![]() Want more 2FA goodness? Check out our other guides for Gmail, O365, and Apple ID as well. If you have the Slack app on your phone, it will offer to email you a “magic link” which will allow you to login in without having to enter a 2FA code. Now your Slack account is set up and configured for 2FA. Keep a copy of these codes somewhere safe (somewhere that doesn’t require your phone to access, obviously). Slack will display a panel of backup codes that you can use to access your account if you lose your phone. Finally, enter the code that’s been generated by your authenticator app. ![]() Hold your phone camera up to the QR code displayed by Slack, and follow the instructions in your app. In the second step, you’ll open your authenticator app and add an account. The first step in the process is to install your authenticator app, which we’ll assume you’ve done already. So if you need to add 2FA to more than one Slack instance, we’d recommend Authy or Google Authenticator. We got back in using backup codes, but it still wasn’t fun. However, when we added a second Slack instance, Authy and Google Authenticator correctly added it as a second account, but Microsoft Authenticator overwrote the first Slack account and locked us out of it. All three worked well for a single Slack instance. We tested Slack 2FA on three different authenticator apps: Authy, Google Authenticator, and Microsoft Authenticator.
