Hi Team,

I want to remove the Factors associated to a user using OKTA SDK in .net.

Do you have any methods to achieve the same, please help me with the same.

Check out the UnenrollFactor method, as documented here: okta-sdk-dotnet/docs/UserFactorApi.md at master · okta/okta-sdk-dotnet · GitHub

HI @andrea ,

It doesn’t suit for my solution as am using Okta.Auth.Sdk for .Net in my solution and I really can’t alter the whole solution for the same. Please help me with other ways to un enroll the factor in Okta.Auth.Sdk which would help me.

Please find below for reference of Auth SDK which I used which has the Unenroll factor missing,

              throw new NotImplementedException("This flow has not been implemented yet.");
          }
          
          public ActionResult EnrollSms()
          {
              return View();
          }
          
          [HttpPost]
          [ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
          public async Task<ActionResult> EnrollSmsAsync(EnrollSmsViewModel model)
          {
              if (!ModelState.IsValid)
              {
                  return View("EnrollSms", model);
              }
          
              var enrollOptions = new EnrollSmsFactorOptions()
              {
                  PhoneNumber = model.PhoneNumber,
                  StateToken = Session["stateToken"].ToString(),

I don’t believe the Auth SDK supports this option as it requires a management API call (to /users) instead of one made to /authn, which doesn’t support un-enrollment of factors.

If you’re unwilling/unable to use the full Management SDK, you could look to use the option with the Auth SDK to call other API endpoints,
