Strong authentication: invitations

Some tasks require strong authentication: the person confirms with an authenticator app or a passkey. For this to work, they must set it up beforehand. Here you invite people to do so and see who is ready.

For administrators only

You need administrator rights for the organization. People with the right Allow strong-authentication invitations also see this area, but only with their own invitations.

Where to find it

Administration → Authentication

The list of invitations

1. Invite a person: send a new invitation
2. Search field: search by e-mail or by the person who sent the invitation
3. Status of each invitation:

Status	Meaning
Invited	The e-mail has been sent; the person has not set anything up yet
Set up	The person has set up what was required
Withdrawn	The invitation was withdrawn; the link no longer works

The Required column shows what the person should set up. With ⋮ in the row you choose:

• for Invited: Send again or Withdraw invitation
• for Set up: Have it set up again, for example after losing the phone. The person receives a link; when they open it, they replace their previous setup.
• for Withdrawn: Send again or Delete invitation

Invite a person

1. Click Invite a person and enter the E-mail address. actaSIGN shows whether the person is known.
2. Under What should the person set up? choose Passkey, Authenticator app or both. With both, the person must set up both.
3. Click Send invitation.

If the address is not yet known, also enter Full name and Language; actaSIGN then creates the person.

Good to know

• Send again works at most once a day. Otherwise actaSIGN reports Already sent today.
• You can also invite members without a setup directly from the Members list (Send setup invitation).
• What the invited person sees: Strong authentication.
