🔐 Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
MFA adds a one-time verification code to your login for an extra layer of security. Whether it’s required, and how the code reaches you, is set by your organization’s admin.This is separate from signing in with a one-time code, which anyone can choose on the sign-in page instead of typing a password. That code is always emailed and expires in 15 minutes.
- Email code. A six-digit code is emailed to you. Enter it to finish signing in.
- Text message code. A six-digit code is texted to your phone. The first time, you’ll enter your mobile number with your country code in front. For U.S. numbers, that’s
+1before the area code (for example,+15551234567). - No code. If your organization doesn’t use MFA, you go straight in after signing in.
