MfaWebAuthnPlatformEnrollment: missing tryAnotherMethod / PICK_AUTHENTICATOR action

Hello,

I’m looking for guidance (or to flag a possible gap) on the @auth0/auth0-acul-js SDK (v1.3.0) for the mfa-webauthn-platform-enrollment screen.

We’re building a custom Universal Login screen using @acul/auth0-acul-react/mfa-webauthn-platform-enrollment. The design includes a “Try another method” button so users who don’t want to enroll a platform authenticator can pick a different MFA factor (SMS, OTP, etc.).

I’ve found that sibling enrollment screens expose a tryAnotherMethod action that maps to the PICK_AUTHENTICATOR action on the server and redirects the user back to the factor selection screen.

For example:

- MfaWebAuthnRoamingEnrollment -> tryAnotherMethod()
- MfaOtpEnrollmentQr -> tryAnotherMethod()
- MfaPhoneEnrollment -> tryAnotherMethod()
- MfaSmsChallenge -> tryAnotherMethod()
- MfaWebAuthnError -> tryAnotherMethod()

However, MfaWebAuthnPlatformEnrollment only exposes:

- submitPasskeyCredential()
- reportBrowserError()
- snoozeEnrollment() -> SNOOZE_ENROLLMENT
- refuseEnrollmentOnThisDevice() -> REFUSE_ADD_DEVICE

The closest action is snoozeEnrollment, but that defers the enrollment prompt rather than navigating the user to the factor picker, so it doesn’t satisfy a “Try another method” use case.

Is the omission of tryAnotherMethod / PICK_AUTHENTICATOR on MfaWebAuthnPlatformEnrollment intentional? If so, what’s the recommended way to let users switch to a different MFA factor from this screen?

If not intentional, can support for PICK_AUTHENTICATOR be added to this screen’s SDK to match the other enrollment screens?

Thank you!
