Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)

Multi-factor authentication adds an extra layer of security to your account by requiring a verification code in addition to your password when signing in.

note

MFA is an enterprise feature. An active enterprise license is required.

Supported Methods​

Docmost supports Time-based One-Time Password (TOTP) for multi-factor authentication. TOTP works with authenticator apps such as:

  • Google Authenticator
  • Authy
  • Microsoft Authenticator
  • 1Password
  • Any TOTP-compatible app

Setting Up MFA​

  2. Under 2-step verification, click Add 2FA method.
  3. Scan the QR code with your authenticator app, or enter the setup key manually.
  4. Enter the verification code generated by your authenticator app to confirm setup.

Once enabled, you will be required to enter a TOTP code from your authenticator app each time you sign in.

Disabling MFA​

To disable multi-factor authentication:

  1. Go to Settings > Profile.
  2. Under 2-step verification, remove your configured 2FA method.
