Two-factor authentication

Add a second step to signing in.

The two-factor setup screen with a QR code and manual key for an authenticator app

Two-factor authentication asks for a code from your authenticator app after your password. SalesEQ uses time-based one-time codes, so any standard authenticator app works.

Meeting recordings are among the most sensitive things a sales team holds. They contain pricing, roadmaps, and customer conversations. A password on its own is thin protection for that.

If you sign in with Google

This applies to accounts that sign in with an email address and a password. If you signed up through Google or another provider, SalesEQ never sees a password to add a second step to. Manage two-factor authentication in that provider's account settings instead.

Settings tells you which case you are in: the authenticator option names your provider and offers no Enable button when your account came from one.

Turn it on

Open your security settings

Go to Settings, find Two-factor authentication, and select Enable.

Confirm your password

Enter your current password to start setup.

Scan the code

Scan the QR code with your authenticator app, then enter the current code to confirm.

Save your backup codes

SalesEQ shows a set of backup codes once setup finishes. Download or copy them before you close the dialog.

Verify it worked

Sign out and sign back in. After your password, SalesEQ asks for a code from your authenticator.

Before you finish

Set up your authenticator on a device you will still have next month, and keep your backup codes somewhere you can reach without that device. They are the way back in if you lose the authenticator.
