Preserve the published Kotlin JVM signatures. Adding defaulted parameters changes synthetic default-argument entrypoints. Adding a data-class constructor property also changes the generated copy entrypoints. Previously compiled Kotlin clients can fail with NoSuchMethodError; @JvmOverloads does not preserve those entrypoints. (kotlinlang.org)

I've reworded the PR description to say this.
There was a problem hiding this comment.
@utkrishtsahu Thanks for clarifying. The description update can document the limitation, but it does not restore binary compatibility. @JvmOverloads does not preserve the old Kotlin default-argument or data-class copy entrypoints.
This finding remains open as a compatibility limitation, not a documentation issue.

Done. verification is now Map<PasskeyVerificationMethod, String> = emptyMap(), and it's left out of the request when empty.

Done: verificationRequired is a non-null list that defaults to empty. Gson skips Kotlin defaults for missing fields, so I added a small deserializer (registered in GsonProvider) and a test that checks a response without the field gives an empty list.

Added. It checks that mfa_required on a passkey sign-in is reported as MFA and is not treated as a verification retry.

Should we restrict this Map to be of specific types
Map<IdentifierType, String > instead of <String ,String> so that people can only pass definite values
enum IdentifierType {
EMAIL("email),
PHONE("phone")
}
There was a problem hiding this comment.
yes enum or sealed class for identifier type would be better
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Done. I added PasskeyVerificationMethod (EMAIL, PHONE) and used it for the map key, verificationRequired and passkeyVerificationRequired. I made it a small class instead of a strict enum so an identifier the SDK doesn't know yet is kept rather than dropped, and so it works from Java as PasskeyVerificationMethod.EMAIL. I used that name instead of IdentifierType.

yes retryable would be for two cases
- error code is invalid_grant and authsession is present. In this case we need to return verification as well present in the error payload
- error code is invalid_request and authsession is present
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Done. isPasskeyVerificationRetryable is true for invalid_grant with an auth_session (the identifiers come back in passkeyVerificationRequired), and for invalid_request with either "Missing required parameter: verification…" or "…is not allowed to be empty". The second case has no auth_session, so the original challenge's session is reused. Both are covered by tests.

Letscheck if any verification type is passing an empty code or not. Throw an error in that scenario in the SDK before making a API call
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Done. I used a RequestValidator, as MfaApiClient does. A blank code fails with an AuthenticationException (a0.auth.verification_code_empty) before any network call, and a test checks that no request is sent.

lets rephrase when database connection has verification enabled for email and phone
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Done, rephrased as suggested
- Add PasskeyVerificationMethod and use it for verification codes and identifiers - Retryable when invalid_grant has auth_session, or invalid_request for a missing/empty code - Reject blank verification codes before the network call - verification defaults to emptyMap; verificationRequired defaults to an empty list - Reuse passwordless.DeliveryMethod instead of PasskeyDeliveryMethod - Treat HTTP 429 as isTooManyAttempts; remove isTooManyRequests - Add mfa_required test; update passkey docs Co-Authored-By: Claude

Changes
Adds support for inline OTP identifier verification during native passkey signup. When a database connection requires OTP verification for an identifier such as email or phone,
/passkey/registerreturns the list of identifiers to verify, and/oauth/tokenaccepts the collected codes. Existing flows are unchanged when no verification is required.Added
PasskeyVerificationMethod(EMAIL,PHONE): enum for the identifiers that need a code. Identifiers the SDK doesn't know are skipped.PasskeyRegistrationChallenge.verificationRequired: List<PasskeyVerificationMethod>?: the identifiers that must be verified with an OTP before tokens are issued.nullwhen the server asks for no verification.signinWithPasskey(..., verification: Map<PasskeyVerificationMethod, String> = emptyMap(), verificationRequired: List<PasskeyVerificationMethod> = emptyList())(both overloads):verificationis sent as theverificationobject to/oauth/token, and left out when empty.verificationRequiredis only used on the client and is not sent. When it isn't empty, aRequestValidatorchecks, before any network call, that each listed identifier has a non-empty code. The first identifier without one fails the request with aninvalid_requestAuthenticationException(statusCode0), using the server's wording:Missing required parameter: verification.<id>or"verification.<id>" is not allowed to be empty.signupWithPasskey(..., deliveryMethod: DeliveryMethod? = null): optionaldelivery_method(text/voice) for phone OTP. This reuses the existingpasswordless.DeliveryMethod.AuthenticationException:isPasskeyVerificationRetryable: true when the error isinvalid_grantwith anauth_session, meaning a code was wrong and attempts remain.passkeyAuthSession: theauth_sessionfrom the error payload, if any.passkeyVerificationRequired: List<PasskeyVerificationMethod>?: the identifiers whose code was wrong. Only set when the error is retryable.Changed
signinWithPasskey(both overloads),signupWithPasskeyand thePasskeyRegistrationChallengeconstructor gain@JvmOverloads, so the previous call shapes keep working from Kotlin and Java.Documentation
examples/passkeys.md: new "Passkey signup with identifier verification" section with Kotlin (coroutines) and Java samples. It covers collecting OTPs before creating the credential, passingverificationRequired, the check before sending, retrying a wrong code with the same credential and auth session, and a capped number of attempts.Compatibility
$defaultentry points change. Java callers are unaffected. Apps recompile against the new SDK, so this only matters for precompiled libraries that depend on Auth0.Android.Testing
31 new unit tests (MockWebServer):
verificationRequiredabsent (null), single, multiple; unknown identifiers skippeddelivery_methodsent when set, left out when notverificationsent when set; left out by default and when empty; blank codes sent as given when noverificationRequiredis passedStringoverloadinvalid_grant, terminalinvalid_grant,invalid_requestwith and withoutauth_session(not retryable), consumed session (403),mfa_required(not retryable), other errors withauth_session(not retryable), plain-text 429 parsed without errorTested by hand on a physical Pixel 10 (Android 17) against a tenant with email OTP verification enabled:
