Doppler 2FA: How to Set Up an Authenticator App

doppler.com Supported

Doppler supports app-based two-factor authentication (2FA). Turning it on adds a second layer of protection, so a stolen password alone can't unlock your Doppler account.

A Doppler account can expose source code, deploy keys, and infrastructure — prime targets for attackers. Besides an authenticator app, Doppler also offers email codes and security keys. An authenticator app (TOTP) is usually the best balance of security and convenience. For the strongest protection, Doppler also supports hardware security keys.

2FA methods Doppler supports

  • Email code
  • Authenticator app (TOTP)
  • Security key (U2F / WebAuthn)
  1. 1

    Download Authenticator App - Novaz

    Install Authenticator App - Novaz from the App Store on your iPhone or iPad and open it — you'll use it to scan Doppler's QR code and generate your 6-digit sign-in codes.

    Download on the App Store
  2. 2

    Sign in to Doppler and open your Doppler account security settings.

  3. 3

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

    Look for "Authenticator app", "Authentication app", or "TOTP" rather than SMS.

  4. 4

    Scan the QR code with Authenticator App - Novaz.

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

  5. 5

    Enter the 6-digit code to confirm.

    Type the code Authenticator App - Novaz generates to verify and link your Doppler account.

  6. 6

    Save a way to recover your account.

    If Doppler shows backup or recovery codes, store them somewhere safe, away from your phone. If it doesn't, check how Doppler recovers accounts (support, an admin, or another sign-in method) before you need it.

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

How to recover your Doppler account

If you lose access to your authenticator and Doppler gave you backup or recovery codes when you turned on 2FA, sign in with one of them; keep them somewhere safe, away from your phone. Not every service issues codes. If Doppler doesn't, or you didn't save them, use Doppler's account-recovery or support process (or ask your admin, for a work account) to get back in.
