Rename a 2–Step Verification Method

Use the 2–Step Verification section of the Security tab in Oracle Identity Cloud Service My Profile console to rename a verification method associated with your account.

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.

Note:

Only Mobile App methods can be renamed.

As an example, you might want to do this when you add another mobile number, and you want each name to be more descriptive.

  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.
  3. In the method pane for the method that you want to remove, click the Action menu Action menu and select Rename.
  4. Enter a new name for the method, and then click Save.
