On-demand Okta MFA challenge via a self-service page
Build a workflow fronted by a page that accepts a user's email and the Okta factor to challenge. Resolve the Okta user, send the selected MFA challenge, and poll for the response. Report the outcome (approved/denied/timeout) on a status page and to Slack. Handle users without the factor enrolled, unknown emails, and polling timeouts. Output the challenge result.
What this prompt builds
Trigger an Okta MFA challenge to a user by email from a page and track the result.
The problem
When verifying a user's identity during a suspicious event or support request, there's no quick way to force an MFA check on demand. Analysts fall back on weaker, slower verification.
Solution and impact
This workflow lets a responder pick a user and Okta factor on a page and fire an MFA challenge, sharing the status via page or Slack. Identity can be verified in real time during investigations and helpdesk flows.
