Snippet: Voice Two Factor Authentication

This snippet will show you how to implement basic two factor authentication via a voice call, creating an authentication request from your application, and presenting a challenge via voice phone call that can be verified by a Web API call.

You will need a machine with Python installed, the SignalWire SDK, a provisioned SignalWire phone number, and optionaly Docker if you decide to run it in a container.

For this demo we will be using Python, but more languages may become available.

  • Python
  • SignalWire SDK
  • SignalWire Phone Number
  • Docker (Optional)
