How to enable multi-factor authentication using TOTP

Recommend TOTP application provided by Microsoft and Google but if you have an existing one that you trust you then you can use it as well.

We support Time Based One Time passwords, e.g. TOTP.
It is a standard thing. Customers need any software authenticator that supports TOTP.
Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator, FreeOTP, etc. to use this feature.


Go to Preferences -> General Tab -> Security -> Multifactor authentication policy for the account.
There is a drop-down list with three options:

  1. Disabled: This is the default, set for all accounts right now. Everything works without 2FA.
  2. Allowed: 2FA is allowed, account admin can configure it for herself, then disable if needed.
  3. Enforced: 2FA is forcibly enabled for the whole account if account admin didn’t configure it for herself yet – she is redirected to set sequence right after login.
