Hi All,

Has anyone ever explored getting types of TFA information that users in Gsuite are using? I can see from the Reports API that some commands are there


But with limited knowledge of transposing this into GAM im at a loss.  Ideally we would like to pull a list of users that use Google Athenticator or the type of TFA everyone uses.

Help as always would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Ah, I see now. No, there's no way to tell if the user is using Google Authenticator, Microsoft's app, Authy or something else. The user just scans the code which configures the TOTP, nothing is reported back to Google in terms of which app they use.

What's the use case here? Usually you just want to know if user is using SMS / Phone auth (least secure), Google Authenticator (TOTP), Google Push or Security Key (most secure).

Hi Jay,

Yes, that’s exactly the use case. We are trying to find out if a user is using Push, Yubikey, Smartlock or Authenticator (or a combination of the above)  Is that possible?

Thanks,
