GetBioModality Method

GetBioModality()

Get the biometric method the YubiKey uses. If the YubiKey is not a Bio series device, this will return "None".

C#

public BioModality GetBioModality()

Returns

BioModality

A BioModality value, indicating the biometric method or else "None" for non-Bio series devices.

Remarks

Note that the UvModality property also indicates the modality. It is defined as a bit field with the specific bits defined in the FIDO standard's Registry of Predefined Values, section 3.1. For example, in that bit field, the bit in position 1 (the integer 2) is defined as USER_VERIFY_FINGERPRINT_INTERNAL.
