Openprovider 2FA: How to Set Up an Authenticator App

openprovider.com Supported

Openprovider 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 Openprovider account.

Whoever controls your Openprovider account controls your domains, so 2FA keeps them from being stolen. Openprovider secures sign-ins with an authenticator app — set it up once and you're protected on every login.

2FA methods Openprovider 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 Openprovider's QR code and generate your 6-digit sign-in codes.

    Download on the App Store
  2. 2

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

  6. 6

    Save a way to recover your account.

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

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

How to recover your Openprovider account

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