How to set up or enable two-factor authentication (2FA) for Atlassian Cloud

To keep your Atlassian Cloud account secure, enable two-factor authentication (2FA). This page explains how Atlassian Cloud 2FA works, which methods Atlassian Cloud supports, and how to protect and recover your account. The most secure option is an authenticator app: store your Atlassian Cloud 2FA codes in MS Authenticator App and generate a fresh 6-digit code every time you sign in.

2FA methods Atlassian Cloud supports

  • SMS text message
  • Authenticator app (TOTP)
  • Security key (U2F / WebAuthn)

An authenticator app (TOTP) is the sweet spot: free, offline, and not vulnerable to SIM-swap attacks like SMS.
