Two Factor Authentication

Sample code showing how to do two factor authentication using PowerBuilder

Thank you a lot Bruce,

I will try this workarounds,

George

Read the comments by Rob Stevens on the comment thread on the blog article. There are workarounds for the CopyLongToBytes and Blob functions that don't work the same in web PowerServer.

Dear Bruce,

Thank you for your great job! I used your twofactorauth.pbl and its objects work without any problems in C/S version of my application. However, when I deployed it as web application, your u_google_authenticator.generatepin() function began to return '000000' instead of real pin.

Is this a problem that can be fixed or your PBL cannot work in web applications?

Best regards,

George Mikhailovsky

Perhaps you could post your question with additional information about what you're trying to do in the forums.

Two factor authentication doesn't use any Google account apis. The only google api call I make at all is to a charting api to generate the QR code.

This has nothing to do with Google mail. If you're looking for code to send Google email from PowerBuilder I suggest you look at this code sample which does it through .Net called from PowerBuilder ( community.appeon.com/index.php/codeexcha...56-net-importer-demo ) or the PBNISMTP utility, which does it through PBNI ( github.com/bruce-armstrong/pbnismtp )

Hi Bruce.
Regarding two-factor authentication with Google, could you explain which Google web APIs to call to connect to a Google account?
Thank you

Hi,
can you implement this when you want to send emails from powerbuilder using google with smtp? Thanks a lot.

That's not how you use a .Net assembly from PowerBuilder. Please review the original article, because it indicates how you need to do it.

Better yet, just wait for 2019 R2. An enhancement in that version will allow you to consume a .Net assembly without having to do the plumbing required through the technique I provided in that article.
