The POST /api/verifyOneTimeCode method is used to confirm a user-initiated operation by verifying a one-time code (OTP) provided by the user. This endpoint enhances security by ensuring that the one-time code is correctly validated against the server’s records before proceeding with the operation.
Purpose:
This API ensures secure authentication for sensitive transactions or actions by validating the OTP, confirming the user’s identity, and authorizing the requested operation.
Response:
Upon successful verification, the API returns a response confirming that the operation has been completed. If the code is incorrect or expired, it returns an error message.
Key Features:
- Secure Authentication: Ensures that only the intended user can complete sensitive operations by verifying the OTP.
- Operation Confirmation: Ties the one-time code to specific operations, ensuring that transactions or actions are confirmed securely.
- Error Handling for Invalid Codes: Returns informative error messages when the OTP is incorrect or expired, guiding users through reattempts
Summary:
The POST /api/verifyOneTimeCode method provides a secure mechanism to verify one-time codes for sensitive operations. By ensuring that only valid OTPs are accepted, this API helps protect transactions and user actions, preventing unauthorized access or fraud. This functionality is critical in maintaining robust security protocols within banking applications and other systems handling sensitive data..
