Click on the icon in the top right-hand corner to access your Account Settings. From here, click Configure Multi-factor Authentication. You can either disable MFA or select the type of MFA you’d like to get started.

Email MFA

By default, Email MFA is already enabled for you! This means, if you ever need to log back in the Avanlee App, input a code from your email just like you did for verifying your account when you registered. If Email MFA is not selected, click Email MFA then Save.

Time-Based One-Time Password (TOTP) MFA

If you select Time-Based One-Time Password MFA (TOTP), you’ll need to have an Authentication app downloaded. From here, follow the steps to configure the MFA. You can find steps here for the authenticator app.

Scan the QR code into your authenticator app to set it up. Then, copy the code that your authentication app generates and paste it back into the Avanlee App. Click Save, and you’re all set!

Every time you log out and log back in, copy the code from your authenticator app and paste it in the verification section of the Avanlee App.
