This article reviews managing Multi-Factor Authentication Method Enrollments for Users.
MFA Method Initial Configuration
When Multi-Factor Authentication is enabled, Users will be prompted to set up an MFA Method upon their first log in. The 'Set Up Authentication' process will walk the User through picking an Authentication Method and the configuration steps for it.
The available Authentication Methods are defined by the administrator for the User's organization and can include the following options:
Authenticator App
Email
Text/SMS
Phone
The first MFA Method configured will be set as the User's default method and will be automatically used when the User is prompted to authenticate their login. After an MFA Method has been configured, the User can view, update, add, or remove their MFA Method Enrollments on their User Record.
When more than one MFA Method is conjured, the User can manually select another option if they are unable to authenticate with the default option.
