# Import Passkeys API API documentation for the FusionAuth Import Passkeys API. > For the index of this section of the site, see [llms.txt](https://fusionauth.io/docs/llms.txt) This API is used to bulk import multiple passkeys into FusionAuth. Reasonable defaults are provided for optional fields. This request is useful for migrating data from an existing database into FusionAuth. ## Request [API Key Authentication](https://fusionauth.io/docs/apis/authentication.md#api-key-authentication) Import Multiple Passkeys `POST /api/webauthn/import` #### Request Headers `X-FusionAuth-TenantId` * String * optional The unique Id of the tenant used to scope this API request. The tenant Id is not required on this request when only one tenant has been configured. If there is more than one tenant, the tenant Id is required. Supply the tenant Id via this header or by using an API Key scoped to a tenant, which implicitly supplies the tenant Id. See [Making an API request using a Tenant Id](https://fusionauth.io/docs/apis/authentication.md#making-an-api-request-using-a-tenant-id) for additional information. ### Request Body `credentials` * Array * required The list of passkeys to import. `credentials[x].algorithm` * Long * required The identifier for the signing algorithm used with the passkey. These values are defined by the [IANA COSE Algorithms registry](https://www.iana.org/assignments/cose/cose.xhtml). FusionAuth supports a subset of these algorithms. *Supported algorithms* | Name | Value | Description | | --- | --- | --- | | RS256 | \-257 | RSASSA-PKCS1-v1\_5 using SHA-256 | | RS384 | \-258 | RSASSA-PKCS1-v1\_5 using SHA-384 | | RS512 | \-259 | RSASSA-PKCS1-v1\_5 using SHA-512 | | PS256 | \-37 | RSASSA-PSS w/ SHA-256 | | PS384 | \-38 | RSASSA-PSS w/ SHA-384 | | PS512 | \-39 | RSASSA-PSS w/ SHA-512 | | ES256 | \-7 | ECDSA w/ SHA-256 | | ES384 | \-35 | ECDSA w/ SHA-384 | | ES512 | \-36 | ECDSA w/ SHA-512 | `credentials[x].attestationType` * String * optional * Defaults to none The attestation type provided when the passkey was registered. FusionAuth doesn't validate the attestation on import. Supported values are: * `anonymization-ca` * `attestation-ca` * `basic` * `none` * `self` Passkeys registered in FusionAuth currently only support the `none` option, but another value can be supplied during passkey import. `credentials[x].authenticatorSupportsUserVerification` * Boolean * optional * Defaults to false Indicates whether this authenticator supports user verification. User verification ensures that the user is authorized to use the authenticator. `credentials[x].credentialId` * String * required The credential Id generated by the authenticator is stored as a base64url-encoded string. This value is used by authenticators to look up a passkey during an authentication ceremony. `credentials[x].data` * Object * optional An object that can hold any information about the passkey that should be persisted. `credentials[x].discoverable` * Boolean * optional * Defaults to false Indicates whether the passkey is "client-side discoverable." Discoverable passkeys can be used in authentication ceremonies without first identifying the user (e.g. by requiring the user to provide their username). `credentials[x].displayName` * String * required The display name for the passkey. `credentials[x].id` * UUID * optional * Defaults to secure random UUID The Id of the passkey. If not specified a secure random UUID will be generated. `credentials[x].insertInstant` * Long * optional * Defaults to now The [instant](https://fusionauth.io/docs/reference/data-types.md#instants) when the passkey was created. `credentials[x].lastUseInstant` * Long * optional * Defaults to now The [instant](https://fusionauth.io/docs/reference/data-types.md#instants) when the passkey was last used. `credentials[x].name` * String * required A unique name meant to disambiguate passkeys with the same **credential.displayName**. Prior to version `1.42.0` this field was optional. `credentials[x].publicKey` * String * required The passkey's public key, encoded in PEM format. `credentials[x].relyingPartyId` * String * required The Relying Party Id used at the time the passkey was registered. > **CAUTION:** This value **must** match the `rpId` value when the passkey was created, *and* the browser origin during WebAuthn authentication in FusionAuth must be compatible with that Relying Party Id. `credentials[x].signCount` * Integer * optional * Defaults to 0 The last known signature count for the passkey. `credentials[x].transports` * Array * optional A list of transport types supported by the authenticator that generated the passkey. This value is used as a hint during the WebAuthn authentication ceremony to help identify eligible authenticators. FusionAuth treats the list of transports as strings to maximize authenticator compatibility. These values are used as hints during WebAuthn ceremonies and missing, extra, or unexpected values should not cause a ceremony to fail. Some common values are: * `internal` - the authenticator is integrated with the client device * `usb` - the authenticator can be contacted over USB * `nfc` - the authenticator can be contacted over Near Field Communication (NFC) * `ble` - the authenticator can be contacted over Bluetooth Smart (Bluetooth Low Energy, or BLE) * `cable` - "cloud-assisted" BLE. This transport is used for Android devices acting as an authenticator connected to the computer over Bluetooth * `hybrid` - replacement for the `cable` transport The default value is the empty set, which means that no hints are provided. This does not negatively impact the authentication ceremony. `credentials[x].userAgent` * String * optional The user agent at the time the passkey was registered. This can be useful for troubleshooting WebAuthn passkey issues. `credentials[x].userId` * UUID * required The Id of the user to which this passkey belongs. `validateDbConstraints` * Boolean * optional * Defaults to false Set this value to `true` in order to perform additional validation of the request. The import request is intended to be used to migrate existing users' passkeys from one system to another, this means FusionAuth expects all user Ids from the request to exist for the provided tenant. If a non-existent user Id is encountered a `500` will be returned unless this field is set to `true`. In order to get additional details about database constraint violations on import, set this value to `true` and a `400` response will be returned with a JSON body indicating the missing values encountered. Setting this value to `true` will dramatically decrease the performance of this request. If importing large numbers of passkeys in a single request you may need to increase request timeouts to ensure this request does not timeout before it has completed. *Example Request JSON* ```json { "credentials": [ { "algorithm": -7, "credentialId": "vBD52q2FMMM-zxaO-ZMgrN3ewjbmb0ra5E-QCX_3kz0", "displayName": "YubiKey", "name": "richard@fusionauth.io", "publicKey": "-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----\nMFkwEwYHKoZIzj0CAQYIKoZIzj0DAQcDQgAEz9DI9AQfZn1aDJG5sw3Ckl7SoQ7E\nLPElDoJMijphvVigTcNMTc8H9Xptl8B20QHMOXGTzaUxLGNY1c8yhw9VVA==\n-----END PUBLIC KEY-----", "relyingPartyId": "piedpiper.com", "userId": "703fe2d2-2d39-4cb7-b76d-0b9918ed2457" }, { "algorithm": -7, "attestationType": "none", "authenticatorSupportsUserVerification": true, "credentialId": "HdN9wqP9mqOonacmiM2gIjASFYg", "data": {}, "displayName": "Chrome Touch ID", "name": "richard@fusionauth.io", "id": "c664318a-2384-4c35-9475-9a200e1d3b72", "insertInstant": 1668011701792, "discoverable": false, "lastUseInstant": 1668021630599, "publicKey": "-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----\nMFkwEwYHKoZIzj0CAQYIKoZIzj0DAQcDQgAEz9DI9AQfZn1aDJG5sw3Ckl7SoQ7E\nLPElDoJMijphvVigTcNMTc8H9Xptl8B20QHMOXGTzaUxLGNY1c8yhw9VVA==\n-----END PUBLIC KEY-----", "relyingPartyId": "piedpiper.com", "signCount": 41, "transports": [ "internal" ], "userId": "703fe2d2-2d39-4cb7-b76d-0b9918ed2457" } ] } ``` ## Response Only a status code is available on the Import API, no JSON body will be returned. *Response Codes* | Code | Description | | --- | --- | | 200 | The request was successful.
