Backup/Restore Device

Key Steps

  • The user generates a backup code on the TrustFactorApp on their current device.
  • The TrustFactorApp encrypts the contract private keys and securely stores them in the TrustFactor Cloud.
  • When the user wants to recover the contracts on a new device, they enter the backup code on the TrustFactorApp.
  • The TrustFactorApp requests the encrypted contract private keys from the TrustFactorAPI using the backup code.
  • The TrustFactorAPI provides the encrypted contract private keys to the TrustFactorApp.
  • The TrustFactorApp decrypts the contract private keys using the backup code.
  • The TrustFactorApp informs the TrustFactorAPI of the new device association.
  • The TrustFactorAPI notifies the application of the new association through a callback.
  • The application responds with a 2xx HTTP code to confirm the contract recovery.
  • The TrustFactorAPI sends a success response to the TrustFactorApp.
  • The TrustFactorApp displays a success message to the user.
