompt for MFA for selected app you assigned in that group.

     

    Hope this would help.

    Hello Vaibhav,

     

    Thanks for your reply.Actually i want that functionality so that whenever a specific type of application is created in okta,MFA is enabled for it.So that whenever a user tries to access that app, he needs to pass that multifactor challenge.Actually i have an application which is using okta api's to create users and applications in okta. So what i want is whenever i create a specific type of application i can enable mfa at app level at the time of creation only.So while using the create application api for okta is there any parameter or something by which we can enable the mfa at app level.
