Formsite 2FA: How to Set Up an Authenticator App

formsite.com Supported

Enable two-factor authentication on Formsite to stop unauthorized logins. After setup, Formsite asks for a rotating code from Authenticator App - Novaz in addition to your password.

A Formsite account can expose source code, deploy keys, and infrastructure — prime targets for attackers. Formsite secures sign-ins with an authenticator app — set it up once and you're protected on every login.

2FA methods Formsite supports

  • Authenticator app (TOTP)
  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 Formsite's QR code and generate your 6-digit sign-in codes.

    Download on the App Store
  2. 2

    Sign in to Formsite and open your Formsite 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 Formsite 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 Formsite account.

  6. 6

    Save a way to recover your account.

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

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

How to recover your Formsite account

If you lose access to your authenticator and Formsite 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 Formsite doesn't, or you didn't save them, use Formsite's account-recovery or support process (or ask your admin, for a work account) to get back in.
