Mobile Phone Option Added to Public Registration

The registrant's mobile phone number can now be captured during registration and when agency staff is managing public user accounts. Depending on your agency setup, a mobile number is needed to opt into multifactor authentication using a phone.

On the Register page, public users and agency staff registering on behalf of a public user, can select the phone type by clicking Mobile, Work, or Home. Mobile is the default phone type.

The phone type can also be added for a new phone number or updated on the Manage Account page for the public user's account.

This feature positions public users to use authentication from their mobile phone. 

Steps to Enable
