Ensure you have a password set

In order to see the option to set up two-factor authentication, you need to set a password. If you haven’t set a password yet, possibly because you created your account through signing in with Google or GitHub, you will not be able to follow along this guide.
Two-factor authentication requires a password to be set on your account. If you signed up using a social provider (Google or GitHub), you’ll need to set a password first from the Authentication settings page.

Enter your password

You will be asked to re-enter your password to authenticate that it’s really you. Enter your password and click continue.
This password verification step ensures that only authorized users can enable two-factor authentication on your account.

Scan the QR code

After entering your password, you should be shown a QR code. Scan it with your authenticator device and enter the 6-digit code that the app provides to continue.
Popular authenticator apps you can use include:
  • Google Authenticator - Available on iOS and Android
  • Microsoft Authenticator - Available on iOS and Android
  • Authy - Available on iOS, Android, and desktop
  • 1Password - Available on multiple platforms

You can also copy the secret key above the QR code and paste it into your authenticator app if you prefer manual entry.

Save your backup codes

Once verified, you’ll be prompted to save backup codes. You can use each code only once, and they’re useful if you ever happen to lose access to your authenticator device.
Make sure to copy and store these backup codes in a safe place. If you lose your authenticator device and don’t have backup codes, you may lose access to your account.

Sign in with 2FA

The next time you sign in, you will be asked for a one-time code from your authenticator app. Enter the 6-digit code displayed in your authenticator app to complete the sign-in process.
If you’ve lost access to your authenticator device, you can use one of your backup codes to sign in. Remember that each backup code can only be used once.
