Disclosed are various embodiments for providing a native authentication experience with failover. A network service authenticates a first application executed in a computing device in a first instance using one or more authentication factors received via a platform-specific application programming interface that is native to the computing device. After a change to how authentication is performed by the network service, the network service authenticates the first application in a second instance via code-based linking with a second application that is authenticated.

Native authentication experience with failover

Disclosed are various embodiments for providing a native authentication experience with failover. If a particular authentication approach is supported by a network service, an application authenticates with the network service according to the authentication approach using an authentication factor received via a platform-specific interface. If the particular authentication approach is not supported, code-based linking may be employed to authenticate via another application that is authenticated with the network service.
