Enable TOTP (Time-based one-time password)

Some websites/programs allow the use of TOTP as an extra layer of security to authenticate. This article will show you how to do that with 1password. In this example I will be using discord.

 

1. Login to your desired app as per normal and look for anywhere that says MFA or authenticator app.

   

2. Follow the prompts until the websitewebsite/app displays a QR code.

   

3. Open 1pass in the browser extension, click the 3 dots and select "scan QR code".

   

4. The new TOTP will appear in 1pass, here we can use it to activate it.

   

5. The process to find MFA will differ from website to website, but the 1pass activation with the QR code will be the same.
