Adding a Backup 2-Factor Method – Highly Recommended!

After the initial OneLogin setup, you will want to add a second, backup 2FA type.

  1. Once in OneLogin, click your name in the upper, right-hand corner, then choose “Profile.”
  2. Click on “Security Factors.”
  3. Click “Add Factor.”
  4. Choose your second Security Factor from the options. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the setup.
  5. Next to each security factor, you will see three dots. When you click on the dots, you can delete a 2FA method or select the method you want to set up as primary.
