Mobile Push notifications are a really convenient and trendy method to perform 2FA. When 2FA is required Authelia sends a notification directly to an application on your mobile phone where you can instantly choose to accept or deny.
Authelia leverages Duo third party to provide this feature.

First, sign up on their website, log in, create a user account and attach it a mobile device. Beware that the name of the user must match the name of the user in Authelia, or must have an alias that matches the user in Authelia.
Then, in Duo interface, click on Applications and Protect an Application. Select the option Partner Auth API. This will generate an integration key, a secret key and a hostname. You can set the name of the application to Authelia and then you must add the generated information to Authelia configuration as shown below:
duo_api:
hostname: api-123456789.example.com
integration_key: ABCDEF
secret_key: 1234567890abcdefghifjkl
See the configuration documentation for more details.
Now that Authelia is configured, pass the first factor and select the Push notification option.
