Push Authentication Settings
Configure Push Authentication from the Descope console (Settings > Authentication Methods > Push).
Enable Method in API and SDK
The Enable method in API and SDK toggle controls whether Password authentication can be invoked programmatically via APIs and SDKs.
- When enabled: Authentication works via flows, APIs, and SDKs
- When disabled: Authentication only works with flows or calls made with a valid management key
