We want to go UI less, Mobile App less, api interface way that we consume by passing it QR code and other stuff and it register us on Google Authenticator.

Similarly some google api to Verify the TOTP code for us UI less way?

I don't understand at all. Could you clarify?

Instead of Mobile application user open Google Authenticator App on his/ her mobile and scan the QR code generated by our application we want this api way. This way user would stay in our App and api will Register him in Google Authenticator

Ah, I see.

So you have an app (iPhone? Android?), that provisions users. And you want to be able to add configs to the GA app.

Sounds like a useful feature. There's not much action on the opensource version of the apps though. Pasting standard reply below.

FYI: The version in Google Play Store / Apple App store is not the same as this opensource version. They've diverged. This opensource version is also unlikely to end up in the app stores. This open source version doesn't get much love, but I'll accept well-written pull requests. But don't expect this feature to be implemented by Google.
