Magical Auth Reference

To perform a Magical Auth 2FA verification you need to the following steps:

1. Initiate a 2FA verification session: This is done by sending a request from the user's device or from the backend by providing the user's phone number. The server will detect what verification channel the user is able to perform and initiate the verification process.
2. Verify the user: This is done by sending the verification code to the server to check if the user has successfully verified their phone number.

The Magical Auth service is available through the MagicalAuthClient through the GlideClient instance.

• OperationFailedError: Thrown when an operation cannot be completed successfully due to various issues, such as network problems or service unavailability.
