Two-factor authentication (2FA) adds a second step to your sign-in: besides your password you enter a code from an app on your phone.

Who can do this: everyone with an account. Your organization can also make 2FA mandatory for all members.

  1. Install an authenticator app on your phone, for example Google Authenticator or Authy.
  2. Open the user menu, click Settings and open the tab Security. It shows Two-factor authentication is off. Security tab
  3. Click Enable Two Factor Authentication. On Set Up Two-Factor Authentication, click Begin Setup.
  4. On Scan QR Code, scan the code with your app. If scanning does not work, type the code shown under Or enter this code manually: into the app.
  5. Enter the 6-digit code from the app under Verification Code and click Verify. You see 2FA enabled; your profile now shows Secured with two-factor.
  6. From now on, after your password you see Two-Factor Authentication: enter the current 6-digit code from the app and click Verify.

Good to know

  • The code changes every 30 seconds. If you see Verification failed, wait for a new code and try again.
  • The 2FA screens are currently only in English.
  • If you lose your phone, ask your administrator for help.
