Request for Clarification on "expiresAt" in IdxTransaction object

Questions API

We are implementing a password-optional signup flow and are analyzing the response we receive. During this process, we call the following method:

OktaAuth.idx.register()

{5B08AC75-714E-4EFA-93AD-2FDF5F19A399}
{5B08AC75-714E-4EFA-93AD-2FDF5F19A399}644×413 90.1 KB

Upon resolving, we observe a property called expiresAt, which contains a datetime value roughly 5 minutes after the API call is completed. We would appreciate more details about this property, as we are noticing behavior.

Here’s a summary of the flow:

  • Call the SDK function OktaAuth.idx.register().
  • User kept idle for 5 minutes. ( no SDK functions were triggered )
  • After 5 minutes, call the proceed function to verify the OTP.
const inputValues = {
   "verificationCode": "197277"
};

const newTransaction = await oktaAuth.idx.proceed(inputValues);

We then received an API response with the message “The session has expired.” Does the expiresAt property play a role in this behavior? If so, could you provide more insight into how it works?

Note: we are using Angular and Okta Auth JS SDK

Many Thanks,
