You can use one of the two methods of MFA in your vStor instance:
Authentication App (like Microsoft Authenticator)
One Time E-mail Password
Attention! E-mail password authentication cannot be recovered. We recommend you use an authentication app.
To connect an authentication app to vStor, scan the QR code or manually enter the code and click Verify:
Once you verify your app, you will receive a list of recovery codes, which you should store in a safe place.
You can also click Download to get a CSV file with your recovery codes.
If you want to remove MFA from vStor, click on your on the topbar and select Remove Multifactor Authentication from the dropdown menu:
Now, provide your vStor password and password generated by your authentication app. Click Remove MFA to remove your authenticator:
Note. Once MFA is enabled, username and password authentication for the REST API will no longer be available. Use generated API keys for authentication instead. For more details, see .
