Change Your Default Verification Method Using the My Profile Console

You can change your default verification method using the My Profile console if you are enrolled in more than one method.

Prerequisite: You must first enable 2-Step Verification. Most users do this when they first log in to Oracle Identity Cloud Service. If your administrator made 2-Step Authentication optional, and you have clicked Skip each time you log in, you can enable 2-Step Authentication in the My Profile console Security tab. See Enroll in 2-Step Verification After First Login.

1. Access the My Profile console by clicking your initials in the upper-right corner, and then select My Profile from the drop-down list.
2. Click Security.
   A check mark on the method pane indicates your current default verification method.
3. In the 2-Step Verification section, click the Action menu and select Change Default.
4. In the Change Default dialog box, select the method that you want to use as your default verification method.

   Note:

   Only those 2–Step Verification methods that you are enrolled in are displayed.
5. Click Done.

The check mark appears on the method pane that you just set as your default.
