Advanced settings
- Do not store ID information in the credential(Non-discoverable Credential)
When this setting is turned on, ID information is not recorded in the authenticator, so you must enter your ID (administrator’s e-mail address) when logging in.
Turn on if you do not want to store ID information in the passkey. The default setting is off.
Depending on the passkey provider for synchronized passkeys, this setting may be registered as a discoverable credential even if it is turned on.

Types of passkeys
The usage method varies depending on the OS and browser, but in most cases, the following usage methods are available.
-
Internal authenticator of the device you are using
The passkey is stored inside the device you are using (such as a PC). This is called a platform authenticator.
During registration and authentication, you will be asked to authenticate using the authentication mechanism (such as a fingerprint sensor) built into the device, or by entering a PIN.
Depending on the OS and browser implementation, the passkey may be stored as a synchronized passkey using an account provided by the OS vendor (e.g., Apple Account, Google Account). -
Security key
The passkey is stored within a security key provided by various security vendors. This is also referred to as a cross-platform authenticator or roaming authenticator.
During registration and authentication, you will be prompted to authenticate using the fingerprint sensor built into the security key or via PIN authentication.
While USB-connected devices are the mainstream option, there are also devices that connect to the device using BLE or NFC. -
Smartphone/Tablet
Passkeys are stored on a smartphone or tablet other than the device being used. This is called hybrid authentication.
During registration and authentication, a QR code displayed on the device being used is scanned with a smartphone to store the passkey on the smartphone.
Authentication is required using the authentication mechanism built into the smartphone (fingerprint sensor, face recognition, etc.) or a PIN.
Depending on the implementation of the smartphone OS, the passkey may be stored as a synchronized passkey using an account provided by the OS vendor (e.g., Apple Account, Google Account). -
Passkey Provider
If you are using a service that provides synchronized passkeys, you can store the passkey in the account of that service.
For more details, please refer to the manual of each passkey provider service.
