Desktop MFA for Windows and Mac

Hi!

 

We've being testing Device Access with Windows computers and we'd like to start with Mac but We have some doubts:

 

In the Sign On tab of the Desktop MFA Application we've set "AD SAM account name" for the Application username format for the windows computers, but we've read in the okta help that for the Desktop MFA for macOS that we need to select Okta username prefix.

 

Is that right? how could we configure Desktop MFA for windows and macOS computers at the same time?

 

Thank you

    Hello @dtxt3 (dtxt3)​ Thank you for reacting out to our Community!

     

    If the AD sam account name and Okta prefix are the same you can use the same application. If they are not you could setup 2 separate applications, one for Mac users and one for Windows users.
