PingOne Platform APIs

Flows APIs

The Flows endpoint is used to interact with the user in a sign-on workflow. Flow endpoint operations are used only to implement custom authentication UIs. OIDC/OAuth 2 and SAML requests initiate the flow and redirect the browser to the custom authentication UI.

Flow status

In a sign-on workflow, the flow’s status property value returned by the last action identifies the appropriate next action in the authentication process. For example, if an action returns a USERNAME_PASSWORD_REQUIRED value in the status property, then the user is prompted to enter a username and password to continue the sign-on flow.

For more information about flow actions and flow status, refer to PingOne authentication flow states.
