Log in With One Time Password

If you are part of a network (e.g. VPN) to use the MIRACL Trust RADIUS service, you can log in using MIRACL Trust One Time Password (OTP).

You can register as a user by visiting the OTP generation link. This link is provided by your service provider and should look like this:

https://api.mpin.io/otpgen?client_id=<YOUR_CLIENT_ID>

This URL is for registration and OTP generation only. The actual service URL (e.g. which your VPN uses to login) is different.

The steps to log in to a service with OTP are as follows:

  1. Visit the OTP generation link and register a User ID.
  2. Visit the OTP generation link to generate an OTP with the already registered User ID, or do it from your MIRACL Trust mobile app.
  3. Visit your online service and enter the generated OTP as a password.

The OTP generation link allows you to generate an OTP using browser-based authentication. If you want to use the mobile app, you can also do that. Follow the corresponding instructions for more details.

# In-browser OTP

When you visit the OTP generation link, you first need to register a User ID to be able to create an OTP. Then you need to enter your PIN, and you are presented with an OTP:

You can use this OTP to log in to your service provider. It expires after a set period, indicated by the decreasing timer at the bottom. After this period, the OTP becomes invalid.

You can create a new one for the chosen User ID by clicking the RETRY button.

# Log In Using Mobile

When the OTP generation link is visited in your web browser, you should choose Log In Using Mobile, and a QR code is displayed. After you scan it with your MIRACL Trust mobile app, you start the device registration process. To finalize the registration, follow the instructions about registration with a mobile app.

When you have a registered User ID in your mobile app, you can tab over it:

This reveals the User ID options:

Select the Generate OTP button, which asks you to enter the PIN for your User ID.

Finally, OTP is presented:

This one-time password can then be used to access your OTP-configured application.

After a set period, your OTP expires and tapping ‘Generate New OTP’ asks you to re-authenticate and obtain a new OTP:
