How to reset 2FA if I've lost/changed my device with the Authenticator application

Updated over a month ago

To reset 2FA in ApprovalMax if you've lost or changed your device with the Authenticator application, follow these steps:


1. Use the alternative 2FA option for verification: either the code sent to your alternative email address or the backup codes generated during the initial 2FA setup process.
​
2. Once successfully verified, you can disable 2FA for your account using the same verification method as mentioned above.
​
3. Next, you can enable 2FA for your account again from scratch:

  • Download an Authenticator app

  • Scan the QR code in ApprovalMax or enter it manually in your Authenticator app, following the instructions provided.

​Please note: If the 2FA hard enforcement is applied in your Organisation, you cannot perform any actions before setting 2FA for your account again.
