Two-factor authentication (2FA) adds an extra layer of security to your account by requiring more than just a password to log in. You can use an authenticator app from Google, Microsoft, Authy or simply use your email address.
Gridly offers the ability to set up 2FA for all members in your company or set it up only for your account.
Enforcing 2FA for your company
By enforcing 2FA for your company, your team members must use a 2-factor authentication method before they can log in to Gridly.
Only Owners and custom Company roles with similar privileges can enforce 2FA. Learn more in this article: Permission overview.
Owner: Open Security settings
- On the project page, open Company settings → Security, or you can open this link: https://app.gridly.com/settings/security
- Click Enforce in the Setting Two-factor Authentication (2FA) section.
Members: Select a 2FA method
Once enabled, your members will be logged out from the company and asked to set up the 2-factor authentication before they can access the company. Select between 2 methods: Authenticator app and Email address.
