OneLogin 2FA: How to Set Up an Authenticator App
Enable two-factor authentication on OneLogin to stop unauthorized logins. After setup, OneLogin asks for a rotating code from Authenticator App - Novaz in addition to your password.
A OneLogin account is part of your security setup, so it deserves strong 2FA of its own. Besides an authenticator app, OneLogin also offers a proprietary app, SMS text codes, a hardware token and security keys. 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. For the strongest protection, OneLogin also supports hardware security keys.

Save a way to recover your account.

Menu names on OneLogin can change — the official OneLogin 2FA documentation ↗ always has the exact, current path.
How to recover your OneLogin account
If you lose access to your authenticator and OneLogin 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 OneLogin doesn't, or you didn't save them, use OneLogin's account-recovery or support process (or ask your admin, for a work account) to get back in.
