Hello,
I'm currently trying my hand at SAML authentication with FortiAuthenticator in conjunction with FIDO keys.
- I can successfully import a Fido key for a local user
- FQDN of the authenticator is identical to the SAML FQDN
- Certificates are valid
- SAML Login with Username/Passwort is working
- SAML ServiceProviders to FortiAnlayzer and FortiMail
But as soon as I say in the SAML SP settings that it should authenticate via FIDO, “Error occurred during Fido Authentication” is displayed after entering the user name.
No error in the FortiAuth-Event Log - just "
Local user authentication partially done, expecting fido token |
FortiAuth Version 6.6.2
The strange thing is that I had the SAML login with FIDO running until a few days ago, then I changed the FQDN name of FortiAuth again - since then it no longer works. However, I have adjusted and assigned all the certificates.

Ensure “Enable FIDO2 authentication” is ON

Thanks all - i simple reboot of the FortiAuthenticator solved my problem. Seems like some service got confused with the certificate change.
