About this task

Users generate a six-digit code for the app PIN. The PIN must be entered when they log in to an instance from their mobile device, or after the application has been inactive for more than five minutes. If your users have faceID, touchID, or similar biometric security configured on their phone, they can use biometric authentication in place of the PIN.
