Two-Factor Authentication Screen

Two-factor authentication is time-based and requires a correct system time setting.

The Two-Factor Authentication screen, accessed from the Settings menu on the top toolbar, displays user-level two-factor authentication (2FA) settings. The screen shows a different message if 2FA is enabled than when not configured or disabled.

This screen allows users to configure, renew, or remove their individual 2FA secrets.

Global 2FA settings are configured on the Advanced Settings screen. For more information, see the Managing Global 2FA tutorial.
