The expectation is to have a feature in MS Authenticator that will let our tech team to invoke an On-Demand Push Notification to partners as a Security Validation to verify if the person on the other end of the call is actually the one who he/she is claiming to be. Similar feature is offered on DUO, OKTA and other 2 factor authentication applications.

The feature to invoke the On-Demand Push Notification will be housed in the Entra Portal or Azure Portal.

    @Akhil R Kumar Apologies for the delayed response, As I understand you are looking for a on-demand push notification feature within the authenticator app, as far i am aware end user from his security info page he can send the notification and test the functionality, however as a Global admin of the Microsoft Entra ID Portal, on behalf of the user admin cant verify the push notification capability.
