SMS-MT- or SMTP-OTP grant use cases are extensions to OAuth2. Both use unregistered authentication method, either for SMS or for SMTP.

Client wants to get an access- or id token, and to have that SSO needs to be called twice. First to initiate the authentication process, client needs to obtain the reference to the one time password sent to the user by SMS or email, and second time to validate the otp the user has entered/sent to client.

Note that message (sms or smtp) title and body can be set as request parameters, or if omitted, use default configuration (uas.properties, or localized uas.properties file).
