AuthenticatorAttestationResponse

This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.

When a WebAuthn authenticator creates a new PublicKeyCredential via a create() call, the PublicKeyCredential.response value will be an AuthenticatorAttestationResponse object. This object contains two properties: 1) a clientDataJSON property inherited from AuthenticatorResponse; and 2) an attestationObject that is an authenticator's way of providing a root of trust for the newly created keypair.

Properties

AuthenticatorAttestationResponse.clientDataJSON: Inherited from AuthenticatorResponse.clientDataJSON. Includes the client data for the authentication, such as origin and challenge.
AuthenticatorAttestationResponse.attestationObject: An authenticator's cryptographic attestation that a newly generated keypair was created by that authenticator.

Methods

None.

Examples

TBD
