An administrator must set up a way to authenticate users via SMS using a randomly generated passcode. Which two nodes in Webex Connect are needed to…

To implement SMS-based One-Time Password (OTP) authentication, a two-step process is required within a Webex Connect flow. First, a secure, random passcode must be generated. The Generate OTP node is specifically designed for this purpose, creating a unique code and managing its validity. Second, this generated code must be delivered to the user's mobile device. The SMS node is used to send messages over the SMS channel, making it the necessary component to transmit the OTP to the end-user for verification.

A. Profile node: This node is used to create or update user profiles with attributes, not for generating or sending temporary passcodes.

C. Data Parser node: This node extracts information from structured data formats like JSON or XML; it does not generate random codes.

E. Evaluate node: This node provides conditional branching (if/else logic) within a flow based on variable values, but it does not perform OTP generation.

which is required to deliver the generated OTP.
