Hello,
Assuming you are using the latest version of the IDX sdk

Have you checked if the following would meet your needs:
https://okta.github.io/okta-mobile-swift/development/authfoundation/documentation/authfoundation/credential
https://okta.github.io/okta-mobile-swift/development/authfoundation/documentation/authfoundation/credential/security/

So when storing credentials you can do something like:

try Credential.store(token,
                     tags: ["displayName": "My User"],
                     security: [
                         .accessibility(.afterFirstUnlock),
                         .accessControl(.biometryAny),
                         .accessGroup("com.example.myApp.shared")
                     ])

If more advanced cases are needed custom TokenStorage and CredentialDataSources can be implemented.

@erik I followed these exact steps and got the error cannotSave(code: -50) when setting up like specified. What types of issues would cause an error like this? I had previously revoked and removed my Credential’s default token. I also had biometrics setup in the app prior for the info.plist contains permissions to prompt the user for privacy sake.
