Another computer-readable storage medium comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed by at least one processor, perform a method is also described herein. The method may include steps for providing a composable user journey for user authentication, according to an identity experience framework, as described herein. The method may be implemented by a computing system that embodies or accepts the computer-readable storage medium. The computing system may interact with a multi-sided identity experience framework configured to support a plurality of remote identity operators, a plurality of remote verification providers, and a plurality of remote application service providers for user authentication to applications. In an embodiment, the method includes generating and providing a call to an identity policy host, the call indicating or specifying an identity policy, that is one of a plurality of identity policies, for dynamic deployment of a verification user interface (UI) for the application, and receiving the verification UI, or an identifier thereof, responsive to the call. The method also includes displaying the verification UI associated with the identity policy, and generating and providing a token request and an identity claim of a user responsive to a first user interaction that is with the verification UI. The method further includes receiving the token responsive to providing to the token request, and consuming a token from the identity policy host subsequent to generating the token request to allow access by the user to at least one feature of the application.
