How to enable 2FA on AppSignal

← AppSignal overview Supported

Protect your AppSignal account with two-factor authentication (2FA). Once enabled, signing in also requires a one-time code from your authenticator app — not just your password.

Step-by-step setup

1
Sign in to AppSignal and open your AppSignal account security settings.
2
Turn on two-factor authentication and choose the authenticator-app option.
Look for "Authenticator app", "Authentication app", or "TOTP" rather than SMS.
3
Scan the QR code with MS Authenticator App.
Open MS Authenticator App, tap add, and point your camera at the QR code AppSignal displays. Can't scan? Enter the setup key manually instead.
4
Enter the 6-digit code to confirm.
Type the code MS Authenticator App generates to verify and link your AppSignal account.
5
Save your backup codes.
Store the recovery codes AppSignal gives you somewhere safe — you'll need them if you lose your phone.

Menu names on AppSignal can change — the official AppSignal 2FA documentation ↗ always has the exact, current path.
