Set Up a Third-Party Authenticator App as an Authentication Method

Enroll a third-party authenticator app as a 2–Step Verification method.

When multi-factor authentication (MFA) is enabled, the first time that you log in, the Select Your Default 2-Step Verification Method flow appears after you enter your user name and password.

1. Enter your user name and password in an MFA-protected environment.
   The 2-Step Verification page appears, and then you are prompted for your second verification method.
2. On the Enable 2-Step Verification introduction page, click Enable 2-Step Verification.
   The authentication methods available to you appear on the Select Your Default 2-Step Verification Method page.
3. Click Mobile App, and then select the Scan offline QR code check box.
4. Scan the offline version of the Quick Response (QR) code that appears for use with third-party authenticators. If you can’t scan the QR code, you are also given the option the enter the key manually. You can use either option with the third-party authenticator app. We recommend using the Oracle Mobile Authenticator as it supports notifications and many important security features.
5. After set up is complete on the Authenticator app, a one-time passcode (OTP) appears for your account in the third-party authenticator app. Enter that OTP on the Enable 2-Step Verification page, and then click Verify.
   The Successfully Enrolled page appears.
6. Click Done.
   To set up an additional method during enrollment, select another method from the bottom of the page, and then walk through the enrollment process for that method. Alternatively, you can set up additional methods later using the Security tab in the Oracle Identity Cloud Service My Profile console.
