Set up an authenticator app

Created by Tanya Stoyanova, Modified on Wed, Aug 5 at 9:49 PM by Tanya Stoyanova

Contractbook supports two exclusive methods for 2FA login: the default email verification code, and a highly secure authenticator app (such as Google Authenticator or 1Password).

                

  • Click on your profile icon in the top right corner and select Profile settings.

  • Scroll down to the Two-factor authentication section.

  • Click the Set up button.

  • Scan the displayed QR code using your preferred authenticator app. 

                             

  • If you cannot scan it, click the Can’t scan the code? link to copy the manual Secret Key.

  • Click on the blue Continue button.

  • Type the 6-digit code from your external app into the Authenticator code verification field.

  • Click on the blue Confirm button to finish setup.

                         

Save your backup codes

  • Review the 10 single-use backup codes displayed on your screen.

  • Click Copy Codes or Download Codes to save them in a secure location.

                       

  • Click the I’ve saved my backup codes checkbox to complete. These codes are critical if you lose access to your device with the external application for the verification process.

                        

  • Once you have saved your backup codes, click on the blue Done button to complete.

             

Log in with 2FA

  • Navigate to the Contractbook login page and enter your password.

  • Type the 6-digit verification code requested on the screen.

  • If using the email method, check your inbox. If using the app, check your external authentication application.

  • Click the blue button to Verify and log in.

Frequently asked questions

  • What happens to 2FA if my company uses SSO? 

If your company enforces Single Sign-On (SSO) like Okta or Microsoft Entra ID, the 2FA step is always bypassed in Contractbook. Your login security is handled directly by your SSO provider.

  • What should I do if I lose my device or backup codes? 

If you lose your device and backup codes for a secured login to Contractbook, contact our Support team to get assistance in resetting your account authentication.
