Dispatch Target

A dispatch target represents a channel to which messages can be sent. It is used in the context of push-based authentication and authorization methods, for example, to send push notifications to users' devices. A dispatch target is associated with a user and is be linked to credentials (for example FIDO UAF) that use the dispatch target for communication.

A user can have multiple dispatch targets, for example, if the user has multiple devices. Each device can be registered as multpe dispatch targets, for example, if the user has multiple applications on the same device that use push-based communication. Each dispatch target is associated with exactly one application, which is used to scope the dispatch target to a specific application context.

Optionally a dispatch target can be linked to a App Attestation.
