How to enable 2FA on Rivian
Enable two-factor authentication on Rivian to stop unauthorized logins. After setup, Rivian asks for a rotating code from MS Authenticator App in addition to your password.
Step-by-step setup
- 1
Sign in to Rivian and open your Rivian account security settings.

Turn on two-factor authentication and choose the authenticator-app option.

Open MS Authenticator App, tap add, and point your camera at the QR code Rivian displays. Can't scan? Enter the setup key manually instead.

Enter the 6-digit code to confirm.
Type the code MS Authenticator App generates to verify and link your Rivian account.
