HashiCorp Terraform Enterprise 2FA Setup Guide

app.terraform.io Supported

HashiCorp Terraform Enterprise lets you secure your account with an authenticator app. With 2FA on, each login needs a fresh 6-digit code, keeping your HashiCorp Terraform Enterprise account safe even if your password leaks.

A HashiCorp Terraform Enterprise account can expose source code, deploy keys, and infrastructure — prime targets for attackers. Besides an authenticator app, HashiCorp Terraform Enterprise also offers SMS text codes. An authenticator app (TOTP) is usually the best balance of security and convenience — and it's safer than SMS codes, which can be intercepted through SIM-swap attacks.

2FA methods HashiCorp Terraform Enterprise supports

  • SMS text message
  • 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 HashiCorp Terraform Enterprise's QR code and generate your 6-digit sign-in codes.

    Scan the QR code with Authenticator App - Novaz.

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

  6. 6

    Save a way to recover your account.

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

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

How to recover your HashiCorp Terraform Enterprise account

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