With Flex, you have a minimal configuration file installed through a Flex Recipe. You must set the repositories you have just created. You also have to modify the environment variables Relying_PARTY_ID and Relying_PARTY_NAME.
You may also need to adjust other parameters.
If you don’t use Flex, hereafter an example of configuration file:
config/packages/webauthn.yaml
webauthn:
# logger: null # PSR-3 compatible logging service
credential_repository: 'Webauthn\Bundle\Repository\DummyPublicKeyCredentialSourceRepository' # CREATE YOUR REPOSITORY AND CHANGE THIS!
user_repository: 'Webauthn\Bundle\Repository\DummyPublicKeyCredentialUserEntityRepository' # CREATE YOUR REPOSITORY AND CHANGE THIS!
token_binding_support_handler: 'Webauthn\TokenBinding\IgnoreTokenBindingHandler' # We ignore the token binding instructions by default
creation_profiles: # Authenticator registration profiles
default: # Unique name of the profile
rp: # Relying Party information

Creation Profiles
If you don't create the creation_profiles section, a default profile is set.
Relying Party (rp)
The parameter id is optional but highly recommended.
Challenge Length
By default, the length of the challenge is 32 bytes. You may need to select a smaller or higher length. This length can be configured for each profile:
This option indicates the algorithms allowed for your application. By default, a large list of algorithms is defined, but you can add custom algorithms or reduce the list.
The order is important. Preferred algorithms go first.
It is not recommended changing the default list unless you exactly know what you are doing.
webauthn:
creation_profiles:
acme:
rp:
name: 'ACME Webauthn Server'
extensions:
loc: true
txAuthSimple: 'Please add your new authenticator'
Request Profiles
If you don't create the creation_profiles section, a default profile is set.
The parameters for the request profiles (i.e. the authentication) are very similar to the creation profiles. The only difference is that you don’t need all the detail of the Relying Party, but only its ID (i.e. its domain).
Please note that all parameters are optional. The following configuration is perfectly valid. However, and as mentioned above, the parameter id is highly recommended.
The relying Party corresponds to your application. Please refer for more information.
This set of options allows you to select authenticators depending on their capabilities. The values are described in of the protocol.
If you need the , you can specify the preference regarding attestation conveyance during credential generation.
You can set as many extensions as you want in the profile. Please also for more information.
The example below is totally fictive. Some extensions are but the support depends on the authenticators, on the browsers and on the relying parties (your applications).
