Two-Factor Authentication

Add a one-time code from an authenticator app on top of your password. Two-factor auth is set per account.

Turn it on

1. Open Account settings.
2. Go to TWO-FACTOR AUTH.
3. Select SET UP TWO-FACTOR AUTH.
4. Scan the QR code with an authenticator app such as Google Authenticator, 1Password, or Authy. If you cannot scan it, enter the SETUP KEY by hand instead.
5. Enter the current 6-DIGIT CODE.
6. Select VERIFY & ENABLE.

Recovery codes

After enabling, ContextOwl shows recovery codes once. Select COPY CODES and store them somewhere safe. Each code works once if you lose your authenticator. Use REGENERATE RECOVERY CODES to replace them.

Turn it off

In TWO-FACTOR AUTH, enter your PASSWORD and an AUTHENTICATOR OR RECOVERY CODE, then select DISABLE 2FA.

Require it for admins

Admins can require two-factor auth for the whole organization. Open Admin > Settings > Security and turn on Require two-factor auth for admins. If you sign in with Google or GitHub, add a password through password reset first, then enroll.
